[GHHF] Large Hindu meeting was organized to discuss the programs we are conducting and to discuss the future Plans – Hindu Hostel and Hindu Study Center with local help in Guntur, Andhra.
“If Hinduism has a defining message, then it is humanism. There is space in its philosophy for everyone, which is one reason why India is a home to every single religion in the world. Anyone who has been persecuted anywhere else has found an undisturbed haven in India. This remained true even when men distorted the philosophy of Hinduism and introduced the inequities of caste: The attitude of Hinduism to other faiths continued to be liberal. Hinduism is synonymous with humanism. That is its essence and its great liberating quality." M J Akbar
The meeting was organized at Yajnavalka Kshetra in Pandaripuram, Guntur town under the auspices of Global Hindu Heritage Foundation. In this meeting, the main purpose of the meeting was to describe the many programs already being done under the auspices of the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation and to request participants to participate in those programs.
Sri Srinivas Pinnamaneni and Sri Rajesh Talked about various projects undertaken by GHHF and the future plans to bring unity among Hindus and also provide services that would help the needed Hindus. Many youth come from various villages and go to colleges and universities. They will always be looking for facilities they need.
Based on the assessment of the needs of the youngsters, the idea of opening The Hindu Hostel and Hindu Study Center in Guntur town in the future was discussed. Also Hindu Help Line project which is already under construction was discussed. After explaining about these projects, there was a great response from the Hindu brothers. They informed that it is a pleasure to continue doing so many wonderful programs and that they will also participate in the programs. Also, it is very gratifying to hear from many people that they will give one quintal (1000 kg) of rice every year if Hindu Hostel is opened.
Guntur residents have been very supportive of the activities of Global Hindu Heritage Foundation. Thera are about 18 Bala Samskar Kendras are operating within the area. May parents have taken interest in supporting the activities and helping the Teachers in a number of ways.
What is Bala Samskar?
Our children are our strength. They are our future. They are going to be our Ambassadors to Hindu Dharma in preserving, protecting, and propagating our ancient civilization. For centuries, we as Hindus failed to transmit the knowledge to our next generations. With no knowledge about our faith and with no pride in the universality and non-violence of Sanatana Dharma, our children as well as adults have become targets for Christians to convert. They have used plethora of deceptive tactics to woo our Hindus to Christianity as we are not able to defend our religion and also not able to question the barbaric nature of the Bible. We have become defenseless and not equipped with any knowledge about our heritage.
Hundred and hundreds of Western scholars, Nobel laureates, Literary giants and spiritual titans have applauded the universality of Hinduism, its non-sectarian, non-violent, peaceful, and tolerant philosophy. As Arnold Toynbee stated it is only the spirituality and ahimsa can save the world from self-destruction. Francois Gautier announces that “the knowledge that stands behind Hinduism, can save the world.”
Knowledge is power. GHHF would like to impart the knowledge that will be useful for them as well as for the future generation.
Why Bala Samskar Planned?
Bala Samskars / Sunday Schools are being planned for two purposes:
1) To teach about the richness and glory of our Sanatana Dharma. It’s eternal nature, its scientific advances, depth of knowledge in our scriptures, and its universal appeal to the humanity.
2) Also prevent the Christian aggressive missionary threat to Hinduism. Children are lured away by the Christians bribing them with many unnecessary needs to attract them. They give Chocolates, pens, pencils, and promises of many material things and invite them to Churches and start brainwashing them to believe in their religion and teach them to hate Hinduism.
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is planning to start BALA SAMSKAR on Sundays as well as weekdays to impart the richness of Hindu Heritage that enunciated peace, harmony, inclusiveness, self-improvement, and universal welfare. Our Sunday School will discuss contributions Hinduism mage in the fields of education, mathematics, astronomy. Arithmetic, quantum mechanics, metallurgy, surgery, medicine, dentistry, infinity, zero. Cosmology, literature, yoga and meditation and other subjects.
Our children will recite Hindu invocation dealing with universal kinship and well-being:
Om sarve bhavantu sukhinah. Sarve santu niraamayaah. Sarve bhadraani pashyantu. Maa kaschid dukhbhaag bhavet.
“May all beings be happy. May all beings be healthy. May all beings experience prosperity. May none in the world suffer.”
