WHO WILL SAVE OUR HARIJANS ?

CONTINUING CHRISTIAN OPPRESSION OF HARIJANS- WHO WILL BRING A CHANGE ?

Last week was there was a news flash. Two persons killed in a police firing when the Vanniar Christians and Harijan Christians clashed. The full report is here.

The Indians were preached that the only solace for Harijans is Christianity. This incident has just exposed the hollowness of it all. Any Indian with a keen eye will tell that the Harijan suffers the same fate in Christianity as he faced in Hindu community. Plus , he suffers, the trauma of an alien brainwash, and the biggest problem of separation from own kinsmen leading to social tension.

Christian Web Propaganda:
The web is full of Christian stooges in the garb of Harijan upliftment whose main agenda is conversion of the Harijans to Christianity. They are offered money, material, employment and most of all ‘dignity’ for the converts. This has grown to a global business with various denominations of Christian missionary groups jumping in the ‘fray’ for their share of converts among the 20 crore Harijans of India . The amount involved is mind boggling. One organization in Tamilnadu alone received more than 250 crores in 2006 and this is only the official statement of the government of India !

Almost all the Harijan/ Dalit websites are run by Christian organizations and their friends in arms- the communists. They freely use the name of B R Ambedkar, cleverly suppressing the fact that Ambedkar became a Buddhist.

You can find innocent looking advertisements like “ help a Harijan girl attend school” in your favourite web portals like Yahoo. When one goes into details, he finds that there is a money sucking evangelist behind it.

The silent conversion of the entire tribal population of the North Eastern states shows how cunning they can be. All the insurgencies in the region have the tacit as well as open support of the Churches ! Just goes to show how criminal and anti national these missionaries can become.

Plight of the Converts:

The Harijan, is approached by people from their own caste, and language background with lures of Money and some quick fix solution to their long standing problems. Once this man starts attending church, he finds that most of these promises are empty and whatever he gets, it is only after the share of the ‘pastor’ is taken off.


Also, the conversion happens by the magic of healing, a cunning deceitful art perfected by the missionaries. If the lowest field worker to the high flying missionary businessmen like D G S Dinakaran have one thing in common, it is the dishonest act of fake healing. Sometimes it is for a fever, a bruise, or even to chase a ‘ghost’.

Serious ailments require a detailed, systematic cheating. The innocent people believe that Christ saved them even if they are cured by medicine. I pointed out to them that the pastors themselves do not believe Christ since they visit doctors for their ailments. Funny, recently when I was in front of a Intensive Care Unit of a leading hospital, I found that more than 50 percent of the relatives of the patients waiting outside were Christians and Muslims. Together they make up 20 % of the population. Christ has so much affection for His own people !

The Harijan’s misery does not end there. Sometimes, he is immediately barred entry into his Kula Devata temple by his own Hindu kinsmen. He is now in a trap. He cannot marry his children in his own caste. He has to marry only similar Christian converts. Most often, they are from other castes within harijans and here too, resistance comes from fellow Hindus, that they vacate the colony.

Another dangerous pitfall is awaiting the Harijan. His own political leaders are pawns in the hands of missionaries. One of their leaders themselves in the payroll of the Christians, claims this report

In one colony I visit, the pastors have planted a local man in the colony itself , who was financed to study ‘Diploma in Theology’. You should see his eagerness for religious argument ! Pity the residents!

Economics of Conversion: The reverse drain

Another sad aspect of the evangelical brainwash is that, these already poor converts are further forced to part with a part of their income to his church. This is often the case with the Pentecostal sect . How is that ? The conversion is by lure. After conversion it is swindle. The irony is that the Harijan would not have paid even hundred rupees totally to his temple in his lifetime. But now he is paying at least a hundred rupees EVERY MONTH for his church. Who is smart ?

Is it any wonder that the ‘Pastor’ is the envy of the society with his flashy Sumo, Safari and Bolero. ? ( Note that all these are for ‘mass’ transport)

How to Save the Harijan from the Clutches of the Missionaries ?

This is a great question and has been asked by many sincere Indians. On the one hand they have the upper caste Hindus- especially the OBC’s to fear and, if they choose to cross over to the Christian camp, the missionaries are awaiting to suck their blood out. But, I say with finality that the emancipation of Harijans will have to happen inside their parent religion. The reasons are

1. The Harijans share the totality of culture with the rest of Indians- Read Hindus
2. Their only source of interaction is our OBC’s and other castes. The Christians are merely opportunists acting at the behest of vested Christian groups funded by criminal nations.
3. Their religion lies here in Hinduism. They share the common God with all of us Hindus.
4. They are more religious than any of the other Hindus.
5. The government is spending huge money on them to atone for the past deeds of fellow Hindus. Most of the Temples are open to them unlike the Upper caste Christian Churches which are out of bounds to them.
6. The present resurgence among Hindus has made them express their brotherhood with Harijans.
7. There are still converted Harijans who will still marry into Hindu relatives thus keeping the traditional bonds alive.

All said and done, I do not mean the missionaries have to be driven out. Like what Vivekananda said, I detest the evilness in people and I do not hate them. I only wish the evangelists changed their behaviour. The further they act in this manner, they will only do injustice to the other Christians since the resurgent Hindu Community will simply isolate them and march on brushing them aside into historic oblivion.

its not the question of saving.!
all need saving.
view like this.
its the pay disparity!
A computer man is paid 1000 fold than a downtrodden doing SCAVENGING/COBLER/ SEWAGE/DRAINAGE DIVER/CARRYING HEAD LOAD HUMAN EXCRETA even now.
we have effectively banned prostitution.
have we banned the above mentioned manual jobs?
let scientists come forward to upgrade the technology of harijan works!
now we see electric crematorium,rest rooms in planes..modernised!
why not scavenging.
ONE ATM HAS REVOLUTIONISED BANKING.
All are equal we dont discriminate.
bring technology development.
you wont see any downtrodden!
in corporates they issue gum boots,gloves,face mask,gloves etc.
a doctor wears gloves but he also does internal scavenging only.why disparity.
pl think in this line for development.

Being a harijan means one is worse than any animal or plant. So why stay as one? Go where one is respected and not scorned. If being a hindu makes one lower than the lowest form of life then run from it as quickly as possible..that's my advice to all harijans.
