[GHHF] Learn to overcome anger, jealousy and hasty decisions to succeed in life by working with colleagues as per Bhagavad Gita.

“Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.” Mark Twain A young man named Kishore worked in a big company. He is brilliant but makes very hasty decisions. Get angry over small things and ignore others' words for promotion.  One day, a competition was organized for promotion in his company. Everyone is working hard. The teenager also worked hard through the night. But his colleague Ravi planned very well and moved forward, helping the team. Seeing Ravi's name on the promotion list, Kishore raged. "I did everything once, but my name did not come! It's wrong!" He angrily attacked his superiors. He resigned from the company in anger and came out. Once unemployed, he started feeling sad to leave the office. Then, his father gave him a book and asked him to read it. The teenager started reading that book with great attention. In that book, Kishore saw a verse from the Bhagavad Gita said by Shri Krishna:  tasmat tvam indriyanyadau niyamya bharatarshabha papmanam prajahi hyenam jnana-vijnana-nashanam (Therefore, in the very beginning, O best of the Bharatas bring the senses under control and slay this enemy called desire, which is the embodiment of sin and destroys knowledge and realization.) Kishore, after reading those verses, immediately thought about your fundamental mistake. He understood where he was making a mistake. "My anger and haste have ruined my future. I must change my wrong nature." He thought so. From that day, the teenager learned to control his anger and intolerance. After a few months, he joined a new company. This time, he worked with his colleagues with good friendship and patience. He performed brilliantly and was promoted to manager in a short time. He, who till now was a slave to anger, achieved success through his self-determination. Moral of the Story: Anger and intolerance destroy our knowledge and wisdom. We should give up the desire to win every single time – the joy of winning as a team is more extraordinary. Admiration and ego overshadow yesterday's success. Every decision should be made thoughtfully, as haste destroys our future.  "Those with patience will be victorious." Essential things to be taught to children through this story: 1. If you work as a team, you will be closer to success. 2. To achieve success, along with hard work, good nature is also required. 3. Anyone can make mistakes, but a true leader takes responsibility for them. 4. Luck helps once, but only hard work lasts throughout life. Questions to ask teachers: 1. Why did Kishore lose his job? 2. How did Kishore react when he lost the promotion? 3. How did Kishore change his life? 4. What does ‘sense control’ mean in this story? 5. Have you ever committed a mistake due to anger? How to solve it? 6. What is the important lesson you learned from this story? Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] What a Miracle? Abhishekam with Boiling Water turns into cool water at Surya Narayana Deity’s feet. Read how GHHF Member Renovated it 15 years ago.

“Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.”  C. S. Lewis   https://youtu.be/zJTv-p__ZfQ Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is thrilled to know the miracle happening in a Temple that is renovated by GHHF. This is one of a kind miracle people can go and watch the boiling water turn cool as the Priest performs Abhishekam. Miracles do happen. We should never underestimate the power of our Gods. Miracles come in different shapes and different forms to show that God is guiding, listening, watching and protecting. Our faith and selfless service to God have their way of showing the blessing of Gods. The Surya Temple, located in Budagavi, Uravakonda, Anantapur District, Andhra Pradesh, on the way to Bellary, is known for a divine miracle associated with the idol of Surya, the Sun God. It is believed that when boiling water is poured over the head of the idol, it gradually cools as it flows down, becoming pleasantly warm by the time it reaches the feet. Devotees see this as a sign of the Sun God’s immense power and blessings. Witnessing this phenomenon fills them with awe and strengthens their faith. It serves as a reminder of the divine presence, inspiring devotion and gratitude in the hearts of all who experience it. History of Surya Narayan Temple. One of our GHHF Member and his family’s vision and passion brought back old glory into a historical temple when the doors of the Surya temple at Budagavi village in Andhra Pradesh opened to daily rituals after renovation in 2009. It took Kasibhatla five months of his time, and personal funds to renovate the temple as per Vastu Shastras, under able Agama Pundits. He came to know about this 800-year-old Temple and its history. Then his family with the support of GHHF decided to renovate the 13th century Sri Surya Narayana Temple. This is the second Surya Temple in AP, first one being Suryanarayana Temple in Arasuville, in Srikakulam District.  Thwarted Andhra Pradesh Government’s Take Over! Jagan Mohan Reddy government tried to take over in 2020. With relentless efforts of GHHF, we were able to withstand the pressure for nearly three years. We want to applaud the villager’s commitment to be united and oppose the government’s effort. The villagers went to High court on March 9, 2023, and received STAY ORDER disallowing the government to take over the Temple.  https://youtu.be/zJTv-p__ZfQ Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Muslims attacked Devotees of Veerabhadra Swamy Temple in Rayachoti near Tirupati; Ironically, Police filed cases against Hindus. Minority Appeasement continues.

On March 4, 2025, Muslims attacked Hindu devotees who were participating in the annual Veerabhadraswamy Paruveta Utsavam in Rayachoti, Annamayya district. They received prior permission for the procession from the Police Department. This annual ritual, associated with the 1,300-year-old temple, has been a longstanding tradition, attracting devotees from neighboring Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.  As the procession reached Tana Junction at around 6 PM, a group of Muslims from a mosque objected, questioning how Hindus dared to participate in the Sri Veerabhadraswamy Paruveta Utsavam with a police escort. Soon, nearly 500 people gathered in the vicinity, shouting threats to kill the devotees and creating an atmosphere of terror. One individual took to the microphone, announcing, “Police ne hamku doka diya”, further inciting the mob. The agitated crowd from around the mosque, as well as from narrow lanes, began pelting stones at the Hindu devotees.  The police, too, came under attack, sustaining injuries as their helmets and shields were damaged. Despite repeated appeals by police officials to de-escalate the situation, the mosque leaders and the mob refused to disperse. As the violence escalated, the police resorted to a lathi charge to restore order. At one point, Superintendent of Police (SP) V. Vidhya Sagar Naidu, IPS, who attempted to reach out to Muslim leaders inside the mosque, was attacked with shoes hurled at him.  Earlier, a peace committee convened before the procession had extended its support for the event. However, despite this, the violent attack occurred. Later that night, the police filed two separate cases—one against Hindus and another against Muslims. However, contradictions emerged in the versions of police officers. Reserve Police Inspector J. Narasimha Reddy, in his complaint, named 16 Hindus and others as accused and filed a case under sections 189(2), 191(2), 191(3), 132, sections 189(2), 191(2), 191(3), 132, 109, 196, 351(2), 61(2), 324(4) r/w 190 BNS-2023 and Section 3 of the PDPP Act. TTD Trust Board member Bhanu Prakash Reddy visited the Hindu devotees who were arrested during the Veerabhadraswamy Paruveta Utsavam and imprisoned in Kadapa Central Jail. He assured them of full support in every way. He urged the state government to immediately identify and strictly punish the religious extremists responsible for the attack and to take necessary measures to prevent such incidents from recurring.   Hindus across the state staged demonstrations following a call by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Andhra Pradesh... Protests in front of RDO The massive Protest rally was organized by Vishwa Hindu Parishad and other organizations, including the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation, in front of the RDO office in Tirupati town condemning the Veerbhadra Swami condemning the unjust attack on the devotees of Sri Veerabhadra Swamy by Muslims in Rayachoti and protested illegal cases filed against Hindus Huge protests demanding suspension of the appointed police officers. Later, organizers submitted a petition to the officials related to the RDO office. In this program, Dr Chandrappa Garu, Sri Bhanu Prakash Reddy, GHHF representative Smt. Rama Devi and other leaders participated. Viswa Hindu Parishad Tirupati District president Sudhakar Babu claimed that this was not the first time that Hindus were attacked. “It is very sad to know that police officials are showing partiality in filing cases. During the procession of Veerabhadra Swamy in Rayachoti, miscreants of another religion have attacked the Hindus.” “Earlier also, a few persons from the other religion attacked a group of Hindu people going to Ayyappa Swamy Yatra from Rayachoti. We seriously condemn the continuous attacks on Hindu people,” he said. GHHF Submitted a Letter to the RDO Office. A seven-member committee headed by Smt. Rama Devi submitted a letter to the RDO officer requesting him to investigate and take appropriate action immediately against the culprit who attacked Hindu Temple devotees who were going on a procession. These Culprits exhibited hatred toward Hindus and attacked Hindus and Police officers. GHHF demands appropriate severe action against these attackers.  GHHF Demands State government to act immediately. Global Hindu Heritage Foundation demands the State government to investigate the incident and take appropriate actions against Muslims who attacked the Hindu devotees who were organizing an annual Procession carrying Sri Veerabhadra Swamy Murti. The police Department must be investigated for filing false cases against Hindus who were the victims at the hands of Muslims.                  We demand the State government to stop Muslim appeasement and deny the rights of Hindus as per the constitution. Filing false cases to appease any group is unacceptable. {{album_1332}}

[GHHF] World Agnihotra Day celebrated highlighting the importance and the benefits for humans and Nature.

“Be Grateful to the man you help, think of Him as God. Is it not a great privilege to be allowed to worship God by helping our fellow men?” Swami Vivekananda Every year, World Agnihotra Day is celebrated across the globe on March 12. It is believed that Agnihotra is the solution to face endangered civilizations.  Agnihotra is the process of purifying the atmosphere through fire. This healing fire comes from the Vedas, the most ancient body of knowledge known to humans.  Agnihotra has three inputs: - Specific organic substances burned in a copper pyramid shaped Havan Kund- Timings Agnihotra is performed at, sunrise and sunset at one’s locality. Vibrational input in the form of a short Sanskrit mantras Agnihotra heals the environment. It can be used for personal healing, gardening and farming, and in psychotherapy. In performing Agnihotra, numerous individuals around the world have experienced various benefits, such as improved health, increased energy and less reduced levels of stress. Agnihotra only takes a few minutes per instance to perform.  Agnihotra is an ancient fire ceremony that is mentioned from the sacred Vedic scriptures. “AGNI” refers to the fire while “HOTRA” means healing. This sacred ritual has numerous purposes – purifying the environment, healing the person performing the prayer and many persons in the surrounding areas, among other benefits. Agnihotra requires these materials: - Copper pyramid of specific shape and size- Dried cow dung- Ghee (clarified unsalted butter from cow’s milk)- Whole grain raw brown rice- Agnihotra Mantras.  Agnihotra is a healing fire from the ancient science of Ayurveda. It is a process of purifying the atmosphere through a specially prepared fire performed at sunrise and sunset daily. Anyone in any walk of life can do Agnihotra and heal the atmosphere in his/her own home. Importance of Yajna: To eliminate the poisonous gases that spread as a consequence of nuclear explosions, it is necessary to burn fragrant matter and plants and spread their smoke. Also, if the Indian method of performing Yajna is adopted, it will not only eliminate all types of pollutions but also curb radioactivity. We should take into consideration the decision arrived at through the conclusions based on the research on this subject by western scientists. Agnihotra reduces stress, leads to greater clarity of thought, improves overall health, gives one increased energy, and makes the heart and mind fuller of love. The Benefits of Agnihotra •    Mental tension disappears and you begin to experience peace. •    Agnihotra smoke gathers particles of harmful radiation and on a very subtle level neutralizes their  effect. •    Agnihotra renews brain cells, revitalizes the skin and purifies the blood. •    Agnihotra neutralizes pathogenic bacteria. •    Breathing Agnihotra smoke has an excellent effect on the circulatory, brain and nervous system •    Plants, animals and humans receive nutrition from the vibrations of Agnihotra atmosphere,  become happy and grow well. •    Agnihotra ash can be used to purify water resources and for medicines. •    Agnihotra helps children diagnose ADD/ADHD. It has a calming effect by having the child focus  on the fire. •    Reduction of allergies. Exactly at the sunrise or sunset time utter the Mantras and give the offerings of rice mixed with a little ghee to the fire, after each Sváhá. Say the Mantras once only. If you miss the timings, you will not have the healing effect of Agnihotra. After each Agnihotra try to spare as many minutes as you can for meditation. Sit quietly until the fire goes out.

[GHHF] Holi Celebrations – what can we teach our children and what is the message of Holi.

Holi is not only a festival of colors, but it also gives a great message that goodness always wins and evil always loses. Let us look at the legend behind this festival in more detail about Prahlad, Hiranyakashipu, and Holika. Hiranyakashipu's Arrogance Once upon a time, Hiranyakashipu, the enemy of the gods, was a very powerful king on earth. He received a boon from Lord Brahma, which says, "I shall not be killed by any god, by any demon, not on earth, not in the sky, not at night, not by day, not by any weapon." ● After receiving this boon, he considered himself immortal and greater than God and ordered that he himself be worshipped as God. Moreover, he used to torture those who worshipped Lord Vishnu. Prahlad, a devotee of God Hiranyakashipu's son Prahlad was a devotee of Lord Vishnu since childhood. ● He always chanted the name of God by saying "Om Narayanaya Namah". ● Even in the Gurukul, he used to teach other children that "If you worship God, you will attain salvation". ● Seeing this, Hiranyakashipu became very angry – "Is my son a devotee of my enemy, Vishnu?" he said. When Hiranyakashipu tried to kill Prahlad… ● Hiranyakashipu wanted to make Prahlad stop his devotion to God. ● First, he sent gurus to change his mind. But Prahlad did not give up his devotion. ● Then he called his army and ordered them to kill Prahlad. They threw him upside down from the mountain – but Mother Earth saved him. ● They gave him poison – but it turned into nectar. ● They tried to trample him with elephants – but they left without doing anything. No matter how many attempts, nothing happened to Prahlad… Burning of Holika – the end of evil! ● Finally, his younger sister Holika told Hiranyakashipu a trick. ● Holika had a "boon that she does not burn in fire". ● She wanted to go into the fire with Prahlad sitting on her lap. But who can stop the play of God? ● While Holika was sitting in the fire, Prahlad escaped safely by the grace of God. Holika was burned because she used her boon with malicious intent. Holika is burned to mark this event as the victory of good over evil. Narasimha Swamy Avatar & End of Hiranyakashipu ● Hiranyakashipu finally asked his son – "Where is your God?" ● "He is there, he is here, he is everywhere!" Prahlad replied. ● Angrily, Hiranyakashipu hit a pillar – "Is he in this pillar too?" ● The pillar cracked, and Narasimha Swamy (with a lion's face and a human body) emerged from it! ● In accordance with Hiranyakashipu's boon, Narasimha did the following: ● Not on earth, not in the air – he killed him by putting him in his lap. ● Not at night, not during the day – he killed him in the evening. ● Not with any weapon – he killed him with his claws. Thus the wicked perished and the devotee triumphed. The message of the festival of Holi ✔ Good always wins, evil always loses. ✔ Burning Holika destroys bad thoughts, anger and jealousy. ✔ By sprinkling colors, we symbolize that we embrace new life and happiness. How should children celebrate Holi? ● They should salute the elders. ● They should use safe colors that do not harm nature. ● They should eat sweets and share them with everyone. ● They should spread love & friendship to everyone. Questions to ask children: ● What boon did Hiranyakashipu receive from Lord Brahma? ● Who was Prahlad a devotee of since childhood? ● Why did Hiranyakashipu want to kill his son Prahlad? ● Why did Holika burn in the fire? ● How did Lord Narasimha kill Hiranyakashipu?

[GHHF] Letter to Pawan Kalyan – Remove Illegal Churches, Remove Loudspeakers, Stop Atrocities Act Abuse, and stop Lawlessness in Andhra Pradesh; God save Bharat. Dear Sri Pawan Kalyan Garu:

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation was started in 2006 to free Hindu Temples from government control and preserve, promote, and protect Sanatana Dharma. When you were elected as MLA and appointed Deputy Chief Minister, GHHF and every Hindu was excited and enthusiastic, thinking that a true Hindu surfaced in Bharat to protect Sanatana Dharma. Your speeches inspired many Hindus who believed they may have seen a true Sanatini.              Many of your speeches still ring in the ears of many Hindus. You have become a talk of the Hindu community across the globe. They even memorized your statements with so much faith. They defended you in all the discussions by saying he is the only one with guts, courage, and bravery who proudly announced that he is an unabashed Hindu. •         You called for forming a 'Sanatana Dharma Protection Board' at both the national and state levels to safeguard the principles of Sanatana Dharma and ensure its preservation across the country. •         You mentioned, "There should be non-cooperation with those who spread hatred against Sanatana Dharma."  •         A strong national Act is required to protect Sanatana Dharma and prevent actions that harm its beliefs. This Act should be enacted immediately and uniformly enforced across Bharat. •         In the 'Varahi' declaration, you called upon Sanatanis (Hindus) to unite and transcend regional, linguistic, and other divides to stand against the attacks on Sanatana Dharma.  •         You proposed a Sanatana Dharma Certification system to ensure the purity of materials used in offerings and prasadams at all temples across India. You even stated, “If my Sanatana dharma is disturbed, I will come out. I will fight and if necessary, I will sacrifice my life …. "Even if I lose my post as Deputy Chief Minister, I will not hesitate, I will go to any length to protect Dharma." MEMO ISSUED ON February 10, 2025 MEMO No 271264 issued by K. Anand, the Commissioner of Panchayat Raj and Rural Development (PR&RD), has directed all District Panchayat Officers across the state’s 26 districts to investigate to find out whether the churches in their district were constructed with permission or without permission. If the churches are operating without permission, the Commissioner instructed them to take legal action per the Rules related to Andhra Pradesh Gram Panchayat Land Development (Layout and Building) Rules 2002.              If Churches are operating illegally and constructed without permission from proper authorities such as the District Collector, they should be removed as per G.O 67 and 376 issued on November 29, 2012. This is the law of Andhra Pradesh under the aegis of Panchayat Raj and the Rural Development Department. You have every right to enforce the law to remove all illegal Churches.  SHOCKING - Memo Withdrawn Within a few days, on March 5, 2025, the Commissioner of PR & RD issued another memo withdrawing the original order. It simply stated,” Based on the above matter, this secretariat is withdrawing the Memo No 2712164/CPR&RD/D8/2024.”             Unprecedented pressure has played to influence the Department and Pawan Kalyan to withdraw the Memo. As much as he appreciated the richness of Sanatana Dharma and as much as he wanted to protect it, if he had to agree to withdraw the Memo abruptly, one can imagine the untold, indefinable, and grueling pressure put on him to accept the withdrawal. How many Churches are there in Andhra Pradesh? How many are built illegally? As you are aware, there are more than 10,000 churches in 2021. As Covid-19 support, the Jagan Government gave one-time financial aid to 29,000 pastors from the unorganized churches and prayer halls. It seems that there are 40,000 pastors and 4.5 lakh unofficial pastors. Although we do not have an accurate number of churches in Andhra Pradesh, there may be as many as 12,000 churches in 2025.              If we want to know how many Churches there are in Andhra Pradesh, the best thing is to instruct all Collectors to provide information on how many Churches were given in their respective districts. Every government wants to know accurate information on any given matter. We always collect information for the accuracy and protection of the structures.  Not a single Church is built with Permission in Tirupati Global Hindu Heritage Foundation requested the Chittoor Collector, Tirupati Urban Development Authorities, and Mandal Officer in 2021 using the Right to Information Act to send a list of Churches permitted to be built in Tirupati. They all said they had not been permitted to build in Tirupati.             About 100 Churches in Tirupati have been operated for years without proper authorization. They did not get permission to build. That means every Church you see is built illegally.             Is there any LAW and ORDER in Andhra Pradesh that allows these Churches under their nose and in front of their eyes? What a pity. WE REQUEST PANCHAYAT RAJ Department the following: 1)     Remove Illegal Churches. Please instruct all the District Collectors to send you reports indicating how many Churches were permitted to be built. As you already know, Christians do not get permission because they play the VOTE BANK politics game. Politicians fall prey to their deception, cheat, and take bribes. Probably, you know by now how politicians act toward Christians and Muslims.              Sorry to say that we Hindus are ready to sacrifice our Sanatana Dharma and stab her mercilessly by promoting illegal activities of other religions. Our politicians go as low as possible, bend as much as needed, and attack Hindu Mata as much as required to please the other two religions.             In the next decade or so, Hindus may not even be able to celebrate their festivals as you have seen in Raya Choti in December as what happened to Ayyappa devotees and recently to Sri Veerabhadra Swamy procession.               Dear PAWAN Garu: How long will you remain SILENT?   2)      Remove all Loudspeakers Many Churches and Mosques have loudspeakers installed, and they blast in high volume either their prayers or speeches, creating chaos in the villages. Many people, especially children and seniors, cannot do their work, sleep, or even talk in their own houses because of the LOUD noise. Muslims pray loudly in the villages and even in major cities, and they do Azaan five times a day. That is even against their religion: Allah says, ‘Do not make your prayer loud. Don't slow it down. Seek a way between it'' (Isra 110). Christians installed loudspeakers in every church and play their speeches, confessions, and prayers so loud for hours that nobody can rest or have peace of mind; even the health of people is affected. Some of them may even experience anxiety and stress.  Christians and Muslims defy the Noise Pollution Act, which specifies the noise level to be at 55 decibels during the daytime and 45 at night. Any violation may result in heavy fines and the repossession of the sound emitting device. As Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis stated you should announce that any violation of prescribed noise limits—55 decibels during the day and 45 decibels at night—will result in the permanent revocation of loudspeaker permits. He also said, “If police fail to enforce noise regulations, they too will face consequences.”             No department is monitoring and taking appropriate action to cease the equipment that emits more noise than is expected. Police Officers do not act even if the villagers complain. 3)      STOP the Abuse of Atrocities Act   The Atrocities Act is a curse of the nation. It is a blot in India. This act is abused daily to silence the people who may have legitimate complaints. SC Communities takes advantage of this act and files cases against people who might complain about noise pollution. Instead of acting against the Churches and Mosques, they file fake cases against the so-called upper caste.              The original Atrocities Act allowed Police to file a case against a person without ever investigating whether there is any justification. After about 35 years of this Act, the Supreme Court acknowledged the abuse of this system.             Please make sure that the Atrocities Act is not abused, and a certain level of morality is maintained by the Police.   4)      STOP lawlessness in the State.   First, we request you to reconsider the withdrawal of the Memo that required the District Collectors to collect the information about the construction of Churches whether they were given permission or not.  What is wrong with being legal and following the rule of law?             Why was the Memo withdrawn? Hindus would like to ask you to explain why you withdrew.             Law and order are the foundation upon which civilized societies are built. They maintain stability, protect rights, and ensure justice.              How long are Hindu politicians going to turn their eyes away from the reality, from justice and law and order?             Can any society survive without law and order? By failing to enforce the law, we are contributing to societal instability and chaos.  Dear Pawan Garu:  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation requests that you reconsider withdrawing the original memo. That was the correct way of bringing harmony, stability, law, and order.  You should not stand by, overlooking the efforts of other religions whose mission is to tarnish Hinduism and root out its culture from Bharat. Christians and Muslims have been openly telling all Hindus that they are going to make India either a Muslim country or a Christian Country. They are openly challenging us with no consequences.             Since we believe you to be different from most politicians, please stand by morals, ethics, ahimsa, justice, equality, and fairness.              Hence, we request you to remove all illegally built Churches, remove all the loudspeakers, stop the abuse of the Atrocities Act, and stop the abuse of law and Order.             Please know that Sanatana Dharma is disturbed and undermined by promoting the illegal construction of Churches and allowing people to suffer from the loud noise inflicted by loudspeakers.             May God give you enough strength, courage, and confidence to stand up for law and Order.             Dhanyavad Prakasarao V Velagapudi PhD President, GHHF 601-918-7111
