[GHHF] A Helping Hand for Hindu Dharma - Nitya Dhupa Deepa Seva!

The role of temples in upholding Sanatana Dharma is invaluable. However, in remote villages, especially in economically backward areas and SC/ST colonies , many small temples are neglected and are losing their light without the daily offering of incense and lamps. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation stands in support of these temples. Through our project, Nitya Dhupa Deepa Seva, we are continuously providing puja kits to these temples. This kit includes essential puja items like oil, wicks, incense sticks, camphor, kumkum, and turmeric. Significance of the Nitya Dhupa Deepa Seva Meritorious Outcome: The daily lighting of incense and lamps in a temple increases the positive energy of the place. The scriptures say that participating in this service brings merit to us and our family lineage. Revival of the Temple: With daily pujas taking place, the temple is revived as a spiritual center. Devotees become interested in visiting the temple again. We hope to continue this great work with everyone's cooperation. Our small help can fill these temples with light. Please come forward to be a part of this service.  Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Request Collector to Deny Permission to Tablighi Ijtema with 7000 Muslims to prevent inflammatory speeches and hurt community sentiments near the Tirumala Temple region.

Date: September 3, 2025 To The Collector Tirupati District Andhra Pradesh Subject: Representation regarding proposed Tablighi Ijtema near Tirumala Temple region — Request to safeguard public order and religious harmony Respected Sir/Madam, On behalf of the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation, I respectfully submit this representation concerning the proposed Tablighi Ijtema in Agalarala Village, Chandra Mandal, located in close proximity to the Tirumala Temple region — a site revered by Hindus for centuries as one of the holiest places of worship. We wish to express our concern not against any religious community as a whole, but specifically regarding certain interpretations of religious texts that may be promoted by a subset of individuals within the organizing group. These interpretations, if propagated in a sensitive and sacred region, could potentially disrupt public order and infringe upon the constitutional morality enshrined under Article 25 of the Constitution of India. Constitutional Context Article 25 guarantees the freedom to profess, practice, and propagate religion, subject to public order, morality, and health. The non-obstante clause within this Article empowers the State to impose reasonable restrictions when religious practices threaten communal harmony or violate the dignity of other faiths. Concerns Regarding Public Order The proposed gathering raises the following concerns: * Location Sensitivity: Tirumala Temple is a centuries-old sacred site for Hindus. Hosting a large religious congregation from another faith tradition in its vicinity may be perceived as intrusive and disrespectful by local devotees. * Doctrinal Messaging: If the event includes preaching that labels non-believers or idol worshippers in derogatory terms — as found in certain literal interpretations of religious texts — it could inflame tensions and disturb peace. * Demographic Pressure: A large influx of attendees from outside the region may strain local resources and heighten anxieties among residents, especially if the event is not transparently coordinated with civic authorities.  Constitutional Morality and Social Harmony India’s constitutional morality emphasizes mutual respect, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence. Any religious event that undermines these principles — whether through exclusionary rhetoric or symbolic encroachment — risks violating the spirit of our secular democracy. We do not oppose the right of any group to practice its faith. However, we urge that such practices be conducted in a manner that respects the sanctity of other religious traditions and avoids locations that are deeply symbolic to another community. Our Requests:  In light of the above, we humbly request that your office: 1. Deny permission for the proposed Tablighi Ijtema in the vicinity of Tirumala Temple, considering its potential to disturb public order and religious sentiments. 2. Engage with organizers to explore alternative venues that are neutral and less likely to provoke communal sensitivity. 3. Ensure transparency in the nature and content of the event, with clear guidelines to prevent inflammatory preaching or proselytization targeting other faiths. 4. Monitor the situation closely, including the influx of attendees and any activities that may affect the sanctity of the Tirumala region We trust your office will act with prudence and uphold the constitutional values that protect both religious freedom and communal harmony. Sincerely,  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation CC: Commissioner, Municipal Corporation, Tirupati Deputy Superintendent of Police, Tirupati Inspector of Police, Chandragiri, Tirupati District

[GHHF] A Continuous Journey in Spreading Dharma: The Divine Name on Every Home in 504 Villages

The 'Dharma Prachara Yajna' of the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation continues its relentless journey. In a monumental effort, the program to inscribe the Divine Name on every home has been successfully completed in its 504th village. With the completion of this noble task in Kotha Yellavaram village, Natavaram Mandal, Anakapalli District, Andhra Pradesh, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has now successfully covered 504 villages, ushering in a new and inspiring chapter. This initiative is far more than just painting divine names; it is a profound movement designed to awaken spiritual consciousness and foster Hindu unity in every village. The dedicated volunteers of the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation go door-to-door, using stencils to paint powerful slogans like ' Jai Shri Ram ,' 'Om Namah Shivaya,' and the unifying declaration, ' We Are Hindus .' This act has reignited a sense of devotion and self-respect among the people. A New Dawn of Awakening As a result of this program, the forgotten spiritual values within these village communities have once again begun to blossom. The slogan, 'We Are Hindus,' in particular, has played a crucial role in strengthening the unity of the Hindu society. Villages where this program has been completed are now safe from conversion rackets. The presence of the Divine Name and the declaration 'We Are Hindus' on every home has instilled a fear in foreign religious proselytizers, who now hesitate to even step foot in these villages. The successful completion of this program in Kotha Yellavaram village is an inspiration to many. People from other villages are enthusiastically coming forward, requesting that this program be conducted in their communities as well. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation extends its heartfelt congratulations to every volunteer, the cooperative villagers, and every individual who has become a part of this great spiritual endeavor.  Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] A Step Towards Empowerment: Preparations for the Launch of the Tailoring Training Project

The programs conducted by our Global Hindu Heritage Foundation with the aim of serving Hindu Dharma are bringing about great change in society. With the same spirit, we are now taking the first step towards a tailoring training project, with the goal of empowering underprivileged Hindu women. The main reason we are moving forward with this great task is our donors, who recognized its importance, encouraged us, and provided financial support. Our heartfelt thanks to the donors who trusted us to manage this project effectively and provided the necessary funds. With their financial assistance, we have already purchased tailoring machines. Without their cooperation, this project would not have been possible. These tailoring training classes are set to begin soon. We are starting this project with the training of tribal women in the Alluri Sitharama Raju district. With this training, they will achieve financial self-sufficiency. By only purchasing the sewing machines once, we can continuously provide training in batches and help many people. Through this training, women can stand on their own feet, and thereby protect themselves from temptations like religious conversion due to financial difficulties. Implementation and Goals By linking this project with our Bala Samskar Kendras, we are efficiently using local resources. This will also increase the importance and reputation of our centers. As part of this training, we will not only teach tailoring but also the marketing and business skills needed for self-employment. What changes can we expect to see through this project? Self-Empowerment: When women become financially independent, their respect and recognition will increase within their families and society. Prevention of Religious Conversion: This project can save women from religious conversions that take advantage of financial difficulties. By becoming financially stable, they will more strongly protect their Dharma and culture. Social Stability: Through this program, women's self-reliance will increase, which in turn will lead to social stability and harmony. This project will officially launch soon. We believe that we can change the lives of many women through this project. We hope to undertake more such projects in the future. Once again, we thank the donors who are with us on this great journey. The cooperation of everyone is essential for the success of this project. Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Hindu Dharma Protection in Puri (Day 4)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06SKn2qLr1A On the third day of our Odisha tour, we held important meetings in Konark in the morning and Pentakota in Puri in the evening. Building on that momentum, we had planned a meeting on the morning of the fourth day as well. However, due to unexpected rain, the event had to be cancelled. Despite this, we were not discouraged and continued with our mission. In the evening, we held a meeting in the Pentakota area. After this meeting, we walked throughout the entire area, speaking with the local people, the managers of small temples there, and Hindu activists. Through these conversations, we gained a direct understanding of how the religious conversion mafia operates and the illegal activities they are carrying out. We also inspected the illegal churches they had built in the area. After clearly understanding how the religious conversion mafia operates in Pentakota, we organized another meeting at a different location in the same area that night. In this meeting, we discussed the local issues and possible solutions through GHHF. In this way, we completed the fourth day of our tour.  Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Ganesh Festival message: Nurture the roots of Bharat and transmit the grandeur of Sanatana Dharma to our Children.

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation President, Dr. Prakasarao Velagapudi, was invited to the Princeton Sanatana Dharma Foundation on Sunday afternoon. The Management, headed by Prasanna and others, has planned the event on a grand scale, with over 600 people expected to attend. The function featured several cultural events and a prize distribution ceremony for the winners of various sports that have been conducted over the last few weeks. The program began with a Puja to Lord Ganapati. A 5-6 feet tall Ganesh image was airlifted from Mumbai for the occasion. Following the cultural programs, Nimajjanam was done. He was honored as a Chief Guest. He wished everybody a pleased Ganesh Chaturthi. He discussed the significance of Lord Ganesh, who is worshipped as the remover of obstacles. He provides prosperity, wisdom, and intelligence. As we all know, Sanatana Dharma encompasses a wide range of aspects, including the scientific, spiritual, philosophical, and religious. It provides all the answers we are seeking. Nothing has escaped the keen eyes of our ancient Rishis. As Mark Twain said, there is nothing under the sun that our ancient Rishis have not addressed. With so much knowledge and wisdom, how come we Hindus do not learn, practice, and teach our children, who are our future generation?     Ganesh also represents grafting, a practice that our Sanatana Dharma has followed for many centuries.  He challenged the parents to take full responsibility for their children's education. We all have to take ownership of our Sanatana Dharma. With so much knowledge and excelling in every scientific field imaginable, how come we do not teach the richness of Hinduism to our children?  He asked every parent to spend some time with their children. He told parents never to say “I do not know” to their children. If we say “I do not know” two times to our children whenever they ask a question, then we lose our children forever. Nowadays, there is an abundance of material available on the internet. Please sit with your children, surf the internet, and find answers to their queries. In a similar vein, we all should take ownership of our Sanatana Dharma and Bharata Mata. We must practice it, propagate it, and preserve it for the welfare of humanity. Our failure may result in chaos and destruction. Imagine Sanatana Dharma as your mother and give her your full attention and protection, whatever you can. You must protect her. We need to nurture the roots of Sanatan Dharma. If we allow the roots of Sanatana Dharma to be pulled out of Bharat because of our indifference, all the branches will wither away. We are aware of what is happening in Bharat. It is being attacked in all directions because of our indifference and apathy. Let us all stand up for Sanatana Dharma and Bharata Mata.

[GHHF] Kurakulatota, a Complete Hindu Village: Mike Set Presented to Kanchemma Temple!

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjQeFa4BzOA Namaskar! As part of our efforts at Global Hindu Heritage Foundation for the protection of Hindu Dharma and the revival of temples, we are about to fill a special village with spiritual sounds through our microphone set distribution program. A mike set was presented to the Sri Kanchemma Temple in Kurakulatota village, Kalyandurgam Mandal, Anantapur district. This village has many special qualities. It is a complete Hindu village . At the entrance of the village, we have put up a board that says, "Everyone in this village is a Hindu; other religious propaganda is prohibited." This is not just a board; it is a testament to the awareness that has come among the villagers. Our organization has conducted many programs to promote devotion among the villagers. We have had Bhagavan's name painted on every house. We trained villagers through a Bhajan guru so they could perform bhajans themselves. We have also established a Bala Samskar Kendra for children and a village committee. The microphone set provided now will help bhajans, pujas, and discourses be heard by more people, further enhancing the spiritual feeling among the villagers. The Necessity of Mike Sets - A New Dimension to Devotion Collective Bhajans : Mike sets make bhajans and pujas performed by the villagers more enthusiastic and clear. Spreading Knowledge: Spiritual discourses and sermons will reach everyone, propagating the knowledge of Dharma. Protecting Culture: Regular programs held in village temples will continuously enlighten the people and protect our culture.   This Great Endeavor is Possible Only with Your Generosity! This program continues with the cooperation of donors like you. Currently, we have requests for microphone sets from more than 20 small temples. If you come forward and present a mike set, it will be presented to a temple in your name. Please make use of this great opportunity to participate in a divine cause. Even your small help will spread devotion to thousands of devotees. Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Bala Samskar Students learned about Taslima Nasrin, the author of “Lajja”, recipient of Fatwa, escape to India and advocacy of human rights and freedom of speech.

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation’s Bala Samskar Kendra students learn about the richness of Hindu Dharma, sacrifices of national heroes, moral stories and benefits of yoga and meditation. This week, our teachers talked about Islamic Scholar Taslima Nasrin who is a scholar, physician, human rights advocate, freedom of speech, and women’s rights. Taslima Nasreen was born on 25 August 1962 in a Muslim family in East Pakistan (which later became Bangladesh) which was separated from the country due to Islamic fanaticism. Taslima Nasrin is a famous writer and women's rights activist from Bangladesh, recognized worldwide for her literary works and social activities. The novel "Lajja" is the most popular of her works. Even though she was a Muslim, she was shocked by the torture of Hindus in Bangladesh by Islamic fanatics. The   fanatics issued a fatwa to her for writing against their frenzy with her pen. Everyone must read the novel "Lajja.” Most of us don't know that once Bangladesh was also a Hindu country. Today, due to the widespread use of media and social media, everyone knows the news that happened in any corner of the world, but how many people know the stories of the Hindus who fell prey to the Muslim fanatics in the past? Taslima has written 40 books in Bengali, which includes poetry, essays, novels and autobiography series. Her works have been translated in thirty different languages. Some of her books are banned in Bangladesh She grew up in the Muslim-majority region of East Pakistan, which later became into Bangladesh, which was a Muslim majority region, she grew up watching the atrocities and anarchy that the Muslims were doing to the Hindus. She saw those Muslims acting like animals, torturing Hindus in the name of religion and through her writings, she informed the world about their plight. Enraged by this, the Muslim fanatics tried to kill her. She fled from there and came to India as a refugee. Nasrin has been living in exile since 1994, with multiple fatwas calling for her death. After living more than a decade in Europe and the United States, she moved to India in 2004 and has been staying there on a resident permit long-term, multiple-entry or 'X' visa since. She now lives in New Delhi, India. During Bangladesh's separation from Pakistan, more than 30 lakh Hindus were killed there. A few days ago, thousands of Hindus were killed in Bangladesh. Hundreds of temples were burnt and demolished by Muslims there. If the number of Hindus in the country is large, it is a secular country, but when the number of fanatics increases, it becomes a graveyard. Therefore, we request that every Hindu must fight against the religious fundamentalism of the desert religions, prevent religious conversion and try to bring the converts back to Swadharma.  Some quotes from Taslima Nasrin “Do you really think a God who created the universe, billions of galaxies, stars, billions of planets- would promise to reward some little things in a pale blue dot (i.e. Earth) for repeatedly saying that he is the greatest and kindest and for fasting? Such a great creator can't be so narcissistic! “I don't find any difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalists. I believe religion is the root, and from the root fundamentalism grows as a poisonous stem. If we remove fundamentalism and keep religion, then one day or another fundamentalism will grow again. I need to say that because some liberals always defend Islam and blame fundamentalists for creating problems. But Islam itself oppresses women. Islam itself doesn't permit democracy, and it violates human rights.” Donations are appreciated; By Zelle: ghhfusaorg@gmail.com PayPal: savetemples.org By Check: You can also send a check payable to GHHF,14726 Harmony Lane, Frisco, TX 75035.

[GHHF] Pakistani Hindus in Rajasthan need your help: Thatched house $500; Water Tank $250; and Bala Samskar Kendra $1200 per year.

In a person's life, no matter what work they do, self-satisfaction is very important. There is a big difference between satisfaction and self-satisfaction. Satisfaction is a temporary emotion that can be triggered by external factors such as the purchase of an item. In contrast, self-satisfaction is a more permanent state of contentment with oneself and one's achievements. It is a healthy sense of fulfillment and pride that motivates individuals to continue striving for personal growth and improvement. Self-satisfaction is not just about the present moment but is a lifelong goal that contributes to mental health and well-being. "The happiness we get when we do something for ourselves and our family gives us satisfaction, but the happiness we get when we do something for others, for our motherland, or for Sanatana Dharma, gives us SELF SATISFACTION." The photos below are from the Bala Samskar Kendras run by the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation in a Pakistani Hindu refugee camp in the Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan. You can also see the pictures they drew for Vinayaka Chavithi. After being subjected to torture in Pakistan for being born and living as Hindus, they have come to their ancestral country, India, and are living as refugees, holding their lives in their palms. They could have lived freely and happily in Pakistan if they had just converted their religion, but they did not want to abandon Hindu Dharma. Due to some selfish politicians, they came as refugees from another part of erstwhile India into the current India and are living without even basic amenities. Being able to work for people like this is truly a matter of pride for us; it gives us true self-satisfaction. We are also going to work on creating basic infrastructure in this area.  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has already started constructing some houses for them to live in, freshwater tanks for drinking water, and Bala Samskar Kendras for the future of their children. We are asking our Hindu community to be a part of these programs.  Many families live without any shelter. Need as many supporters as possible. Please sponsor one or more of them as listed below: 1)    Cost for constructing one water tank - $250 2)    Cost for constructing one house - $500 3)    Bala Samskar Kendra for one year - $1200 Your donations are appreciated.
