Pledge to protect Sanatan Dharma by preventing conversion - H.H. Swami Chittaranjan Maharaj, Shanti Kali Ashram, Amarpur, Tripura

Vidyadhiraj Hall, June 21 (Corr.) – The reality of the extent of conversion in Tripura hits you when you are there. Hindus started converting after 1985-86. My Guru Shantikali Maharaj and I started working to prevent conversion. My elder brother was kidnapped and threatened to tell me to stop my anti-conversion work. But by Guru’s grace I continued my mission. I quit my job to devote my energies to preventing conversion. We received support from Ashok Singhal (of VHP) and Mohan Bhagwat (of RSS), said H.H. Swami Chittaranjan Maharaj, Shanti Kali Ashram, Amarpur, Tripura. He was speaking on Day 6 of the Vaishvik Hindu Rashtra Mahotsav here

Maharaj added…
1. Christian missionaries infiltrate states using education as a ruse. The states of Manipur and Nagaland have a large number of Hindu converts. 25 pastors, nuns, and 1,000 preachers have come to Tripura and are indulging in conversions.

2. People in Tripura are naive. They value education. Christians have established schools for children there. After 2-3 years of schooling, missionaries meet the parents of the children. They say ‘your child is smart. He has potential. Baptize him. We will give him a good education’. The gullible Hindus are misled and get converted.

3. We are fighting against conversion with Guru’s blessings. We will send back the missionaries who have come from Mizoram and Nagaland in the next 2 years.

4. There are many monks and Saints in the monasteries and temples in Tripura. But conversion is rampant as the Hindus there are not provided education on Dharma. If Hinduism survives, monasteries and temples will survive. So try to save Hindu Dharma first.

5. Every devout Hindu who has come here from every corner of the nation should pledge that we will protect Sanatan Dharma and Hindus by preventing conversion and if need be sacrifice our lives for Dharma.
