GHHF Ghar Waapasi in Anantapur District – Visited Two Villages in Settur Mandal and compared our religion with Christianity
Frederich von Schlegel (1772-1829), German philosopher, critic, and writer, the most prominent founder of German Romanticism
“The Indians possessed a knowledge of the true God, conceived and expressed in noble, clear and grand language…Even the loftiest philosophy of the Europeans, the idealization of reason, as set forth by the Greeks, appears in comparison with the abundant light and vigor of oriental idealism, like a feeble spark in the full flood of the noonday sun.”
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to welcome four Pracharaks who have committed to work at the ground level and visited three villages to talk about the richness of Sanatana Dharma and how it is different from Christianity. The discussion started with one of the Priests named Sri Gopi Chary whom we know for the last four years. Near Anantapur, about ten kilometers away, GHHF helped build Sri Rama Temple and performed Pranaprathishta. Sri Gopi Chary is very accommodating and forward-looking. He came to the Dalit Village performed all pujas, tied Rakshas to all Dalits, gave prasadam and offered theertham irrespective of their caste or status. He became extremely popular in the community.
From April 1st, under the guidance of Sri Gopi Chary, three Pracharak’s have been going to villages with a mission to highlight the richness of Sanatana Dharma. They organized a meeting with the Christian families and gave information about the differences between Christianity and Hinduism. They distributed the 4-page document about the rights of Hindus and how to encounter Christian aggression.
They visited two villages in Settur Mandalam where they were able to meet with ten Christian families and explained the differences between the two religions. They were very receptive and come to know more about Sanatana Dharma. As we all know, an overwhelming majority of Hindus do not know the basic principles of Sanatana Dharma. Consequently, it is easy to fall prey to the deceptive presentation of our faith and glorify their Christian religion. It is a major task for all of us to open the eyes of the Hindus who converted to Hinduism.
