GHHF Ghar Waapasi in Seetharam Puram Village near Kakinada – Met Christians individually and talked about Hindu Traditions and Bible.
Wheeler Wilcox((November 5, 1850 - October 30, 1919), American author and poet. said:
"India - The land of Vedas, the remarkable works contain not only religious ideas for a perfect life, but also facts which science has proved true. Electricity, radium, electronics, airship, all were known to the seers who founded the Vedas."
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to organize Ghar Waapasi in Seetharam Puram near Kakinada. Our Associate, Ajay Varma, who volunteered to participate in this effort has a long history of propagating the richness of Hindu Dharma. From the childhood he worked as a priest in their heritage Hanuman Temple and used do all kinds of Pujas, conduct homas, Satyanarayana Pujas and ,many festivals bring bringing everybody to these festivals. He is very enthusiastic about propagating and preserving Sanatana Dharma and gives lecture at different Temples depicting the greatness of our culture and age old traditions. He also has an experience of knocking on the doors of Christian families in and around Kakinada. He met them wherever he was able to approach and talk to them. Some of them he met at their houses, and some met in the neighborhood.
He was talking about the richness of Hinduism and especially about various customs and traditions. He talked about the significance of Kumkum on the forehead in between the eyebrows and Bangles on the wrist of the women. Kumkum is made of three components – turmeric, baking soda and lemon juice. mostly from Turmeric which is antiseptic and anti-allergic. Kumkum is consider auspicious and is used for wellbeing. It will protect the Ajneya Chakra – commanding center from distraction. In fact, it stores the positive energy and protect it from being drained. Some of the benefits of wearing Kumkum are relieve headache, relaxes the muscle on forehead, clears up sinuses, affects your hearing, calms your mind, beats insomnia and others. It is also believed that applying the Kumkum while pressing on the Ajneya chakra also affects the penial and pituitary glands that increase the memory system. It is also the symbol of married women.
It is a traditional custom for women to wear bangles around the wrist of the hand. Whenever we use hand for any anting to do, it creates friction which increases the blood circulation. Since the bangles are ring shaped, energy created by friction would circulate instead of depleted. During Seemantham, they women are gifted with bangles whose noise while walking creates stimuli to the fetus. In fact, it has many health benefits. Wearing silver bangles enhances not only a person's beauty but it is claimed it will also increase the health and mental condition. Another common claim is that silver bangles for women are known to fight infections. Furthermore, people believe that the bangles also help prevent cold and flu and many kinds of bacteria and viruses.
He distributed a four-page flyer which explains the rights of Hindus and how to encounter Christians who falsify Hindu Dharma, and how SC community people lose their reservations once they leave Hinduism. Similarly, he is distributing fifty-two page small book which describes the differences between Bhagavad Gita and Bible. As many people know that Bible contains many verses that are demeaning to humanity, promotes incest, encourages sexual promiscuity, violence, killings, stoning to death, cruelty, smashing of Idols, and other such bloody statements. One can look at the unrealistic statements from Bible. For example:
• Exodus 35:2 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a day of sabbath rest to the Lord. Whoever does any work on it is to be put to death.
It says whoever works on Sunday, they should be put to death. Look at all the shopping centers in USA and Europe and see how many millions of people go for shopping. Do we put all these people to death because they have not taken rest on the seventh day? How impractical it is?
Ajay Varma is visiting as many Christian families as possible either individually or collectively and talk of the atrocities committed by Christians around the world. Many Christians do not know what is written in the Bible. When he read some of the passages from the Bible many Christians are shocked. Thus, he is creating doubts in their mind about the holiness of the Bible.
