Mass Conversions




   "Stop all conversions, it is the
deadliest poison that ever sapped the
          fountain of truth"
Mass Conversions




 -15,018 persons converted in single day in Ongole
 -10,000 churches planned in 2005 alone, by just one group,
 the Seventh Day Adventists.
Kyle Fiess, Maranatha (Org for building churches) marketing director reports:
"We were astonished when Ron Watts (head of Seventh Day Adventists) presented us
with a proposal for 10,000 churches in India…After many experiences like the one in
Ongole, we no longer consider 10,000 churches to be an unrealistic goal, but an
unparalleled opportunity”.

Mass Conversions




In 1998, the Seventh Adventist Church reported 225,000
members. In 2005, the numbers reached 825,000.
“Most of the people in the villages are from a Hindu
background, so it was gratifying to see so many people
accepting Jesus," said Stenbakken (Seventh Day Adventist).
This much conversion by just one organization. There are
several other organizations working in parallel.
Mass Conversions

Goal of 100 Million Hindu Converts
 Declared by Reverend Pat Robertson in
 Dallas Christian Conclave in Oct 2005

Worldwide Goal of One Billion
 Declared in the same conclave, to make

                                                church. Each church costs 5000$/-

Mass Conversions

Christian Population of India: 10%
 Many do not reveal the true situation
fearing loss of reservation status
 Churches do not want to raise alarm bells
Christian population of Andhra: 6.96%
 Data from 2001 per Joshua Missionary -
 current population could be up to 17%
 At this rate, Andhra Pradesh could
 become Christian in a decade or less
Tamil Nadu could be up to 28%
Mass Conversions

 Vote bank of 45% (25% Christian + 20%
Muslim) only is needed for any political
party to get power in India (by dividing the
Hindu vote)
 Lesson from History: Four North Eastern
States of India with 75% to 95% Christian
population from aggressive conversion.
They were Hindu majority in 1948. Now
want to separate from India.
Missionary
 Planning
“An Empire of Unprecedented
Scale & Planning, with little
scruples.”
“Per 1989 data, globally, churches spend 145 billion
dollars, command four million full time workers, run
13,000 libraries, publish 22,000 periodicals and four
billion tracts a year, operate 1,890 radio and TV
stations. There are a quarter million foreign
missionaries, over 400 institutions to train them.”

Strategies
Control of Media- Continued
- Aggressively push Christianity by buying up prime time
  slots for sermons on TV.
- All out effort to stop Hindu devotional programs.
  Attack on Eenadu has a lot to do with telecast of
  Hindu devotional programs.
- Use the media to dilute Hindu faith. An example is the
  recent show, Jyothi of Sabarimalai on NDTV,
  questioning the Hindu faith.
Strategies
Why Control of Media?

This is a key step required
 before carrying out illegal
 mass conversions with
 deception and untruth
Strategies
Convert Popular People in Society
E.g., Telugu actors Jayaprada and Jaya Sudha are
  converted. Many others are being targeted and
  converted.
Strategies
            Buy out the Politicians
  Apparently many politicians or their spouses
  are converted using very large sums of money.
  Specifics are hard to get because they do not
  change their name or way of dress. One thing
  for sure, the silence of many politicians cannot
  be other than that bought with money.
(There are hearsays but cannot be confirmed is that leading people or
   their spouses in BJP, TDP, DMK, Congress are converted).
Strategies
Use of Raw Muscle & Money Power
 Eyewitness accounts relate
how village musclemen are
recruited, and money power used, to
systematically convert village after
village, in specific pockets of India
such as coastal Andhra.
Strategies
       Ward off resistance from Hindu
                 organizations
By engineering news of attack using media as a tool.

 E.g., Baripada Incident in Orissa: News that was splashed all over the
 media and the Internet, that a Hindu fundamentalist raped a nun, was
 found to be totally fabricated, upon later investigation. However, the
 media does not even bother to publish later findings. The initial news
 items are still being used to get more money from Churchgoers in
 West. Many such cases are engineered or full of lies.

Strategies
Defame any Hindu Saint that resists

              Kanchi Sankaracharya Jayendra
              Saraswati’s arrest on framed-up
              charges has a lot to do with his
              efforts in bringing Dalits into the
              Hindu fold by building Hindu
              temples in Dalit areas and
              engaging in discussions with
              them. (To this day no evidence
              was found against him)
                 -- Source: NS Raja Ram articles
Strategies
Eliminate any Hindu Saint that blocks
             conversions
                            Murder of 84 year old Swami
                            Laxmananda before Krishna
                        Janmashtami festival with AK-47 and
                           Axes is because his successful
                        development work with Orissa tribals
                           during last 40 years had been a
                       hindrance to proselytization. He and his
                        disciples Swami Arupananda, Swami
                        Chinmayananda and Mata Bhaktimayi
                        were murdered in the presence of 130
                                 Orphange Children.

 There were 9 attempts to assasinate him and in spite of
requests for protection, Government failed to protect him.
Strategies
     Destroy Hinduism Completely
   by Converting Targeted Populations

Joshua Project Thessalonica

 No More Hindu Temples and Celebrations
Seek out and convert temple building masons and architects, so that
no new Temples can ever be built in the world. Convert people
involved in the Hindu festival (e.g. Kumbh Mela) infrastructure, such as
boatsmen, etc., so that devotees will be so inconvenienced as not to
come for such Melas.

-- Source: Croatian newspaper (www.crusadewatch.org)
Strategies
  Destroy any organization that
       supports Hinduism

- IDRF, which funds humanitarian projects, some
  led by the Sangh Parivar, was deprived of all
  corporate matching funds by spreading false
  news to US corporations.

                - Source: lots on the Internet
Strategies
  Garner the support of powerful
    politicians and bureaucrats
NS Rajaram, a well known historian, says that missionaries
have the tacit support of Sonia Gandhi (nee Antonia Maino,
a Roman Catholic). YSR would not be so brazen but for
that support. Institutional Anti-Hinduism of the UPA (led
by Sonia) must have a lot to do with this.

All close confidants of Sonia are Christians and it is said
that there are 5 Christian Chief Ministers in India today.

Foreigners are providing strategy planning for Sonia/UPA
today.                           - NS Rajaram & others
Strategies
Defame our Revered Hindu Gods, Saints,
        Leaders and Scriptures

  Reinterpret traditional stories of our saints
  and scriptures to spread false stories. Many
  interpretations implicate sexual impropriety
        on our Gods, saints and leaders.
Some examples:-
Ramakrishna Paramahamsa: Homosexual
Mahatma Gandhi: Sexual pervert who spend life cleaning latrines
Sai Baba: Homosexual
Vivekananda: Attempt at seduction charge when in the US
Jayendra Saraswati: Improper relationships with a woman
Deepak Chopra: Extra-marital relationship
Strategies

Fool the gullible with Hindu religious
         practices, customs.

  Missionaries wear Sadhu dresses, perform
 arati, and burn incense, to give impression
 that very little has changed

  A prayer hall in Kerala has meditating
 Jesus in Padmasana posture!
Strategies

Adoption of Hindu arts and culture
 for their own ends (Acculturation)
Recently Vatican was given Bharata Natyam
performance of Christ birth!

Christian Yoga where names of asanas are
changed and no trace of Hinduism kept.
Strategies
Convert with goods and allurement

Right to use a bore well pump in front of church (placed
with Government money) requires conversion. Called
Jesus Wells, this is targeted at drought areas.

During disasters, goods are given to the suffering victims
subject to agreeing to convert. (For e.g., a boat is given to
a fisherman who is a Tsunami victim only if he agrees to
convert).
Strategies
Convert with goods and allurement




Poor Village Women have             Jesus Wells dug right in front of
option walking ½ mile to fetch      church. Pastor makes sure no
water, or convert and get it just   Non-Believers can draw water.

Strategies
Convert with goods and allurement
Exploit disaster victims’ helplessness as an
opportunity to convert.

 "This Tsunami disaster is one of the greatest opportunities God
 has given us to share his love with people," said K.P. Yohannan,
 president of the Texas-based Gospel for Asia.

 "I'm not here to do relief work," said John. His calling was
 missionary work, he admitted. "They are looking for answers,"
 he said of the disaster victims, whom he described as particularly
 good candidates for conversion.

Strategies

False and deceptive stories to create
      fear and force conversion
Missionaries target the gullible and the poor:
 Tell them that their worship of Hindu forms is the
 worship of the Devil or Satan
 Create among them a great fear of Hell
 Tell them that they are poor because they did not
 convert
        -- Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting our Souls
Strategies
Use of established Christian institutions
     as new venues for conversion
 Christian schools and teachers’ colleges in some
 areas demanding conversion for getting admitted
 Bible is openly read to children in these schools
 Children going to Christian schools with Hindu
 customs are discouraged (Recent example of a
 child in a Hyderabad school being beaten by his
 teacher for wearing kumkum).
Strategies
Precise demographic and other data

Missionaries have precise demographic data on
every village, the main obstacles for conversion,
etc.
They print literally millions of books in every
language of India (the biggest such publishing
house is deceptively named ‘Om Publishing’).



                   Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting Our Souls
Strategies
  Use the converted to gain more
  converts & even encourage them
     destroy Hindu institutions
Converted person is told to demonstrate that they
are truly converted by getting others to convert.
More people they convert, more their faith!

Converts are even encouraged to destroy temples

  … Of particular concern to this study is the
application of Church Planting Movement strategy

 The paper concludes that the best approach to
 facilitating a Church Planting Movement among
forward caste Hindus is by not planting churches.

        Legitimizing Conversion

 Missionaries are now demanding constitutional
changes to provide converts the same status as
Scheduled and Backward Caste Hindus

 Many converts retain Hindu names and identities
fearing the loss of their reservation status




            Source: http://www.crusadewatch.org
Strategies
      Fundamental Premises
 Do whatever is necessary with the
Power of Money and Organization,
albeit with Deception and Lies, to
increase their numbers and therefore
the power of the Church
Their methods go against the very
teachings of Jesus that they claim to
be promoting – End justifies the Means
Strategies
  It should be noted that there is genuine
   service performed by some missionaries
     that are helping those ignored by the
country, but this is due to the altruistic spirit
    of those individuals. Church has little
interest in them other than that they become
 symbols of good Public Relations and help
     bring in more converts. Services are
 provided only until conversion is complete.
    Every effort made to make conversion
 irrevocable by such actions as eating beef.
Strategies
Church interest in service is for
 conversions, period.
 Their interest in India is because of
 dwindling church attendance in Europe and
 the need for a fresh crop of followers,
 clergy, etc.
 There are thousands of non-Christian NGO’s
 providing service in India that get little attention.
 And they do not try to convert and provide
 service irrespective of religious affiliation).
Strategies
If only Missionaries are true to Jesus

1. Judge not, that ye be not judged.

2. For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be
   judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be
   measured to you again.

3. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine
   own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast
   out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
Missionary
 Finances
Missionary Finances
Per 1989 statistics, the total amount
 was $145 billion; It could be over
 $300 billion now. A good fraction of
 this, amounting to millions of dollars,
 is sent to India for conversion.
- Themethods used to collect from many churches leaves a lot to
 be desired: blatant lies about other cultures, coercion by
 deception such as “pay if you want to go to heaven”, etc.

                        Source: www.crusadewatch.org
Missionary Finances
Fronted by service organizations such as
  World Vision:
 These organizations parade as “secular” NGOs and
 ironically even Hindus help them collect funds using
 events such as benefit cricket matches for Tsunami
 Disaster Relief. Only a small amount of the funds
 are used for relief and development activities, rest
 used for conversion.
Missionary Finances
     US Government Support
 Joshua Project is supported by the US Govt:
Rising India becoming Christian is in best
interests of US.
 Clinton, during his presidency asked a
Japanese CEO to support a Christian charity in
India, and it was immediately acted upon.
 Political support – US Government responds to
false stories and takes it up with India

              Donations to Mother Teresa?
Does anyone know of a fully equipped hospital run by Mother
  Teresa? Does anyone understand why people with different
  diseases such as TB, Cancer, etc., are all huddled in the
  same environment. That is because Mother Teresa
  believed that it was good for them to suffer as Christ did and
  so long as they were baptized before death, they would go
  to heaven and enjoy pleasures. She took the best care for
  her own illness, though. No one knows what happened to
  literally millions of dollars collected for the Calcutta poor.

Holocaust of
    Hindu Culture
(The Grand Plan of the Missionaries
 along with the Communists, Atheists
       and the Congress Party)
Holocaust of Hindu Culture:
             Missionaries, leftists, the new Nazis?
1. Build the framework
  For Nazis it was Mein Kampf, Nazi Party formation. For
    missionaries, initially schools, spread of false stories on
    Hindu saints, background conversions etc. For leftists it is
    establishment of base states.

2. Grab the power
  Nazis gained power using the resentment after the First World
    War. Missionaries have gained unprecedented power with
    Catholic Sonia’s rise to power. Leftists in UPA Govt has
    enormous bargaining power. Now, it is a matter of spending
    few million dollars to buy up the politicians of all parties.
Holocaust of Hindu Culture:
               Missionaries, Leftists the new Nazis?
3. Capture the media
Nazis used the media as propaganda machines. They systematically
  spread false things about Jews and about Aryan supremacy and
  even gave out free radios. Missionaries engineer attacks on Hindu
  institutions and use the media to propagate and suppress their
  nefarious activities, such as mass scale conversions. Leftist pseudo
  secularists has filled up all media posts and set a false propaganda.
  Arrest our saints and conduct trial by media.

4. Exploit disorganization of victims:
Jews were hardly organized and lived in their own communities. Hindus
  are no different. Worse, Hindus are fragmented by traditions, castes,
  languages, etc. Hindu saints are never one force. Convenient for the
  missionaries and leftists to wipe them out.
Holocaust of Hindu Culture:
                   Missionaries, leftists the new Nazis?
5.   Cripple economically
     Nazis destroyed all Jewish businesses. They crippled them economically
       and even took every thing on their body including their hair.
       Missionaries, along with politicians, are looting temples, selling away all
       the lands and using the same money for building churches and
       mosques. They are usurping Yoga as Christian Yoga and Hindu arts
       such as Bharatanatyam are Jesus Natyam.

6. Final wipeout
     Nazis did this via concentration camps. Hindus won’t be able to continue
       daily life on the streets, there will not be any temples they can go to,
       cannot send children to most schools. Christians and Muslims will get
       reservation and preference in the economy and Hindus, especially all
       the forward castes, will be the new pariahs of this century in India,
       unless they convert.
Problems with
 Conversion
Problems with Conversion
Conversion is violence. It perpetrates violence by separating
families and telling many bad things about their religion.
 The guilt caused by conversion is masked by creating
hatred. Some missionaries even direct that guilt to demolish
temples. That is why Mahatma Gandhi and Vivekananda
called Conversion as Perversion.
It will divide the country and sows the seeds for
unimaginable problems for the future of the country. The
four North Eastern States, where Hindus were in majority as
late as 1947, are now 75% to 95% Christian and are
engaging in terrorism and want to separate from India.
Problems with Conversion
Most missionaries are Jehadis. They believe that either
convert or demolish the non-believer and that they will go to
heaven, if they convert.

Fundamentalist Muslims are another kind of Jehadis that
believe, either convert or kill the infidel and believe that killing
infidels will take them to heaven. Both have the Word of God.

 These two groups have the potential to make Lebanon out of
India.
Problems with Conversion
   How the Pope Feels about Hindus
“Make no mistake about it. The Pope is not a friend of the Hindus. His
  visit is organized to promote his evangelization activities, his targeting
  of Hindu India for Christian conversion. The Pope wants to convert
  Hindu India to Christianity. He would be happy if all Hindu temples
  were abandoned in favor of churches. He would be happy if all the
  swamis, sadhus and yogis either became Christian priests or
  disappeared altogether. He has no praise for a Ramana Maharshi, a Sri
  Aurobindo, a Ramakrishna, or a Shankaracharya. He does not honor
  the Vedas and the Gita like the Bible. He does not allow pujas to the
  Gods or the chanting of Om in churches. He has nowhere apologized
  for the use of the Inquisition in India or elsewhere. He has nowhere
  said that Hindus won't go to hell. He may claim to honor India's
  spiritual traditions but not to the extent that it requires him giving up
  his efforts to convert Hindus.”

 Corruption occurred in both Congress and TDP administrations, but the unscrupulous activites of current
YSR Government is most colossal and unprecedented that threatens the very survival of Hindu Institutions.

• 3000 acres temple land in East Godavari was sold.
• Sold 9201 acres of rural temple land
• Decided to sell 7000 acres of urban lands worth
20,000 crores

Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, son of Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy
once again publicly affirmed his family's intolerance towards
the Hindu religion by blowing up the Sunkulamma Temple in
Obullapuram Village in Anantapur District. Jagan and his friend
Janardhan Reddy used powerful bombs and grounded the
Temple which is highly revered by the locals. Though some
Congressmen claimed that Jagan did that as part of his illegal
iron mining business, questions are being raised about whether
he would have blown up a church under similar circumstances.

          -- Report by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar & India Today
Maharashtra Proposal to Take Over Four
 Lakh Temple Trusts (Mosques Excluded)

MUMBAI, MAHARASHTRA, November 13, 2006: The
Maharashtra government is proposing legislation which
will empower the state to take over all religious shrines.
If the legislation is enacted it will place all Hindu, Jain,
Christian and Buddhist shrines under government
control. The law, however, makes no mention of Aukaf
land (Muslim religious bequests) which are located all
over the state.

This is the first step in the systematic destruction of
Hindu institutions in Maharashtra (similar to AP)
State Looting and Bloated
        Bureaucracies

State Governments own most of the
Hindu Temples (by way of Temple
Endowment Boards) whereas Mosques
and Churches have complete autonomy.
15% of temple income is used just to
pay the salaries of the 70,000 employees
of the Endowment Board in AP.
“In a period of 5 years, 50,000
(25%) temples closed for want
 of funds. Priests do not want
     to train their children
           anymore.”
-- Report by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
 Contrast this with just one Seventh Day Adventist
Group’s plan to build 10,000 churches in India in just
  one year (2005) (mostly in A.P with patronage of
             current A.P Government).
Vote Bank
 Politics
25% Muslim +
15% Christian
 (With Hindu Vote Divided)
Is all that is needed to grab
     power in India today
• With proliferation and illegal
  immigration from Bangla Desh,
  Muslims can be upto 25%,
  some say even 30%.
• Wahabi’s (Saudi’s) are building
 madrassas all over India for
 immersion into militant Islam.
Rampant Conversion causing
     tremendous increase in Christian
                 population.
• 17% in AP.
• 28% in TN
• 75-95% in 4 NE States.
By 2009, will be easily 12% to 15%
 countrywide.
UPA and Sachar Drama is to
    grab Muslim Votes
Special reservation to Muslims in all spheres
with no regard for poor among other
communities
Terrorist Afzal’s hanging drama
Increasing violence of Muslims (Bangalore, MP)
on Hindus with new boldness
UPA going to ridiculous extent to appease the
minorities.
Sonia/Congress Grand Plan
                (no matter what the cost to the country)

• Deification of Sonia as the country’s leader with eventual
  handover to her son Rahul, is the game plan.
• Capture of media by missionaries/leftists will help ensure the
  continuance of Sonia as the leader.
• Sonia and the Vatican/Missionary Establishment guarantees
  Christian Votes. Muslim appeasement guarantees Muslim
  votes.
•    Capture backward caste Hindu votes by diving Hindus into
    forward and backward castes via reservations, etc.
• It is an all out game to install Rahul, with little consideration to
  the democratic institutions of the country (e.g. Jharkhand, Goa,
  Bihar).
SONIA WITH EVANGELISTS
Marginalization of any Progressive Muslims


 Not providing the strength to progressive
Muslims to come forward and join the
mainstream is a sad testimony to total lack of
vision in politics.
The current state of Muslims is the result of
simply pandering to Muslim fundamentalism
(e.g. Shah Bano case, Uniform Civil Code, etc).
Lack of Muslim development is also a result of
years of Congress rule of vote bank politics.
Dushta Chatushtayam
• Missionaries
• Muslim Fundamentalists
• The Congress Party
• The Communists
What are the
 Dangers to the
Hindus and India
The Vote Bank Politics will result in
complete Marginalization of Hindus
     It is already happening at all levels.
All Sonia’s close confidants are Christians and
      there are 5 Christian CM’s in India.
    Violence on Hindus is of little interest to the
   Establishment (recent Bangalore and the MP
            experiences is a testimony)
Hindu Temples and Institutions will be
systematically destroyed
   Andhra Pradesh, with a Christian CM, is
the model state for others
   Hindu Festivals Holi and Janmashtami
are no more compulsory holidays in India
(recent Govt. GO)
As India becomes Muslim and
 Christian pockets, Hindus will have to
        either convert or perish.
Telling recent example in Tamilnadu:

In Thondi and Rasathipuram Municipalities (in Ramanathpuram and
Vellore Districts), the local bodies were secured by Muslims. Both
Municipalities have denied civic amenities, funds for schools, garbage
clearing etc., and sent notices in Urdu. Hindus were bluntly told to
convert to Islam if they wanted civic facilities.

Madrassas and mosques, particularly the Saudi Arabian supported
Wahabis have little tolerance for Kuffars (those who do not follow
Muslim religion). Muslim children are continuously taught that Hinduism
is a false religion. (See Youtube for what is taught in Wahabi supported
mosques).
Hindus can end up as refugees or have
to accept second class citizen status in
           their own country
                 Today half million Hindus are
                 refugees for more than a
                 decade in Kashmir and the
                 world (and India) hardly care.
                 They are dying in large
                 numbers due to disease.
                 Why can’t this happen happen in other
                 states as the Muslim and Christian
                 populations increase?
Hindus will not be able to follow
             their customs
In the name of conversion, married Hindu women were
being prevented from wearing tilak, mangala sutra or
flowers in their hair, the traditional attributes of married
women in Tamil culture; this was also impacting badly
upon the social fabric.

-- AIADMK leader from Uppalam constituency in State Assembly (New
Indian Express, April 18, 2003)

Sandhya Jain, Jan 14, 2007, Organiser article.
Hindus with No Media Support will be
           Increasingly Marginalised
1. Kashmir Pandits Plight
2. Temple Destruction in Malaysia
3. M.F.Hussain’s depiction of Hindu Gods
4. Hardly anything positive on Hindus & Hindu events in
   Indian and Western Media (compare with the
   coverage for other faiths)
5. Magnification of perceived Hindu weaknesses such
   as casteism, dowry, etc. (which are really social
   problems).
What is happening to Hindus around the World
                       is a Good Indication
     Phenomenal decrease in Hindu population &
           take over of Hindu properties
 It is said 75% of Malaysian Hindus may convert in next 5 years.
  100 year old Temples are being destroyed unscrupulously in
  Malaysia right now.
 Hindu Population in Pakistan in 1947 was 10% and now 2%.
 Hindu Population in Bangladesh in 1947 was 30% and now
 9%.

What is happening to Hindus around World
                         is a Good Indication

                  Forcible Conversions in Pakistan

In October 2005, three young daughters, Reena, Usha and Rima,
of marriageable age, of Hindu parents in Karachi, vanished. In a
few days, the shocked parents received a courier package
containing three identical affidavits from their daughters stating
that they had all converted to Islam and, therefore, could not live
with their Hindu parents.

The ongoing trend in Pakistan and Bangladesh indicates that Hindu girls have
been kidnapped, forcibly married, and coerced to convert, but as helpless
Hindus in Pakistan, their parents have no hope for justice. And this can happen
to any Hindu parent in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

2005, http://www.dawn.com/weekly/mazdak/20051203.htm
Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored
       Christian & Muslim Rulers’ Atrocities

  Muslim Rulers were ruthless, converted most by force
   Hindu Kush derives its name from the mass killing of Hindus
   that runs into millions. Their practices include slitting throats to
   kill (it is their belief that the suffering from the blood draining
   will redeem the sins of being an infidel). Just one cold night,
   100,000 thousand Hindu slaves were killed there during the
   reign of Timur Lenk (1398-99)
  50,000 Hindus were killed in one attack on Somnath temple by
Mahmud of Ghazni.
  On Feb 24, 1568, Emperor Akbar ordered the killing of 30,000
captured Rajput Hindus.
Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored
       Christian & Muslim rulers atrocities

  Portuguese Inquisition of the Church on those who did
not convert, is need to be known by every Hindu.
Cutting of male genitals and female breasts are some of
the punishments given for not converting!

  It is now acknowledged that Gypsies in Europe
originated as Hindu slaves brought by Muslims from
India. Many were killed in the Nazi Holocaust.

  The increase in lower castes from 1% to 15% is said
to have occurred during the Muslim rule when higher
castes accepted the status of ‘Dhimmi’ as punishment
for refusing to convert.
Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored


    "Let it be said right away: the massacres
perpetrated by Muslims in India are unparalleled
in history, bigger than the holocaust of the Jews
by the Nazis; or the massacre of the Armenians
   by the Turks; more extensive even than the
     slaughter of the South American native
    populations by the invading Spanish and
                   Portuguese."
                           -- Francois Gautier
India can very well be divided again
  Muslims appeasement by the British between
1900 and 1947 resulted in the Partition of India
  Blatant minority appeasement and sanctioning
of unscrupulous conversion by Sonia/UPA could
lead to a splintered nation.
  We lost Kashmir and may soon lose Assam
and the North East.
Summary
Hindus who are complacent, need to understand the
  consequences, if the current situation continues.
  Missionaries, in a democracy with a highly corrupt
  political system, culturally deprived intelligentsia,
  with billions of dollars and little scruples, have the
  potential to convert a majority of India’s population in
  just a few years. This, along with vote bank politics,
  can result in complete marginalization of Hindus and
  the division of India. Those who do not convert will
  be at an enormous disadvantage economically and
  spiritually.
   It took only two decades to convert Buddhist South Korea to Christian South
 Korea. Once a majority is obtained, other religions will be severely discriminated.
Hindu Apathy and
   Ignorance
“An Indian (Hindu) is culturally
  more concerned about himself
   and his family, educating his
  children, making his life better,
       as opposed to group
    advancement. He is highly
    individualistic. That is what
   reduces his political power."
-- Trinidad’s Former Prime Minister in an interview
          to India Abroad (Jan 11, 2005)
Muslims Are Bullies,
Hindus are Cowards.
  -- Mahatma Gandhi
Hindu spiritual leaders, with a few
 exceptions, have a complete lack of vision
  Each Acharya is busy with their small World
  Do not speak against the caste system
   Do not take care of Dalits or challenge the
blocking of their entry into temples
   Their attitude reflected is in higher caste
Hindus
   Even today higher caste Hindu’s matrimonial
columns is full of caste requirements.
Best Educated, left the Country for
            Greener Pastures
   Few recognize that in spite of its poorness it is
the India’s poor who financed the education of
those who left the country.
   Indian political field is mostly left to
incompetents and criminals.
  Misguided Hindu political leaders (Congress,
Communists, DMK etc) who think they stand a
chance after Muslim and Christian majority
comes about.
Lack of Vision of Our Leaders
            and the Media
• Lack of vision seems to have started from
Nehru himself and became worse with his
descendants
• Not understanding what Muslim appeasement
can do started from Mahatma Gandhi himself
• Pseudo-secular media which thinks anything
anti-Hindu is worth a few more brownie points
Improper Response Of Hindus


Hindus either over-react or not act at all.
Both are not going to help. They need to
learn the PR and smoothness of Christian
organizations and the Organized Voting
Bloc philosophy of the Muslims.
Belief that Christianity is more humane
Hinduism is the only culture that did not invade, murder and
subjugate other countries or cultures for wealth and power, in the
name of religion.
Casteism pales in comparison with 50 million Africans killed in
slave boats, 200+ years of slavery with church justification of
Africans having no soul, lynchings of young African Americans,
decimation of Native Americans with things like disease infected
blankets, colonization of Africa, Americas and Asia and sapping
their economy totally causing famines and living skeletons, Nazi
holocaust of 10 million, burning of witches.
S. African leader Desmond Tutu said, “When missionaries came
we had the land and they had the bible, we closed our eyes for
prayer and opened them, only to find that they had the land and
we had the bible.”
Belief that Conversion is Good because
  it brings service to ignored people
Hindus who think that conversion is the price we
have to pay for the service rendered by missionaries,
need to consider Mahatma Gandhi’s and
Vivekananda’s thoughts on this. Conversion
changes the very fabric of a country, that has
somehow survived and retains a 10,000 year old
culture, and can further disintegrate it. They have to
be prepared to convert or accept second class
status.
Not Understanding the Greatness of
               Hinduism
“If there is one place on the face of the earth where all
the dreams of living men have found a home from the
very earliest days when man began the dream of
existence, it is India....For more than 30 centuries, the
tree of vision, with all its thousand branches and their
millions of twigs, has sprung from this torrid land, the
burning womb of the Gods. It renews itself tirelessly
showing no signs of decay.”

-- Romaine Rolland, Nobel Laureate
Not Understanding the Greatness of
                 Hinduism

"In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous
and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavat Geeta,
since whose composition years of the gods have
elapsed, and in comparison with which our modern
world and its literature seem puny and trivial;”

-- Henry David Thoreau,          American Philosopher, Unitarian, social critic,
transcendentalist and writer, whose writings provided roots for liberalism in America.

Sonia and conversions

  • 1. Hinduism under Threat! www.hhrw.org
  • 2. Hinduism under Threat! 1. Mass Conversions 2. Terrorism 3. Destruction of Hindu Institutions 4. Vote Bank Politics 5. Hindu Apathy and Ignorance 6. Solutions
  • 3. Mass Conversions "Stop all conversions, it is the deadliest poison that ever sapped the fountain of truth"
  • 4. Mass Conversions -15,018 persons converted in single day in Ongole -10,000 churches planned in 2005 alone, by just one group, the Seventh Day Adventists. Kyle Fiess, Maranatha (Org for building churches) marketing director reports: "We were astonished when Ron Watts (head of Seventh Day Adventists) presented us with a proposal for 10,000 churches in India…After many experiences like the one in Ongole, we no longer consider 10,000 churches to be an unrealistic goal, but an unparalleled opportunity”. http://www.christianaggression.org/item_display.php?type=NEWS&id=1103997730 article has links to may missionary websites.
  • 5. Mass Conversions In 1998, the Seventh Adventist Church reported 225,000 members. In 2005, the numbers reached 825,000. “Most of the people in the villages are from a Hindu background, so it was gratifying to see so many people accepting Jesus," said Stenbakken (Seventh Day Adventist). This much conversion by just one organization. There are several other organizations working in parallel.
  • 6. Mass Conversions Goal of 100 Million Hindu Converts Declared by Reverend Pat Robertson in Dallas Christian Conclave in Oct 2005 Worldwide Goal of One Billion Declared in the same conclave, to make up for losses in Europe
  • 7. Mass Conversions in Andhra Under Seventh Day Adventist Ron Watts With the patronage of Andhra CM YSR, who is Seventh Day Adventist Evangelical, Ron Watts has successfully launched 100- village conversion programs with a church. Each church costs 5000$/- . Land is free because they are build illegally on Poromboke and Mandir Lands. In some areas, it is believed that 70% of Dalits were converted. Source: http://www.organiser.org/dynamic/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=184&page=5
  • 8. Mass Conversions Christian Population of India: 10% Many do not reveal the true situation fearing loss of reservation status Churches do not want to raise alarm bells Christian population of Andhra: 6.96% Data from 2001 per Joshua Missionary - current population could be up to 17% At this rate, Andhra Pradesh could become Christian in a decade or less Tamil Nadu could be up to 28%
  • 9. Mass Conversions Vote bank of 45% (25% Christian + 20% Muslim) only is needed for any political party to get power in India (by dividing the Hindu vote) Lesson from History: Four North Eastern States of India with 75% to 95% Christian population from aggressive conversion. They were Hindu majority in 1948. Now want to separate from India.
  • 11. “An Empire of Unprecedented Scale & Planning, with little scruples.” “Per 1989 data, globally, churches spend 145 billion dollars, command four million full time workers, run 13,000 libraries, publish 22,000 periodicals and four billion tracts a year, operate 1,890 radio and TV stations. There are a quarter million foreign missionaries, over 400 institutions to train them.” http://christianaggression.org/item_display.php?type=ARTICLES&id=105890871 6 (as reported in The Hindu, March 13, 2001) http://www.tehelka.com/story_main.asp?filename=ts013004shashi.asp&id=1 (Tehelka Investigate Report)
  • 12. Strategies Control of Media (full or partial interests) [ WHILE THE SPECIFICS BELOW NEED TO BE VERIFIED, THE TACTICS, EXTENT AND SCALE, ARE INCONTROVERTIBLE. ] Source: http://www.haindavakeralam.org/PageModule.aspx?PageID=2641 a) The Hindu, India’s National Newspaper: Joshua Society, Berne, Switzerland (It is said that Hindu editor N. Ram’s wife is Christian) b) NDTV: Funded by Gospels of Charity in Spain c) CNN-IBN: 100% Funded by Southern Baptist Church d) The Times of India Group: Owned by Bennet & Coleman; 80% funding from WORLD CHRISTIAN COUNCIL, (and the balance 20% is equally shared by an Englishman and an Italian. The Italian ROBERTIO MINDO IS A CLOSE RELATIVE OF SONIA GANDHI ). e) STAR TV: Supported by St.Peter’s Pontificial Church, Melbourne, Australia. f) HINDUSTAN TIMES: Owned by the Birla Group, but working in collaboration with the Times Group. g) INDIAN EXPRESS: DIVIDED INTO TWO GROUPS. THE INDIAN EXPRESS & NEW INDIAN EXPRESS (SOUTHERN EDITION). Acts Ministries has major stake in the Indian express and later is still with the Indian counterpart
  • 13. Strategies Control of Media- Continued h) EENADU : To date controlled by an Indian named Ramoji Rao i) The Statesman: Controlled by the Communist Party of India j) Kairali TV: Controlled by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) l) Mathrubhoomi: leaders of the Muslim league and Communist Leaders have major investment. m)Asian Age & Deccan Chronicle: Are owned by a Saudi Arabian Company with its chief Editor M.J.AKBAR. Source: http://www.haindavakeralam.org/PageModule.aspx?PageID=2641
  • 14. Strategies Control of Media- Continued - Aggressively push Christianity by buying up prime time slots for sermons on TV. - All out effort to stop Hindu devotional programs. Attack on Eenadu has a lot to do with telecast of Hindu devotional programs. - Use the media to dilute Hindu faith. An example is the recent show, Jyothi of Sabarimalai on NDTV, questioning the Hindu faith.
  • 15. Strategies Why Control of Media? This is a key step required before carrying out illegal mass conversions with deception and untruth
  • 16. Strategies Convert Popular People in Society E.g., Telugu actors Jayaprada and Jaya Sudha are converted. Many others are being targeted and converted.
  • 17. Strategies Buy out the Politicians Apparently many politicians or their spouses are converted using very large sums of money. Specifics are hard to get because they do not change their name or way of dress. One thing for sure, the silence of many politicians cannot be other than that bought with money. (There are hearsays but cannot be confirmed is that leading people or their spouses in BJP, TDP, DMK, Congress are converted).
  • 18. Strategies Use of Raw Muscle & Money Power Eyewitness accounts relate how village musclemen are recruited, and money power used, to systematically convert village after village, in specific pockets of India such as coastal Andhra.
  • 19. Strategies Ward off resistance from Hindu organizations By engineering news of attack using media as a tool. E.g., Baripada Incident in Orissa: News that was splashed all over the media and the Internet, that a Hindu fundamentalist raped a nun, was found to be totally fabricated, upon later investigation. However, the media does not even bother to publish later findings. The initial news items are still being used to get more money from Churchgoers in West. Many such cases are engineered or full of lies. -- Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting our Souls
  • 20. Strategies Defame any Hindu Saint that resists Kanchi Sankaracharya Jayendra Saraswati’s arrest on framed-up charges has a lot to do with his efforts in bringing Dalits into the Hindu fold by building Hindu temples in Dalit areas and engaging in discussions with them. (To this day no evidence was found against him) -- Source: NS Raja Ram articles
  • 21. Strategies Eliminate any Hindu Saint that blocks conversions Murder of 84 year old Swami Laxmananda before Krishna Janmashtami festival with AK-47 and Axes is because his successful development work with Orissa tribals during last 40 years had been a hindrance to proselytization. He and his disciples Swami Arupananda, Swami Chinmayananda and Mata Bhaktimayi were murdered in the presence of 130 Orphange Children. There were 9 attempts to assasinate him and in spite of requests for protection, Government failed to protect him.
  • 22. Strategies Destroy Hinduism Completely by Converting Targeted Populations Joshua Project Thessalonica No More Hindu Temples and Celebrations Seek out and convert temple building masons and architects, so that no new Temples can ever be built in the world. Convert people involved in the Hindu festival (e.g. Kumbh Mela) infrastructure, such as boatsmen, etc., so that devotees will be so inconvenienced as not to come for such Melas. -- Source: Croatian newspaper (www.crusadewatch.org)
  • 23. Strategies Destroy any organization that supports Hinduism - IDRF, which funds humanitarian projects, some led by the Sangh Parivar, was deprived of all corporate matching funds by spreading false news to US corporations. - Source: lots on the Internet
  • 24. Strategies Garner the support of powerful politicians and bureaucrats NS Rajaram, a well known historian, says that missionaries have the tacit support of Sonia Gandhi (nee Antonia Maino, a Roman Catholic). YSR would not be so brazen but for that support. Institutional Anti-Hinduism of the UPA (led by Sonia) must have a lot to do with this. All close confidants of Sonia are Christians and it is said that there are 5 Christian Chief Ministers in India today. Foreigners are providing strategy planning for Sonia/UPA today. - NS Rajaram & others
  • 25. Strategies Defame our Revered Hindu Gods, Saints, Leaders and Scriptures Reinterpret traditional stories of our saints and scriptures to spread false stories. Many interpretations implicate sexual impropriety on our Gods, saints and leaders. Some examples:- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa: Homosexual Mahatma Gandhi: Sexual pervert who spend life cleaning latrines Sai Baba: Homosexual Vivekananda: Attempt at seduction charge when in the US Jayendra Saraswati: Improper relationships with a woman Deepak Chopra: Extra-marital relationship
  • 26. Strategies Fool the gullible with Hindu religious practices, customs. Missionaries wear Sadhu dresses, perform arati, and burn incense, to give impression that very little has changed A prayer hall in Kerala has meditating Jesus in Padmasana posture!
  • 27. Strategies Adoption of Hindu arts and culture for their own ends (Acculturation) Recently Vatican was given Bharata Natyam performance of Christ birth! Christian Yoga where names of asanas are changed and no trace of Hinduism kept.
  • 28. Strategies Convert with goods and allurement Right to use a bore well pump in front of church (placed with Government money) requires conversion. Called Jesus Wells, this is targeted at drought areas. During disasters, goods are given to the suffering victims subject to agreeing to convert. (For e.g., a boat is given to a fisherman who is a Tsunami victim only if he agrees to convert).
  • 29. Strategies Convert with goods and allurement Poor Village Women have Jesus Wells dug right in front of option walking ½ mile to fetch church. Pastor makes sure no water, or convert and get it just Non-Believers can draw water. 100 yards away. Source: www.crusadewatch.org
  • 30. Strategies Convert with goods and allurement Exploit disaster victims’ helplessness as an opportunity to convert. "This Tsunami disaster is one of the greatest opportunities God has given us to share his love with people," said K.P. Yohannan, president of the Texas-based Gospel for Asia. "I'm not here to do relief work," said John. His calling was missionary work, he admitted. "They are looking for answers," he said of the disaster victims, whom he described as particularly good candidates for conversion. - from a candid Missionary in Indonesia after the Tsunami disaster Source:http://www.inminds.co.uk/tsunami.html
  • 31. Strategies False and deceptive stories to create fear and force conversion Missionaries target the gullible and the poor: Tell them that their worship of Hindu forms is the worship of the Devil or Satan Create among them a great fear of Hell Tell them that they are poor because they did not convert -- Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting our Souls
  • 32. Strategies Use of established Christian institutions as new venues for conversion Christian schools and teachers’ colleges in some areas demanding conversion for getting admitted Bible is openly read to children in these schools Children going to Christian schools with Hindu customs are discouraged (Recent example of a child in a Hyderabad school being beaten by his teacher for wearing kumkum).
  • 33. Strategies Precise demographic and other data Missionaries have precise demographic data on every village, the main obstacles for conversion, etc. They print literally millions of books in every language of India (the biggest such publishing house is deceptively named ‘Om Publishing’). Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting Our Souls
  • 34. Strategies Use the converted to gain more converts & even encourage them destroy Hindu institutions Converted person is told to demonstrate that they are truly converted by getting others to convert. More people they convert, more their faith! Converts are even encouraged to destroy temples See http://www.jesusfilm.org/progress/australia.html?type=regular&id=330 ) Source: Arun Shourie, Harvesting Our Souls (first item)
  • 35. Strategies In depth Studies Ph.D. Thesis on how to convert Forward Caste Hindus (184 Pages) Abstract … Of particular concern to this study is the application of Church Planting Movement strategy to forward caste Hindus of India… The paper concludes that the best approach to facilitating a Church Planting Movement among forward caste Hindus is by not planting churches. Source (with full thesis): http://www.crusadewatch.org
  • 36. Strategies Legitimizing Conversion Missionaries are now demanding constitutional changes to provide converts the same status as Scheduled and Backward Caste Hindus Many converts retain Hindu names and identities fearing the loss of their reservation status Source: http://www.crusadewatch.org
  • 37. Strategies Fundamental Premises Do whatever is necessary with the Power of Money and Organization, albeit with Deception and Lies, to increase their numbers and therefore the power of the Church Their methods go against the very teachings of Jesus that they claim to be promoting – End justifies the Means
  • 38. Strategies It should be noted that there is genuine service performed by some missionaries that are helping those ignored by the country, but this is due to the altruistic spirit of those individuals. Church has little interest in them other than that they become symbols of good Public Relations and help bring in more converts. Services are provided only until conversion is complete. Every effort made to make conversion irrevocable by such actions as eating beef.
  • 39. Strategies Church interest in service is for conversions, period. Their interest in India is because of dwindling church attendance in Europe and the need for a fresh crop of followers, clergy, etc. There are thousands of non-Christian NGO’s providing service in India that get little attention. And they do not try to convert and provide service irrespective of religious affiliation).
  • 40. Strategies If only Missionaries are true to Jesus 1. Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2. For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
  • 42. Missionary Finances Per 1989 statistics, the total amount was $145 billion; It could be over $300 billion now. A good fraction of this, amounting to millions of dollars, is sent to India for conversion. - Themethods used to collect from many churches leaves a lot to be desired: blatant lies about other cultures, coercion by deception such as “pay if you want to go to heaven”, etc. Source: www.crusadewatch.org
  • 43. Missionary Finances Fronted by service organizations such as World Vision: These organizations parade as “secular” NGOs and ironically even Hindus help them collect funds using events such as benefit cricket matches for Tsunami Disaster Relief. Only a small amount of the funds are used for relief and development activities, rest used for conversion.
  • 44. Missionary Finances US Government Support Joshua Project is supported by the US Govt: Rising India becoming Christian is in best interests of US. Clinton, during his presidency asked a Japanese CEO to support a Christian charity in India, and it was immediately acted upon. Political support – US Government responds to false stories and takes it up with India
  • 45. Missionary Finances Donations to Mother Teresa? Does anyone know of a fully equipped hospital run by Mother Teresa? Does anyone understand why people with different diseases such as TB, Cancer, etc., are all huddled in the same environment. That is because Mother Teresa believed that it was good for them to suffer as Christ did and so long as they were baptized before death, they would go to heaven and enjoy pleasures. She took the best care for her own illness, though. No one knows what happened to literally millions of dollars collected for the Calcutta poor. (She used to spend lot of time with Vatican.) -- Source: “Mother Teresa, where are her Millions”, STERN magazine on 10 September 1998 (this is a conservative paper!).
  • 46. Holocaust of Hindu Culture (The Grand Plan of the Missionaries along with the Communists, Atheists and the Congress Party)
  • 47. Holocaust of Hindu Culture: Missionaries, leftists, the new Nazis? 1. Build the framework For Nazis it was Mein Kampf, Nazi Party formation. For missionaries, initially schools, spread of false stories on Hindu saints, background conversions etc. For leftists it is establishment of base states. 2. Grab the power Nazis gained power using the resentment after the First World War. Missionaries have gained unprecedented power with Catholic Sonia’s rise to power. Leftists in UPA Govt has enormous bargaining power. Now, it is a matter of spending few million dollars to buy up the politicians of all parties.
  • 48. Holocaust of Hindu Culture: Missionaries, Leftists the new Nazis? 3. Capture the media Nazis used the media as propaganda machines. They systematically spread false things about Jews and about Aryan supremacy and even gave out free radios. Missionaries engineer attacks on Hindu institutions and use the media to propagate and suppress their nefarious activities, such as mass scale conversions. Leftist pseudo secularists has filled up all media posts and set a false propaganda. Arrest our saints and conduct trial by media. 4. Exploit disorganization of victims: Jews were hardly organized and lived in their own communities. Hindus are no different. Worse, Hindus are fragmented by traditions, castes, languages, etc. Hindu saints are never one force. Convenient for the missionaries and leftists to wipe them out.
  • 49. Holocaust of Hindu Culture: Missionaries, leftists the new Nazis? 5. Cripple economically Nazis destroyed all Jewish businesses. They crippled them economically and even took every thing on their body including their hair. Missionaries, along with politicians, are looting temples, selling away all the lands and using the same money for building churches and mosques. They are usurping Yoga as Christian Yoga and Hindu arts such as Bharatanatyam are Jesus Natyam. 6. Final wipeout Nazis did this via concentration camps. Hindus won’t be able to continue daily life on the streets, there will not be any temples they can go to, cannot send children to most schools. Christians and Muslims will get reservation and preference in the economy and Hindus, especially all the forward castes, will be the new pariahs of this century in India, unless they convert.
  • 51. Problems with Conversion Conversion is violence. It perpetrates violence by separating families and telling many bad things about their religion. The guilt caused by conversion is masked by creating hatred. Some missionaries even direct that guilt to demolish temples. That is why Mahatma Gandhi and Vivekananda called Conversion as Perversion. It will divide the country and sows the seeds for unimaginable problems for the future of the country. The four North Eastern States, where Hindus were in majority as late as 1947, are now 75% to 95% Christian and are engaging in terrorism and want to separate from India.
  • 52. Problems with Conversion Most missionaries are Jehadis. They believe that either convert or demolish the non-believer and that they will go to heaven, if they convert. Fundamentalist Muslims are another kind of Jehadis that believe, either convert or kill the infidel and believe that killing infidels will take them to heaven. Both have the Word of God. These two groups have the potential to make Lebanon out of India.
  • 53. Problems with Conversion How the Pope Feels about Hindus “Make no mistake about it. The Pope is not a friend of the Hindus. His visit is organized to promote his evangelization activities, his targeting of Hindu India for Christian conversion. The Pope wants to convert Hindu India to Christianity. He would be happy if all Hindu temples were abandoned in favor of churches. He would be happy if all the swamis, sadhus and yogis either became Christian priests or disappeared altogether. He has no praise for a Ramana Maharshi, a Sri Aurobindo, a Ramakrishna, or a Shankaracharya. He does not honor the Vedas and the Gita like the Bible. He does not allow pujas to the Gods or the chanting of Om in churches. He has nowhere apologized for the use of the Inquisition in India or elsewhere. He has nowhere said that Hindus won't go to hell. He may claim to honor India's spiritual traditions but not to the extent that it requires him giving up his efforts to convert Hindus.” Source: David Frawley on Pope’s visit to India

  • 55. Problems with Conversion "Stop all conversion, it is the deadliest poison that ever sapped the fountain of truth" "If I had power and could legislate, I should certainly stop all proselytizing". "Poverty doesn't justify conversion" "I resent the overtures made to Harijans.” Mahatama Gandhi

Andhra: TIRUPATI Attempt to take over 5 out of 7 Sacred Temple Hills for Churches, Casinos & Tourism Andhra Government, under evangelical CM (YSR), attempted to take over 5 out of 7 hills for tourism. (Even 800 years muslim rules and 200 years British rule did not touch this sacred place). 3000 acres of temple land for distribution in the name of social justice for more votes in Andhra Pradesh. Timely intervention by Hindu saints stopped this attempt. Tirupati Declaration is available on the Internet.

Andhra Pradesh: Snapshot of plight of Hindu Temples Total Temple Lands: 420,000 acres Total number of temples under Government: 34,443 87% of Temples (30,000 temples) under Government control cannot even afford Dhoopa, Deepa, Naivedyam. 20% of Temples Lands (80,845 acres) are encroached mostly by political patronages. 40% (167,000 acres) are leased mostly by politicians under fictitious names paying Rs 3 to Rs 40 per annum. Number of court cases: 6547 Based on Eenadu TV Interview (see www.savetemples.org for interview) Corruption occurred in both Congress and TDP administrations, but the unscrupulous activites of current YSR Government is most colossal and unprecedented that threatens the very survival of Hindu Institutions.

Jagan and his friend Janardhan Reddy used powerful bombs and grounded the Temple which is highly revered by the locals. Though some Congressmen claimed that Jagan did that as part of his illegal iron mining business, questions are being raised about whether he would have blown up a church under similar circumstances.

  • 73. Maharashtra Proposal to Take Over Four Lakh Temple Trusts (Mosques Excluded) MUMBAI, MAHARASHTRA, November 13, 2006: The Maharashtra government is proposing legislation which will empower the state to take over all religious shrines. If the legislation is enacted it will place all Hindu, Jain, Christian and Buddhist shrines under government control. The law, however, makes no mention of Aukaf land (Muslim religious bequests) which are located all over the state. This is the first step in the systematic destruction of Hindu institutions in Maharashtra (similar to AP)
  • 74. State Looting and Bloated Bureaucracies State Governments own most of the Hindu Temples (by way of Temple Endowment Boards) whereas Mosques and Churches have complete autonomy. 15% of temple income is used just to pay the salaries of the 70,000 employees of the Endowment Board in AP.
  • 75. “In a period of 5 years, 50,000 (25%) temples closed for want of funds. Priests do not want to train their children anymore.” -- Report by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Contrast this with just one Seventh Day Adventist Group’s plan to build 10,000 churches in India in just one year (2005) (mostly in A.P with patronage of current A.P Government).

UPA and Sachar Drama is to grab Muslim Votes Special reservation to Muslims in all spheres with no regard for poor among other communities Terrorist Afzal’s hanging drama Increasing violence of Muslims (Bangalore, MP) on Hindus with new boldness UPA going to ridiculous extent to appease the minorities.
  • 81. Sonia/Congress Grand Plan (no matter what the cost to the country) • Deification of Sonia as the country’s leader with eventual handover to her son Rahul, is the game plan. • Capture of media by missionaries/leftists will help ensure the continuance of Sonia as the leader. • Sonia and the Vatican/Missionary Establishment guarantees Christian Votes. Muslim appeasement guarantees Muslim votes. • Capture backward caste Hindu votes by diving Hindus into forward and backward castes via reservations, etc. • It is an all out game to install Rahul, with little consideration to the democratic institutions of the country (e.g. Jharkhand, Goa, Bihar).
  • 83. Marginalization of any Progressive Muslims Not providing the strength to progressive Muslims to come forward and join the mainstream is a sad testimony to total lack of vision in politics. The current state of Muslims is the result of simply pandering to Muslim fundamentalism (e.g. Shah Bano case, Uniform Civil Code, etc). Lack of Muslim development is also a result of years of Congress rule of vote bank politics.

  • 85. What are the Dangers to the Hindus and India
  • 86. The Vote Bank Politics will result in complete Marginalization of Hindus It is already happening at all levels. All Sonia’s close confidants are Christians and there are 5 Christian CM’s in India. Violence on Hindus is of little interest to the Establishment (recent Bangalore and the MP experiences is a testimony)
  • 87. Hindu Temples and Institutions will be systematically destroyed Andhra Pradesh, with a Christian CM, is the model state for others Hindu Festivals Holi and Janmashtami are no more compulsory holidays in India (recent Govt. GO)
  • 88. As India becomes Muslim and Christian pockets, Hindus will have to either convert or perish. Telling recent example in Tamilnadu: In Thondi and Rasathipuram Municipalities (in Ramanathpuram and Vellore Districts), the local bodies were secured by Muslims. Both Municipalities have denied civic amenities, funds for schools, garbage clearing etc., and sent notices in Urdu. Hindus were bluntly told to convert to Islam if they wanted civic facilities. Madrassas and mosques, particularly the Saudi Arabian supported Wahabis have little tolerance for Kuffars (those who do not follow Muslim religion). Muslim children are continuously taught that Hinduism is a false religion. (See Youtube for what is taught in Wahabi supported mosques).
  • 89. Hindus can end up as refugees or have to accept second class citizen status in their own country Today half million Hindus are refugees for more than a decade in Kashmir and the world (and India) hardly care. They are dying in large numbers due to disease. Why can’t this happen happen in other states as the Muslim and Christian populations increase?
  • 90. Hindus will not be able to follow their customs In the name of conversion, married Hindu women were being prevented from wearing tilak, mangala sutra or flowers in their hair, the traditional attributes of married women in Tamil culture; this was also impacting badly upon the social fabric. -- AIADMK leader from Uppalam constituency in State Assembly (New Indian Express, April 18, 2003) http://www.christianaggression.org/item_display.php?type=ARTICLES&id=1168270764 -- Sandhya Jain, Jan 14, 2007, Organiser article.

Hardly anything positive on Hindus & Hindu events in Indian and Western Media (compare with the coverage for other faiths) 5. Magnification of perceived Hindu weaknesses such as casteism, dowry, etc. (which are really social problems).
  • 92. What is happening to Hindus around the World is a Good Indication Phenomenal decrease in Hindu population & take over of Hindu properties It is said 75% of Malaysian Hindus may convert in next 5 years. 100 year old Temples are being destroyed unscrupulously in Malaysia right now. Hindu Population in Pakistan in 1947 was 10% and now 2%. Hindu Population in Bangladesh in 1947 was 30% and now 9%. Pakistan, Bangladesh: Vested Property Act makes the State the owner of all Hindu Properties. Contrast this with India, where Muslims were 8% in 1947 and now believed to be 20%) Detailed information is available at Hindu American Foundation Website http://hafsite.org under Reports section (Survey of Human Rights). This was submitted to multiple US congressmen and Senators.
  • 93. What is happening to Hindus around World is a Good Indication Forcible Conversions in Pakistan In October 2005, three young daughters, Reena, Usha and Rima, of marriageable age, of Hindu parents in Karachi, vanished. In a few days, the shocked parents received a courier package containing three identical affidavits from their daughters stating that they had all converted to Islam and, therefore, could not live with their Hindu parents. The ongoing trend in Pakistan and Bangladesh indicates that Hindu girls have been kidnapped, forcibly married, and coerced to convert, but as helpless Hindus in Pakistan, their parents have no hope for justice. And this can happen to any Hindu parent in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

  • 94. Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored Christian & Muslim Rulers’ Atrocities Muslim Rulers were ruthless, converted most by force Hindu Kush derives its name from the mass killing of Hindus that runs into millions. Their practices include slitting throats to kill (it is their belief that the suffering from the blood draining will redeem the sins of being an infidel). Just one cold night, 100,000 thousand Hindu slaves were killed there during the reign of Timur Lenk (1398-99) 50,000 Hindus were killed in one attack on Somnath temple by Mahmud of Ghazni. On Feb 24, 1568, Emperor Akbar ordered the killing of 30,000 captured Rajput Hindus.
  • 95. Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored Christian & Muslim rulers atrocities Portuguese Inquisition of the Church on those who did not convert, is need to be known by every Hindu. Cutting of male genitals and female breasts are some of the punishments given for not converting! It is now acknowledged that Gypsies in Europe originated as Hindu slaves brought by Muslims from India. Many were killed in the Nazi Holocaust. The increase in lower castes from 1% to 15% is said to have occurred during the Muslim rule when higher castes accepted the status of ‘Dhimmi’ as punishment for refusing to convert.
  • 96. Hindus will learn the hard way – if history is ignored "Let it be said right away: the massacres perpetrated by Muslims in India are unparalleled in history, bigger than the holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis; or the massacre of the Armenians by the Turks; more extensive even than the slaughter of the South American native populations by the invading Spanish and Portuguese." -- Francois Gautier
  • 97. India can very well be divided again Muslims appeasement by the British between 1900 and 1947 resulted in the Partition of India Blatant minority appeasement and sanctioning of unscrupulous conversion by Sonia/UPA could lead to a splintered nation. We lost Kashmir and may soon lose Assam and the North East.
  • 98. Summary Hindus who are complacent, need to understand the consequences, if the current situation continues. Missionaries, in a democracy with a highly corrupt political system, culturally deprived intelligentsia, with billions of dollars and little scruples, have the potential to convert a majority of India’s population in just a few years. This, along with vote bank politics, can result in complete marginalization of Hindus and the division of India. Those who do not convert will be at an enormous disadvantage economically and spiritually. It took only two decades to convert Buddhist South Korea to Christian South Korea. Once a majority is obtained, other religions will be severely discriminated.
  • 99. Hindu Apathy and Ignorance
  • 100. “An Indian (Hindu) is culturally more concerned about himself and his family, educating his children, making his life better, as opposed to group advancement. He is highly individualistic. That is what reduces his political power." -- Trinidad’s Former Prime Minister in an interview to India Abroad (Jan 11, 2005)
  • 101. Muslims Are Bullies, Hindus are Cowards. -- Mahatma Gandhi
  • 102. Hindu spiritual leaders, with a few exceptions, have a complete lack of vision Each Acharya is busy with their small World Do not speak against the caste system Do not take care of Dalits or challenge the blocking of their entry into temples Their attitude reflected is in higher caste Hindus Even today higher caste Hindu’s matrimonial columns is full of caste requirements.
  • 103. Best Educated, left the Country for Greener Pastures Few recognize that in spite of its poorness it is the India’s poor who financed the education of those who left the country. Indian political field is mostly left to incompetents and criminals. Misguided Hindu political leaders (Congress, Communists, DMK etc) who think they stand a chance after Muslim and Christian majority comes about.
  • 104. Lack of Vision of Our Leaders and the Media • Lack of vision seems to have started from Nehru himself and became worse with his descendants • Not understanding what Muslim appeasement can do started from Mahatma Gandhi himself • Pseudo-secular media which thinks anything anti-Hindu is worth a few more brownie points
  • 105. Improper Response Of Hindus Hindus either over-react or not act at all. Both are not going to help. They need to learn the PR and smoothness of Christian organizations and the Organized Voting Bloc philosophy of the Muslims.
  • 106. Belief that Christianity is more humane Hinduism is the only culture that did not invade, murder and subjugate other countries or cultures for wealth and power, in the name of religion. Casteism pales in comparison with 50 million Africans killed in slave boats, 200+ years of slavery with church justification of Africans having no soul, lynchings of young African Americans, decimation of Native Americans with things like disease infected blankets, colonization of Africa, Americas and Asia and sapping their economy totally causing famines and living skeletons, Nazi holocaust of 10 million, burning of witches. S. African leader Desmond Tutu said, “When missionaries came we had the land and they had the bible, we closed our eyes for prayer and opened them, only to find that they had the land and we had the bible.”
  • 107. Belief that Conversion is Good because it brings service to ignored people Hindus who think that conversion is the price we have to pay for the service rendered by missionaries, need to consider Mahatma Gandhi’s and Vivekananda’s thoughts on this. Conversion changes the very fabric of a country, that has somehow survived and retains a 10,000 year old culture, and can further disintegrate it. They have to be prepared to convert or accept second class status.
  • 108. Not Understanding the Greatness of Hinduism “If there is one place on the face of the earth where all the dreams of living men have found a home from the very earliest days when man began the dream of existence, it is India....For more than 30 centuries, the tree of vision, with all its thousand branches and their millions of twigs, has sprung from this torrid land, the burning womb of the Gods. It renews itself tirelessly showing no signs of decay.” -- Romaine Rolland, Nobel Laureate
  • 109. Not Understanding the Greatness of Hinduism "In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavat Geeta, since whose composition years of the gods have elapsed, and in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seem puny and trivial;” -- Henry David Thoreau, American Philosopher, Unitarian, social critic, transcendentalist and writer, whose writings provided roots for liberalism in America. http://hinduwisdom.info is one of the best resources on Hinduism.
