​The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) firmly believes that the protection of Sanatana Dharma must not be confined to mere theories or speeches. True defense of Dharma lies in standing firmly with every single Hindu brother and sister facing oppression on the ground. In alignment with this mission, the National General Secretary of the organization, Rajesh Thunuguntla, recently undertook a two-day tour of the border regions of Rajasthan to oversee the ongoing service activities and directly inspect the living conditions of refugees. For the past two years, GHHF has been silently working in the Pakistani Hindu refugee camps located around Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. As no representative from the central organization had visited the field during this entire period, this tour was planned to personally study the harsh realities and formulate extensive long-term support systems. Currently, around 20,000 Pakistani Hindu refugees are living in extreme poverty and deplorable conditions in the desert areas surrounding Jaisalmer. ​On the first day of the tour, a visit to the '54 Rd Refugee Camp Digga' and '75 Rd Refugee Camp'—situated in the scorching heart of the desert, nearly 70 kilometers away from Jaisalmer city—revealed a heart-wrenching lifestyle of our fellow Hindus that would move anyone to tears. These human beings lack even the most basic civic amenities. The water they consume is so heavily contaminated and muddy that a person would hesitate to even wash their hands and feet with it. Yet, they are forced to drink this very water to quench their thirst and preserve their lives. Fleeing continuous violence, atrocities, humiliations, and forced conversions in Pakistan, these families have abandoned everything they owned to cross the border with the sole hope of saving their faith and the dignity of their children. Had they converted to Islam in Pakistan, they might have lived in comfort with full state benefits. However, driven by a fierce resolve not to abandon Sanatana Dharma till their last breath, they arrived here believing that Hindusthan would embrace them and fellow Hindus would stand by them. ​Yet, the ground reality they face here is profoundly inhumane. Most of them entered India on tourist visas and, out of pure fear for their lives, stayed back as refugees instead of returning to Pakistan. Since they have not yet been granted Indian citizenship, they possess neither Aadhaar cards nor Ration cards. Deprived of Ration cards, they face severe food shortages and struggle daily for a single meal. Worse still, on the pretext of not having an Aadhaar card, government hospitals deny them even basic emergency medical services. Just a few months before this visit, a heavily pregnant woman experiencing severe labor pain was rushed to the Jaisalmer Government Hospital. Despite desperate pleas from her family, the medical staff refused to admit her. That mother writhed in agony for two hours in the hospital corridor under the blazing heat and passed away without receiving any medical attention. Such tragic incidents have become a regular occurrence there. Furthermore, local government schools deny admission to refugee children, pushing an entire generation into the dark abyss of illiteracy. While political parties shower lofty promises of helping refugees, no one bothers to check on them at the ground level. Shattered by these brutal conditions and the dark future of their children, a few families have tragically returned to the living hell of Pakistan—a bitter truth shared by the locals with heavy tears. ​Presently, the refugees in these camps subsist as agricultural laborers in local farms, living in tiny makeshift huts built on the fields. Though each camp accommodates around 200 to 400 families, they do not live close together in a regular colony. Instead, they are scattered across agricultural lands spanning an area of 5 to 10 kilometers, living in isolation. Exploiting their helplessness, some locals extract forced labor from them, paying meager wages and subjecting them to immense hardship. During the visit to these two camps, small community meetings were organized with the residents. The village elders and seniors attended these meetings in large numbers. Describing their harrowing daily struggles, they broke down in tears, folded their hands, and pleaded with the organization to provide basic education for their children and healthcare facilities to save the sick. The deep pain and desperation in their eyes were enough to melt any heart. ​We sit in the comfort of our homes and weep over the attacks on Hindus dying in Pakistan and Bangladesh, but we cannot directly go to those countries to change their fate. However, we can absolutely support the 20,000 fellow Dharma Bandhus who have arrived on our soil as refugees, holding their lives in their hands. What is the value of our existence as Hindus if we cannot provide even the absolute basic necessities of food, shelter, and healthcare to those who came here trusting our Dharma? While granting citizenship is an administrative matter under the central government's jurisdiction that we cannot directly execute, we hold a collective social responsibility as a Hindu society to offer them an unshakeable reassurance. Currently, GHHF runs four Bala Samskara Kendras in Rajasthan to instill cultural values in children, but that alone is far from enough. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has resolved to establish dedicated schools for these refugee children, implement skill development programs to provide self-employment opportunities for the youth, and deploy Mobile Medical Clinics to deliver emergency healthcare directly to their doorsteps. A comprehensive mega project is being designed and will soon be presented to the public. This initiative does not require monumental wealth; if we all join hands, it can be accomplished with ease. By doing so, we can bring a new dawn into the lives of thousands of Hindu refugees. It is the bounden duty of every lover of Sanatana Dharma to honor and protect the trust with which these souls stepped onto the sacred land of Hindusthan. ​Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah!  Donations are appreciated.

While critics spread negativity online, Indian-origin professionals in the United States were quietly transforming American industries. They built tech companies worth trillions, led Fortune 500 corporations, cared for millions of patients, invented breakthrough technologies, and created hundreds of thousands of jobs. The results speak louder than hate. Fortune 500 Leadership: Indians Running America’s Biggest Companies Indian-origin executives now lead over 10% of Fortune 500 companies, controlling more than $6.5 trillion in combined market capitalization. This represents a remarkable concentration of corporate leadership from a community that makes up less than 1% of the US population. Satya Nadella transformed Microsoft from a struggling software company into the cloud computing and AI leader it is today. Under his leadership since 2014, Azure became the second-largest cloud platform globally, and Microsoft’s market cap grew from around $300 billion to over $3 trillion. Nadella’s shift to cloud-first strategy fundamentally changed how enterprises use technology worldwide. Sundar Pichai has led Google/Alphabet since 2015, overseeing Android, Chrome, YouTube, and AI technologies like Gemini. Google’s search dominance and cloud growth under Pichai made Alphabet one of the world’s most valuable companies. Other Indian-origin CEOs include Shantanu Narayen (Adobe), Arvind Krishna (IBM), Neal Mohan (YouTube), and leaders at Micron, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and more. These executives don’t just hold titles—they drive transformation, innovation, and profitability that benefits shareholders, employees, and the broader economy. Innovation and Patents: Thousands of Breakthroughs Indian-origin inventors have significantly boosted American innovation. USPTO data shows patents involving Indian talent reached approximately 5,984 annually by 2020, a dramatic increase from previous decades. Gurtej Singh Sandhu, an Indian-American scientist at IBM, holds over 1,300 US patents—making him one of the most prolific inventors in history. Indian-origin engineers at Qualcomm, Samsung, IBM, and other R&D labs drive breakthroughs in semiconductors, software, 4G/5G telecom, AI, and biotechnology. This systematic innovation isn’t accidental. Indian-origin professionals dominate STEM fields, receiving about 70% of US H-1B visas for tech and IT work. Their skills in software engineering, data science, systems architecture, and molecular biology keep American companies competitive globally. Economic Impact: Hundreds of Billions in Income The Indian diaspora in the US generates massive economic impact across multiple dimensions: Median household income of ~$176,000—the highest of any demographic group in America South Asians represent 29% of Asian buying power, totaling hundreds of billions in consumer spending Indian FDI in the US exceeds $16 billion, supporting tens of thousands of jobs and significant R&D investment The broader diaspora generates $700–1,000+ billion annually in global income Indian-owned companies in the UK generate £100+ billion in turnover and employ 200,000+ people. These aren’t abstract numbers—they represent real jobs, real taxes, and real economic growth that benefits host countries. Healthcare: Saving Lives Every Day Indian-origin physicians form 23% of all foreign-trained doctors in the US—the largest group of immigrant physicians. In the UK’s NHS, Indians historically comprised 30–40% of junior doctors. These doctors work in rural hospitals, urban clinics, research institutions, and teaching hospitals across America. They staff underserved areas, advance medical research, and save countless lives daily. When Americans go to hospitals for treatment, Indian-origin doctors are often the ones providing care. Global Recognition and Awards Indian-origin Americans have earned the world’s highest honors across multiple fields: Venkatraman Ramakrishnan won the 2009 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for determining ribosome structure Abhijit Banerjee won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Economics for experimental approaches to fighting global poverty Manjul Bhargava received the 2014 Fields Medal (mathematics’ highest honor) Akshay Venkatesh won the 2018 Fields Medal Beyond these, countless Indian-origin Americans receive Fortune leadership awards, medical honors, engineering recognitions, and philanthropy distinctions across every field. The Bottom Line Indian-origin Americans have delivered contributions disproportionate to their population size across leadership, innovation, patents, awards, income, job creation, and healthcare. This represents a “brain gain” for the United States, a multiplier for global innovation that strengthens both America and India through transnational ties. AI and digital transformation continue amplifying their role. The stock market doesn’t discriminate, it rewards performance. Businesses don’t survive on prejudice, they survive on results. And Indian-origin leaders consistently deliver results. Hate doesn’t build companies. Prejudice doesn’t create jobs. Bias doesn’t write code or perform surgery. But leadership, innovation, hard work, and service do, repeatedly, systematically, and overwhelmingly. The builders will keep building. The leaders will keep leading. And America will keep moving forward. https://kaulsuhaas.substack.com/p/how-indian-origin-americans-built

A Comprehensive Report on the Successful Completion of the 5-Day Ritual & Priesthood Training Camp at Dhone, Nandyal District (Phase 1). At the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF), we firmly believe that devotion and the privilege to serve the Divine recognize no barriers of caste or community. Driven by the resounding success of our previous initiative empowering ST brethren in the Alluri Sitharamaraju district, we proudly stepped forward to organize a comprehensive, five-day Arcaka (Priests) Training Program at Dhone in the Nandyal district. This transformative initiative brought together underrepresented Hindu brethren from the Anantapur and Nandyal districts, marking a monumental milestone in our journey toward spiritual empowerment and social harmony. The seamless execution of this extensive camp was driven by the tireless efforts of our dedicated GHHF Nandyal district coordinators, Sri Thirupal Ji and Sri Chiranjeevi Ji, who managed the responsibilities with utmost efficiency. Why This Training is the Need of the Hour: Social Transformation & Combating Conversions In many rural and tribal areas, a lack of deep scriptural awareness makes vulnerable communities a prime target for predatory and illegal religious conversions. At GHHF, we recognize that the most sustainable shield for our Dharma is the democratization of spiritual knowledge. By training our SC and ST brothers as certified Archakas, we are achieving a multi-layered social transformation: *Securing Our Temples : These newly trained priests will ensure that local village temples resonate with daily rituals, prayers, and Vedic chants, transforming them into vibrant centers of community gathering. * Erasing Social Divides: When an individual from a marginalized community steps into the sanctum sanctorum as a priest, it commands immense social respect and shatters outdated prejudices. It breathes life into the eternal truth: "Caste stays at the doorstep; once inside, we are all children of the same Divine." * Thwarting Predatory Conversions: When communities are active participants and custodians of their own religious practices, the roots of their faith run too deep for external forces to disrupt. Day 1: Awakening the Divine & The Core Rituals Our participants embraced an authentic spiritual lifestyle, waking well before sunrise to begin their day with Surya Namaskaras, Yoga, and Meditation. Following breakfast, an ice-breaking session allowed everyone to share their background and their deep-seated aspirations for embracing priesthood. Under the expert guidance of our head priest, Sri Anil Sharma Ji, the fundamental training commenced. The first day introduced the students to the Shodashopachara (16-step deity worship), Vinayaka Puja methodologies, precise mantra chanting, the sacred dress code of a priest, strict personal hygiene, the ritualistic use of Gangajal, and the core principles of Shiva Puja. They were also taught how to decipher the traditional calendar to identify auspicious and inauspicious times (Shubha/Ashubha Ghadailu). A major highlight was an enlightening discourse by Kalaratna Brahmasri Gandluri Dattatreya Sharma Shatavadhani Ji. Through beautiful narratives from the Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, and Mahabharata, he ignited spiritual consciousness among the trainees. He profoundly stated, “A priest is not just elected by human systems, but chosen directly by the Divine as a result of accumulated merits.” The evening concluded beautifully with a strong message of unity from Sri Onteddula Bandi Kiran, Vice President of the Sitarama Kalyana Mandapam, followed by vibrant, soulful Bhajans at the temple. Day 2: Navagraha Rituals & Scriptural Mastery Building upon the foundations of the first day, Day 2 turned its focus exclusively toward the intricate Navagraha (Nine Planets) worship. Sri Anil Sharma Ji broke down the vast methodologies and foundational mantras into easily understandable segments. In the afternoon, our regional coordinators, Sri Thirupal Ji and Sri Hanumanthu Ji, conducted rigorous revision sessions, guiding the trainees through repetitive practice to perfect their Sanskrit pronunciation. The evening concluded with community-led devotional hymns at the local Tirumala Veeranjaneya Swamy Temple. Day 3: Practical Mastery & Performing Sacred Marriages On the third day, the training shifted from theory to heavy practical implementation. Sri Anil Sharma Ji imparted deep knowledge regarding the astronomical and spiritual placements of the Navagrahas inside a temple—explaining which direction each planet faces, their cosmic influences on human lives, and the specific Shanti Pujas required to mitigate them. Instead of just lecturing, our trainers had the participants physically recreate the Navagraha layout, standing in respective positions to thoroughly memorize the alignments. Furthermore, the session addressed the detailed Vedic and scriptural steps required to perform marriages within temples, addressing every question with scholarly clarity. Day 4: Precision, Articulation, and Individual Mentorship Day 4 was dedicated to perfecting the nuances. Priesthood demands absolute precision in mantra articulation. Sri Anil Sharma Ji monitored each participant individually from the beginning to the end of a puja sequence. Every single trainee had to chant and perform the rituals independently. Any minor errors in tone, rhythm, or physical gestures were corrected on the spot, ensuring that every participant emerged confident, accurate, and completely self-reliant. Day 5: The Grand Culmination & A New Spiritual Dawn The final day bore witness to an incredible transformation. Sri Anil Sharma Ji summarized the entire coursework and delivered an inspiring message on the profound nobility and social responsibility tied to a priest's life. The emotional feedback from our trainees was deeply moving. Many expressed that these five days passed in a flash and wished the camp could have been extended. They shared that this opportunity has opened a new, dignified chapter in their lives, and they declared with immense pride that they are now fully prepared to return to their respective villages to serve as spiritual torchbearers. The evening drew to a close with final prayers and Bhajans at the Tirumala Veeranjaneya Swamy Temple. Our Commitment to Free Spiritual Education To ensure that financial barriers never stand in the way of practicing Dharma, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation provided this entire five-day training program completely free of charge. GHHF proudly took care of all expenses, including premium study materials, comfortable accommodation, high-quality vegetarian meals, and round-trip travel costs for every single participant. An Appeal to Our Devoted Donors: Help Us Expand Our Mission While we celebrate the magnificent success of this first phase, our mission is vast. There are thousands of villages across the nation waiting for this spiritual revival. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is actively running numerous preservation and outreach projects—from protecting ancient temples and operating Bala Samskara Kendras to distributing spiritual literature and conducting mass reconversion (Ghar Wapsi) programs. An initiative of this magnitude requires immense resources. We cannot do this alone. With the continuous support and generous contributions of patrons and donors like you, we can scale this program to train thousands more underrepresented brothers, securing the future of our eternal Dharma. We humbly request you to stand with us, contribute to our causes, and become an active partner in this historic spiritual renaissance. Jai Sri Ram!  Donations are appreciated.

Andhra Pradesh government appointed TDP’s NRI wing leader and former president of Telugu Association of North America (TANA), Komati Jayaram, as its Special Representative for North America.  In January 2026.     On Sunday, he visited the Karya Siddhi Hanuman Temple, where he was honored by the Executive members. Then he met with the KSHT Executive Committee members and spent about 15 minutes talking about his business and political interests.      Later, he visited the residence of Nandini and Prakasarao, where he was facilitated and honored. A grand facilitation ceremony was held at Prism at Las Colinas in Irving, Texas. Several Community leaders extolled his leadership qualities and recalled their decades-long association with him. In an order issued, Jayaram, in the capacity of special representative, will liaise with, facilitate, and assist all officials and dignitaries of the AP government traveling to North America. He would also mobilize financial, technical, and human resources from North America for the economic, social, cultural, and tourism development of AP. Earlier, Jayaram served as the president of the Telugu Association of North America (TANA). Hailing from Krishna district, Jayaram joined the Telugu Desam Party in 2004. Jayaram is the son of former Congress MLA Komati Bhaskar Rao, who represented the Mylavaram Assembly seat in Krishna district from 1989 to 1994. However, the NRI leader has been with the TDP since he joined the party in 2004 after leaving Congress. Jayaram, who resides in Milpitas, Santa Clara County, California, founded the Swagat group of hotels. He also owns a chain of Indian restaurants in California. He is the founder and president of the first Telugu newspaper in North America. WWW.savetemples.org {{album_1605}}

Then The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has been working with several Hindu activists in West Bengal, including Tapan Ghosh, for more than 15 years. We provide financial support for his tireless effort to protect our Hindu ladies from the mafia, harboring them in the shelters, and providing opportunities to stand on their own feet. Tapan Ghosh came to Dallas twice and stayed with Milita Chand. GHHF organized two events talking about the plight of Hindus in West Bengal.      Also, I invited him to present the situation in Bengal at an international conference held at the Dwarka Temple Complex in Andhra Pradesh, with Dr. Subramanian Swamy as the chief guest.      One of the articles I wrote was on West Bengal, entitled “West Bengal is Burning; Hindu women are repeatedly raped, villages ransacked.”  This is the summary of what I wrote in " What is happening to Hindus in West Bengal is horrible, inhuman, atrocious, demoralizing, and brutal. It is a lesson all Hindus have to learn sooner or later. Sooner the better. If we cannot stop these expansions, infiltrations, and tortures, we will face the same fate our forefathers have experienced. If we did not learn from the past history of Muslim rule for nearly ten centuries, Hindus are going to face ethnic cleansing, as Pakistan has done.     The Mamata government used government funds to support Muslim communities. Allowed illegal infiltration of Muslims from Bangladesh, restrictions imposed on the procession of Hindu deities Lord Rama and Durga Mata during festivals, and denigrated Hindu Gods and customs.  Now Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari is on a mission to restore law and order, stop infiltration, end appeasement, and much more to bring justice to the State. He has taken several decisions to implement initiatives that benefit the people. 1)    To stop the infiltration of Muslims from Bangladesh, a decision was taken to transfer approximately 600 acres of land to the Border Security Force (BSF) to facilitate fencing along the India-Bangladesh border. Adhikari directed the Chief Secretary and the Land and Revenue Department to complete the process within 45 days. 2)    The government ordered a crackdown on cattle smuggling and unauthorized cattle movement, instructing police to strengthen checks in border districts and investigate illegal markets. 3)    The government issued immediate orders to commence census operations in the state. Adhikari criticized the previous government for an 11-month delay in response to a Union Home Ministry directive dated June 16, 2025. 4)    Ban on street namaz: Adhikari has officially banned offering Namaz on public roads and streets across the state. According to statements by BJP leaders and administrative directives, the policy mandates that all religious prayers be confined strictly to designated religious premises or mosques. The restriction is intended to prioritize public convenience, maintain law and order, and prevent traffic disruptions 5)    The cabinet decided to extend social security and government support to families of individuals affected by alleged political atrocities. Adhikari referred to 321 BJP supporters who lost their lives during the party’s struggle in the state. 6)    The state cabinet voted to discontinue all government welfare assistance based on religious classification. Funding for specific allowances run by the Minority Affairs, Madrasa Education, and Information and Culture departments will officially cease. 7)    The government introduced strict restrictions on public religious practices, blocking roadways, such as street prayers, and clamped down on illegal structures. Law enforcement has also been directed to use heavy administrative action against illegal encroachments. 8)    Adhikari issued a stern warning to protesters in Park Circus, asserting that stone-pelting will be eliminated in the state, just like in Jammu and Kashmir. Times are exciting. Hopes are high. People are waiting for peace and tranquility. They believe the present government has already made several major decisions in reversing the unruly, bloody, chaotic, and corrupt government.  Donations are appreciated.

Indo US Tribune News Desk May 29, 2026 A meeting organized by the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) on the theme “Hinduism at Crossroads: Time for Action” drew community members, religious advocates, and supporters to India Hub in Chicago on May 24, where speakers discussed Hindu temple autonomy, preservation of Sanatana Dharma, and concerns over government interference in religious institutions in India. Organizers described the event as a major success and said it highlighted the organization’s two-decade-long efforts to protect Hindu religious institutions and traditions. According to GHHF leaders, the organization was founded nearly 20 years ago by Chairman Prasad Yalamanchi and other board members with two central objectives: freeing Hindu temples from state government control and preserving, protecting, and promoting Sanatana Dharma. The organization said it is currently involved in 16 projects across India. During the presentation, speakers alleged that several state governments in India have exercised excessive control over Hindu temples by taking over temple lands and funds, appointing politically connected individuals to temple boards, and using temple revenues for non-religious purposes. They argued that such actions violate Articles 25 and 26 of the Indian Constitution, which guarantee religious freedom and the right of religious groups to manage their own institutions. The speakers claimed that while Hindu temples have been placed under government administration in several states, churches and mosques have largely remained independent. GHHF representatives said Hindu organizations and activists have challenged these practices in various High Courts and the Supreme Court over the years. According to the organization, a recent development in the Supreme Court may mark an important turning point. GHHF leaders stated that the Court had sought the opinion of the Central Government regarding state control of temples and that the Union government supported releasing temples from state administration. Speakers called May 18, 2026, a “historic day” in the movement for Hindu temple autonomy. A major portion of the discussion focused on the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), which administers the Tirumala temple complex in Andhra Pradesh. GHHF representatives said the organization had raised concerns over what they described as non-spiritual activities and commercial projects near Tirumala and Tirupati. Among the issues discussed was the proposed construction of the Mumtaj Hotel near Tirumala Hills. Speakers alleged that the project conflicted with the sacred atmosphere of the temple town and said sustained opposition from Hindu groups eventually led to its cancellation. The organization also objected to the proposed Lulu Mall project in Tirupati, arguing that large-scale commercial developments could alter the demographic and cultural character of the city. GHHF further criticized permission allegedly granted for a large Tablighi Jamaat gathering in Tirupati, expressing concerns about maintaining the sanctity of the temple region. GHHF Chicago meeting focuses on Hindu temple autonomy and preservation of Sanatana Dharma. Another issue raised during the meeting was the alleged employment of non-Hindus within the TTD administration. GHHF said it had repeatedly requested investigations into claims that Christians were employed in significant numbers within temple operations. As part of its proposed solutions, the organization renewed its demand for Tirumala, Tirupati, and Tiruchanur to be officially declared “Punyakshetra,” or holy zones, where restrictions on alcohol, meat, and other activities considered inconsistent with the spiritual character of the region would apply. Speakers cited former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao, who had once envisioned Tirupati as a global spiritual center for Hindus comparable in significance to the Vatican for Christians. The meeting also addressed what organizers described as opposition faced by GHHF while attempting to hold awareness programs in Tirupati. According to the organization, permissions for meetings at several venues, including a TTD facility and other locations, were canceled shortly before scheduled events discussing temple sanctity and the proposed holy zone designation. GHHF additionally criticized comments allegedly made in 2025 by B. R. Naidu, Chairman of the TTD Board. Organizers claimed that Naidu accused the organization of misleading Hindus and questioned its activities after GHHF publicly advocated for declaring Tirupati and Tirumala as protected religious zones. The event also highlighted the actions of Andhra Pradesh politician Raghu Rama Krishna Raju, whom speakers praised for advocating stricter enforcement of laws related to illegal religious structures and public order issues. Concluding the program, speakers called for equal treatment of all religions under the law while urging Hindus to work collectively to preserve temple traditions and religious heritage. Organizers also acknowledged the contributions of community members and volunteers who supported the Chicago event, including Harish Kolasani for providing India Hub as the venue and several others who assisted with outreach and arrangements.

Texas Hindus Targeted Wrongly Labeled As Muslims Amid Frisco City Council Controversy SUHAAS KAUL MAY 24, 2026 https://kaulsuhaas.substack.com/p/hindus-are-not-muslims-the-dangerous Indian Hindus in Texas are growing increasingly frustrated as they are wrongly conflated with Muslims in public discourse. This confusion has real consequences for Hindu Americans who face the same suspicion and hostility directed at Muslim communities despite having nothing in common with them. The conflation ignores the profound differences in history, philosophy, and values between these two faiths while overlooking the massive contributions Hindu Americans have made to Texas and the United States. The Frisco City Council Incident At the last Frisco City Council meeting, council member Jake Lang sparked controversy by speaking about Hindus and Muslims taking over Texas as if they were the same group. This remark demonstrated a fundamental misunderstanding that has real consequences for Hindu Americans who are now being targeted with the same suspicion and hostility directed at Muslim communities. Lang’s comment ignored the fact that Hindus and Muslims have completely different religious texts, practices, histories, and relationships with American society…… For the rest of the article, click this link: https://kaulsuhaas.substack.com/p/hindus-are-not-muslims-the-dangerous

“Shall I be born again in this country so as to serve my motherland? If God gives me another birth, I shall be born in Bharat and shall serve Bharat till my last breath.” — Vinayak Damodar Savarkar The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to inform you that we are conducting about 200 Bala Samskar Kendras across nine States in India – Assam, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Tamil Nadu. We have many active Hindus who are helping in different ways to ensure our children are taught about the richness of Sanatana Dharma. Each school teaches different things, yet they follow the required syllabus to ensure all students learn the same common material. It is challenging because students' ages vary from one school to another. Who is Veer Savarkar? Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (28 May 1883 – 26 February 1966), was an Indian politician, activist, and writer. Savarkar developed the Hindu nationalist political ideology of Hindutva while imprisoned at Ratnagiri in 1922. He was a leading figure in the Hindu Mahasabha. He started using the honorific prefix Veer ("brave") since he wrote his autobiography. Savarkar joined the Hindu Mahasabha and popularized the term Hindutva (Hinduness), previously coined by Chandranath Basu, to create a collective "Hindu" identity as an essence of Bharat (India). In 1923, he published Essentials of Hindutva (Hindutva: Who is a Hindu?) under a pseudonym while still a prisoner. He insisted that Hinduism, the body of religious beliefs and practices, was only a small part of something far larger. As he put it, Hinduism was a fraction, a derivative, of Hindutva. Hindutva was meant to capture an entire civilization, its history, art, language, and shared memory, rather than a set of theological doctrines. Three essentials of Hindutva are: a common Rashtra, a common race sharing a common ancestry, and a common language. He wanted Hindus to think of themselves as a consolidated political community rather than a fragmented community divided by caste and sects.  Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, commonly known as Swatantryaveer Savarkar, was a fearless freedom fighter, social reformer, writer, dramatist, poet, historian, political leader, and philosopher. He remains largely unknown to the masses because of vicious propaganda against him and misunderstandings that have arisen over several decades. This website seeks to present Savarkar's life, thoughts, actions, and relevance to a global audience. Savarkar first advised Hindus not to be ashamed to say that they were Hindus “Do not think that it is inferior or anti-national to say that you are a Hindu. Do not be ashamed to take pride in worshipping Shriram, Srikrishna, Chhatrapati Shivaji, Maharana Pratap, and Guru Govind Singh. There has to be one country in this galaxy for Hindus, and they should prosper in their country. For that, pay attention to their purification (taking back converted Hindus) and their unification! Purification work is not only religious but also political.” – Veer Savarkar If we forget Shriram then ……..! Veer Savarkar had immense reverence for Shriram and Shri Krishna. He used to say that both were army chiefs and the country's supreme leaders. In 1909, he celebrated Vijaya-Dashami in London. Remembering the work done by Prabhu Shriramchandra during his era, he said, “When Shriram gave up his kingdom, superficially to obey his father’s word, but mainly for the eradication of demons, He did a great job. When Shriram attacked Lanka and got ready for the unavoidable and righteous battle, that of slaying Ravana, His work was superior. But when he left Seeta in the forest, even after she proved herself, as per the saying ‘Aaraadhanaay Lokasya Munchato Naasti Me Vyathaa’, His work as an incarnation was supreme. He gave up His personal duty and duty towards His family for His duty as a leader of people and a King. O Hindus, till you keep Rama’s work as His incarnation and His idol in your heart, there is hope of your regress easily getting stopped. Till the son of Dasharath, brother of Lakshman, master of Maruti , and husband of Seeta is in Hindustan, it is easy to accomplish Hindustan’s progress; but when we forget Shriram, nothing will remain. The Congress rulers have, however, forgotten Shriram, and none of the literary giants feel like admonishing them. Is it a misfortune for this country or a regression in literary acumen? The greatness of India in the eyes of Veer Savarkar According to Savarkar, the proponent of the Hindu Mahasabha, this land has been sanctified by the holy water from the tireless penance of Saints like Vasishta and Namdev. The prose of Maharshi Vyas and the Bhagavad Gita of Srikrishna are the epitome of literature. Ramayan is the nourishing Ksheerasagar. Great women like Damayanti, Savitri, Gargi, and Seeta were born in this land. Researchers like Kanad, Bhaskar, Aryabhata, Varahamihir; seers like Mahavir, Shankara, Ramanuj, Nanak, Dayanand, Vivekananda became one with the great history of the land. Awareness created by Savarkar kept a large part of the area under Hindus rule during the partition of Hindustan! In 1937, Savarkar’s house arrest in Ratnagiri was lifted, and he was granted permission to participate in politics; but by then, the freedom struggle under Gandhi's leadership had shifted towards undivided Pakistan rather than undivided Hindustan. Even in such a situation, Savarkar showed such bravery that one would feel that he was in the category of ‘Tadaatmaanam Srujaamyaham’. Savarkar was the lone fighter but was full of inspiration drawn from history, traditions, moral values, and willpower. He stopped the speedy train of Indian freedom fight running on rails towards Pakistan with both his hands and, lifting the engine, brought it back to the rails of undivided Hindustan. Savarkar was fighting alone on four fronts against the British Government, Congress, Muslim League, and misled Hindus who were confused with the non-violent principle. In this turmoil, however, some part of this great country slipped, creating Pakistan, and the rest of the country, however, remained available to Hindus. Savarkar was neither tired nor disheartened. He was busy convincing the helpless, tired Hindus that with one shock, the newly created Pakistan could be destroyed. Credit of independence given to even unsaid prayers ….…! India’s freedom does not belong to a single party, any individual, or select group. It belongs to the common man. I will go even further and say that those who didn’t take an active part in either armed or unarmed secret or open freedom movement; the credit for this national victory also goes to our millions of brethren who had empathy in their hearts and made heartfelt prayers expressed or otherwise. – Veer Savarkar, 1952 Promoting words from a foreign language in lieu of one’s own is akin to adopting children after murdering your own!

With the core mission of protecting Sanatana Dharma and reviving Hindu cultural traditions, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) has orchestrated another monumental event in Rajahmundry. The foundation presented a magnificent five-foot-tall idol of Sri Abhayahasta Anjaneya Swamy to the 16th Ward Sri Ramalayam Temple Committee in Mahadevawambe Colony, Rajahmundry. To mark this auspicious occasion, special homams and sacred rituals were performed with utmost devotion in accordance with Vedic traditions. Along with the Sri Abhayahasta Anjaneya Swamy idol, the Prana Pratishta (consecration ceremony) for the Sri Sanjeevani Anjaneya Swamy idol was also performed flawlessly, drawing a large number of local devotees and women who gathered to seek the blessings of the deities. The Mahadevawambe Colony in Rajahmundry holds significant geographical and social importance. In this locality, inhabited predominantly by working-class and ordinary citizens, there is a pressing need to counter religious conversions that exploit the innocence of the people, and to build awareness about their own faith. Believing that our responsibility does not end with just the installation of the idols, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has resolved to transform this Abhaya Anjaneya Swamy temple into a vibrant divine center. Using this temple as a base to unite the residents, we plan to continuously organize mass bhajan programs, satsangs explaining the values of Sanatana Dharma, Bala Samskara Kendras to instill moral values in children, and various other initiatives to awaken religious awareness among the youth. Through these continuous spiritual initiatives, we aim to nurture a deep sense of spirituality in every individual of the colony, effectively counter conversion tactics, and empower them to protect our rich heritage. However, the preservation of Sanatana Dharma can only be achieved through the active participation of the entire society. Looking ahead, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation aspires to undertake temple renovations, idol distributions, and cultural outreach in many more such underserved areas. With the generous financial and moral support of dharma-loving donors, we can successfully execute these crucial programs in many more colonies and villages vulnerable to conversions. We earnestly appeal to donors to become partners in this sacred duty of safeguarding our culture and our roots. https://youtube.com/shorts/3dOu2hf5zrI?si=2LfrBlMrQqw0o37B Donations are appreciated.
