“Ether, air, fire, water, earth, planets, all creatures, directions, trees and plants, rivers and seas, they are all organs of God’s body. Remembering this a devotee respects all species.” (Srimad Bhagavatam, 2.2.41) World Environment Day (WED) is celebrated annually on 5 June and encourages awareness and action for the protection of the environment. It is supported by many non-governmental organizations, businesses, and government entities, and represents the primary United Nations outreach day supporting the environment.

Art competition has also been organized by Balasamskar Kendras in collaboration with many Government schools on Environment Day. Teachers not only spoke about the importance of the environment but also talked about the Plants and trees' environment in Sanatana Dharma. Lastly, teachers also spoke a few things about the concept of Balasamskar Kendras and the activities of GHHF Assam.

Each year, the program has provided a theme and forum for businesses, non-government organizations, communities, governments, and celebrities to advocate environmental causes.

Fred B Eisenman Jr. "The five fundamentals of Hindu philosophy are: Brahman, the one God, atman, the imperishable spirit, samsara, reincarnation; karma-pala, action and resulting reward and punishment; moksha, uniting with God after the disappearance of desire. These are called the Panch Crada, or "five principles." 1. Bala Samskar Kendras in Kurnool – Students visited Mantralayam Temple to have a Darshan of Sri Raghavendra Swamy. (5/21) Students were taken to Mantralayam where they gad darshan of Raghavendra Swamy. The teacher told them about some of the miracles of Swam.

He ruled the Vedic Samrajya from 1624 to 1671. His 331st Aradhana was celebrated on August 24, when lakhs of devotees thronged Mantralayam and the hundreds of Brindavans in India and abroad. https://www.savetemples.org/post/ghhf-bala-samskar-kendras-in-kurnool-students-visited-mantralayam-temple-to-have-a-darshan-of-sri-raghavendra-swamy/1609 2. Bala Samskar Kendras – learned about a story that teaches about the importance of associating with Trustworthy people. (5/22) There lived a crow and a deer who had been friends since they were young. There was also a fox who craved to eat the plump and healthy deer. "It'll be delicious if I have this deer for lunch. But first and foremost, I must gain trust of the deer,' the cunning fox thought.  The fox returned the next day to the spot where the deer and the crow were having a chat as usual. "Hello, I've seen you a few times and I'd like to be your friend!" he said. "How can you be friends with us!" exclaimed the crow. The fox was quite clever and questioned him, asking, "Why can't a fox be friends with a crow and a deer? Please give me the opportunity to prove myself. I promise to be a nice friend!" https://www.savetemples.org/post/ghhf-bala-samskar-kendras-learned-about-a-story-that-teaches-about-the-importance-of-associating-with-trustworthy-people/1610 3.

Bala Samskar Kendras – Students learned that chanting Sri Rama Rama Ramet Slokam is equal to chanting entire Vishnu Sahasranama  Stotram. (5/24) This sloka has the power of Vishnu Sahasranama. It is said that the mantra was first revealed to Sage Valmiki, the author of the Ramayana, by the sage Narada, who instructed him to meditate on the divine name of Rama.

This timeless Ram mantra has been chanted by devotees for centuries as a means of seeking spiritual enlightenment and connecting with the divine. https://www.savetemples.org/post/ghhf-bala-samskar-kendras-students-learned-that-chanting-sri-rama-rama-ramet-slokam-is-equal-to-chanting-entire-vishnu-sahasranama-stotram/1612 5.

GHHF] Bala Samskar Kendras – learned about the greatness of Chhatrapati Shivaji, his heroism and his association with Sant Ramadas.

Swami Vivekananda said, “Is there a greater hero, a greater saint, a greater bhakta and a greater King than Shivaji? Shivaji was the very embodiment of a born ruler of men as typified in our great epics.” Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is very happy to inform that we have started more than 200 Bala Samskar Kendras (Schools for children and youth) to enrich them with greatness of Hindu Dharma and the appreciate the sacrifices many leaders have done to protect Bharat. There are many kings who have achieved to the new heights in their skills, talents and strength. Unfortunately, Bharath denies its history to their own children and glorified the most undeserving rulers. The government has corrupted the minds of young students since Independence from 1947.  GHHF decided to  teach the real history of our country and present a truthful account of great emperors of Bharat. Our Bala Samskar teachers taught that Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was the founder of the Maratha Empire in western India. He is considered to be one of the greatest warriors of his time and even today, stories of his exploits are narrated as a part of the folklore. With his valor and great administrative skills, Shivaji carved out an enclave from the declining Adilshahi sultanate of Bijapur. It eventually became the genesis of the Maratha Empire. After establishing his rule, Shivaji implemented a competent and progressive administration with the help of a disciplined military and well-established administrative set-up. Shivaji is well-known for his innovative military tactics that centered around non-conventional methods leveraging strategic factors like geography, speed, and surprise to defeat his more powerful enemies.     Shivaji turned out to be a born leader from a very young age. An active outdoorsman, he explored the Sahayadri Mountains surrounding the Shivneri forts and came to know the area like the back of his hands. By the time he was 15, he had accumulated a band of faithful soldiers from the Maval region who later aided in his early conquests.     By 1645, Shivaji acquired control of several strategic from under the Bijapur Sultanate around Pune – Torna from Inayat Khan, Chakan from Firangoji Narsala. Mohammed Adil Shah sent Afzal Khan, a powerful general in his employ to subdue Shivaji. The two met in a private rendezvous on November 10, 1659 to discuss terms of negotiation. Shivaji anticipated it to be a trap and he arrived prepared wearing armor and concealing a metal tiger claw.  When Afzal Khan attacked Shivaji with a dagger, he was saved by his armour and Shivaji retaliated by attacking Afzal Khan with the tiger’s claw, mortally injuring him. He ordered his forces to launch an assault on the leaderless Bijapuri contingents. Victory was easy for Shivaji in the Battle of Pratapgarh, where around 3000 Bijapuri soldiers were killed by the Maratha forces.     Under his reign, the Maratha administration was established where Chhatrapati was the supreme sovereign and a team of eight ministers were appointed to oversee the proper enforcement of various policies. These eight ministers reported directly to Shivaji and were given a lot of power in terms of execution of policies formulated by the King. He appointed eight Ministers with different portfolios to manage the administration.      He was credited with saving the Hindustan from the onslaught of Muslims during that period. Importance of Shivaji cannot be underestimated , not just for India but for the world. Kavi Bhushan was a contemporary . This is what he said about Shivaji; Shivaji na hote subkehote Sunnah.  If Shivaji was not there, everyone would have been circumcised. He declared himself as 'Hindu pada padashahi', a king at the feet of Hindus. Shivaji had a foresight and developed a Naval force in view of new arrivals from Europe. Maratha Navy of Shivaji defeated British navy at the coast of Mumbai.  Shivaji and Sant Ramdas Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was a very faithful devotee of his Guru, Samarth Ramdas swami. So, he was his Guru’s favorite disciple. Samarth used to love him more than the other of his disciples. Seeing this, the other disciples of Samarth started to feel that since Shivaji Maharaj is a king, he is the Guru’s favorite. Samarth decided to remove this misunderstanding of his disciples. So, he once took all his disciples to the forest. In the forest, they lost their way. Samarth went into a cave and pretended that he was having severe pain in the abdomen. The disciples entered the cave and saw that Samarth was groaning with pain. They asked Samarth how they could help. On hearing Samarth’s reply, all the disciples were dumbfounded.     But Shivaji went to the forest and  gathered courage and folded his hands in front of the tigress and said, ‘O Mother, I have not come here to harm either you or your cubs. I need your milk to cure my Guru’s illness. Please let me take it. I shall give it to my Guru and come back to you. Then if you want, you can eat me.’ Saying so he lovingly moved his hands on her back. Then Shivaji milked her and filled the pot. He bowed down to her with gratitude and left the place. Shivaji went back to the cave where Samarth was and keeping the pot in front of him and bowed down to him. Samarth said, “So finally you brought the milk of a tigress! God bless you, Shiva! When there is such a faithful and devoted disciple like you, how can the Guru be in pain for long?” Samarth put his palm on Shivaji’s head and looked at the other disciples.

[GHHF] Taking Care of Cows and other Animals during these Hot Summer Months by providing water – Placing Water Tubs in different locations with our Website name – Savetemples.org. 

“Cow is like the mother of the cosmic Forces, the daughter of the cosmic Matter, the sister of cosmic Energy, the centre of the ambrosia. I address to men of wisdom --kill not her, the sinless inviolate cow.” Rig Veda Global Hindu Heritage is very happy to announce that our volunteers have been making Water TUBS with GHHF logo and savetetemples.org. We have been providing this service for the last three years in various locations. Since 2020, GHHF is providing this service to these animals. The Directive Principles of State Policy contained in Article 48 of the Constitution reads, “The State shall endeavour to organize agriculture and animal husbandry on modern and scientific lines and shall, in particular, take steps for preserving and improving the breeds, and prohibiting the slaughter of cows and calves and other milch and draught cattle.” A number of states have either banned or adopted a restrictive ban on the slaughter of the cows, no mechanism to enforce the Directive. Illegal shipping of cows to cross-country has not been affected. In fact, one can assume, the number of cows and buffalos being shipped is increasing based on the local consumption and export figures. Animals are considered human’s closest friends for a very long time. We are dependent on them for food and security (Habitat). Every animal in the world needs to be taken care by providing them food, shelter and veterinary care. The behavior of most of the domestic animals is mainly observed by how we treat them. If we treat them with good care, love and compassion, they will definitely show the same love and respect towards us. For example, a farmer owns buffaloes, goats, sheep and cows to get milk both for his family and financial purposes, he needs to take care of the animals to come up with his needs and ensure best production rate. What if we imagine the Ecosystem without all animals on the face of the earth? This clearly means we would definitely have to survive in an Ecosystem where the possibilities will be more for us to be easily attacked by a virus. Countries that are dependent on wild animals for fund raising in parks and zoos would be facing problems; many people doing jobs over there would be left jobless, this would automatically leave many people under financial issues since the reason that wild animals were a source of income. Food and water must be provided to each and every animal through any way we think is possible. These animals deserve veterinary care just to ensure that all the animals are in a good state of health. This will not only help animals to survive, but on other hand it will help us to prevent our environment from the diseases in case if they get sick. (Source: medium.com) Cows are Considered Sacred     As we are aware that Cows are given high respect in Hinduism and described in various scriptures describing their importance. Cattle are considered sacred in world religions  - Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, ancient Israel, ancient Rome, and ancient Germany. Cow, as an adobe of 33 crore Deities is considered as sacred in Hinduism, due to its sattvic qualities. Kamadhenu, the miraculous "cow of plenty" and the "mother of cows" in certain versions of the Hindu mythology, is believed to represent the generic sacred cow, regarded as the source of all prosperity. The Trinity - Brahma, Vishṇu and Shiva have narrated the following shloka on Cow: “O Destroyer of sins! You are the mother of all Deities. You are the reason for yajna (sacrificial fire). Among all Tirthas (Holy places), you are the holiest. I pay my obeisance to you. In the past our Sages have conducted Yajna’s for wellbeing of the community, and now scientific research has found that the ritual of burning cow dung and ghee as fuel for these sacred fires, actually purifies the air, and has anti-pollutant and anti-radiation qualities in the environment. Bhagavat Purana states:  Deer, camel, donkey, monkey, rats, creeping animals, birds and flies – one should consider them like one’s own children, and not differentiate between one’s children and these creatures. (7.14.9) He who does not seek to kill, cause pain or tie up living creatures and desires the good of all attains everlasting joy.  — Vishnu Dharma Sutra 51.69 DONATIONS PayPal Method: To donate visit our website: savetemples.org.

[GHHF] Sponsored TWO movie shows enabling about 600 Hindu Girls to watch “The Kerala Story” – to prevent them being trapped, raped and converted by Muslims

"And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the infidels wherever you find them and capture them and beside them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." -Quran, 9:5 Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is very happy to sponsor TWO show enabling Hindu girls to watch the move to find out how Hindu girls are exploited, cheated, manipulated, subjugated, demoralized and enslaved. The Kerala Story will make our Hindu girls to learn first hand how they can be sexually exploited, raped and even killed. How they can be sold to other countries and may not see the day light.  The Qur’an forbids Muslim men to marry “polytheistic” women: “Do not marry idolatresses until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave woman is better than an idolatress, even though she pleases you. And do not give your daughters in marriage to idolaters until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave is better than an idolater, even though he pleases you. These people invite you to the fire, and Allah invites you to the garden, and to forgiveness by his grace, and explains his signs to mankind so that perhaps they will remember.” (Qur’an 2:221).     The Muslims developed a strategy to convert India into an Islamic State. One way reaching that goal is through Love Jiha.  Ever Muslim boy is asked to lie  and pretend that he is a Hindu. He uses Hindu name and  like a Hindu even by sporting Tilak Bindi on his forehead, go to Temple and pretend as if he is doing prayers. They go to all kind of restaurants and spend lavishly on Hindu girl to make her believe that he is in love with her. He is not even supposed to take the Hindu girl to his house until he is married. Once he is married, he will take her home. Then the torturous conversion starts. There is no going back. Day and out they brain wash them to believe in Allah.  In Islam one has to be a  momin, the true believer, is directed to hate Hindus.  The momin is ordained to persecute, convert or kill kaffirs, Hindus, because we do not believe in the god of the momins.  The momin is sanctioned the jihad against Hindus, as the jihadis themselves say so. The Organizer magazine published an article narrating 30 cases where Muslims engaged in Love Jihad by faking their name and using Hindu insignia. It brings stories of thirty such women who have been fooled by Islamists to conversion or are killed or threatened to get killed if they refused to adhere to their demands. Some found victims found the truth about their religious identity in the beginning while others found years after the marriage. The Kerala story tells the story of three girls brainwashed in various ways by Muslims to be used for terrorism. If a girl was too intelligent, she was drugged. They preached to her if she was gullible. If she was too stubborn, they drugged her, had sex with her, and photographed her to blackmail them. Drugs were their mainstay to convince them that their actions were entirely justified. Muslims were compensated handsomely for this with oil money. All this is revealed through her narration, as she gets rescued by the UN forces fighting the ISIS terrorists in the Syria-Turkey-Iran region. The cruel methods and operations of ISIS terrorists and their brutality on the trafficked women turned into sex slaves is shown through short, shocking visuals. Among the other two girls, one ends her life in suicide and the other resolves to become a fighter to expose these criminal Jihadist gangs and approaches the police. Why Hindu Girls are trapped?     Our children are our strength. They are our future. They are going to be our Ambassadors to Hindu Dharma in preserving, protecting, and propagating our ancient civilization. For centuries, we as Hindus failed to transmit the knowledge to our next generations. With no knowledge about our faith and with no pride in the universality and non-violence of Sanatana Dharma, our children as well as adults have become targets for Christians to convert. They have used plethora of deceptive tactics to woo our Hindus to Christianity as we are not able to defend our religion and also not able to question the barbaric nature of the Bible. We have become defenseless and not equipped with no knowledge about our heritage.      Ignorance about the richness of our rich Hindu culture and tradition usually land them in the Muslim trap. Muslims have perfected their conversion tactics; they know how to gauge their level of knowledge and the what kind of tricks they use to manipulate them make them inferior and make them start believing in Islam.      “The Kerala Story” will educate the young Hindu girls as to how they can be trapped, raped, sold, sent to serve ISIS fighters and spread the net that is almost impossible to escape. This movie will teach them the ways of protecting themselves from the wolfs. The more we propagate the movie . better chances we have to protect Hindu girls being trapped in Love Jihad.      The lesson all Hindu have to learn from this movie is that we need to educate our Hindu girls at a very young age. As we all aware that as parents we are not in a position to teach our kinds about the richness of our Sanatana Dharma and compare ours with Christianity and Islam. As Parents, we have failed to talk about the potential dangers of these religions who are committed to convert Hindus at any cost. When it comes the educational institutions, the course curriculum has been revised after India’s Independence to glorify Islam and belittle Hindu Gods, Hindu traditions and customs. Finally, Hindu Temples are focusing on daily Nitya pujas and Homas and not talking about the what is happening in the real world and how Christians and Muslims are exploiting our children by creating hatred among our youth.

[GHHF] Bala Samskar Kendras – Teachers taught about Veera Savarkar, his views on the greatness of Bharat, and his book on Hindutva

Friedrich Maximilian Müeller (1823-1900) "The Upanishads are the.....sources of .....the Vedanta philosophy, a system in which human speculation seems to me to have reached its very acme." "I spend my happiest hours in reading Vedantic books. They are to me like the light of the morning, like the pure air of the mountains - so simple, so true, if once understood."  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to inform that we are conducting about 200 Bala Samskar Kendras in five States in India – Assam, Telangana, Andhra, Karnataka 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 is teaching different things and at the same time they follow the required syllabus to ensue all the students learn things that are common to all the students. It is challenging as the ages of the students varied from one school to another. Who is Veer Savarakar? 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). 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 the vicious propaganda against him and misunderstanding around him that has been created over several decades. This website attempts to bring the life, thought, actions and relevance of Savarkar before 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, Shrikrushna, 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 Shrikrushna. He used to say that both were army-Chiefs and supreme leaders of this country. 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 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 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 feels like admonishing them. Is it misfortune of this country or regress of the literary acumen ? The greatness of India in the eyes of Veer Savarkar According to Savarkar, the proponent of Hindu Mahasabha, was of the opinion that this land has been sanctified with the holy water from the tireless penance of Saints like Vasishta and Namdev. The prose of Maharshi Vyas and Bhagavadgeeta of Shrikrushna are the epitome of literature. Ramayan is the nourishing ksheersagar. Great women like Damayanti, Savitri, Gargi and Seeta were born in this land. Researchers like Kanad, Bhaskar, Aryabhat, Varahamihir; seers like Mahavir, Shankara, Ramanuj, Nanak, Dayanand, Vivekananda became one with the great history of the land. Awareness created by Savarkar keeps large part of area under Hindus rule during partition of Hindustan ! In 1937, Savarkar’s house arrest from Ratnagiri was lifted and he was granted permission to take part in politics; but till then, freedom fight under leadership of Gandhi had moved towards undivided Pakistan, instead of undivided Hindustan. Even in such 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 from history and traditions, moral values and will power. 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-violence principle. In this turmoil, however, some part of this great country slipped creating Pakistan and the rest of the country however, stayed available to Hindus. Savarkar was neither tired nor disheartened. He was busy in convincing the helpless, tired Hindus that with one shock, the newly created Pakistan can 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 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 heart 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!

[GHHF] Bala Samskar Kendras – Students are learning Mrityunjaya Mantra, its importance and Benefits of Chanting.

Sir Monier Monier-Williams (1819-1899)  “He (Rama) is the type of a perfect husband, son, and brother. Sita also rises in character far above Helen and even above Penelope, both in her sublime devotion and loyalty to her husband, and her indomitable patience and endurance under suffering and temptation.....it may be affirmed generally that the whole tone of the Ramayana is certainly above that of the Iliad."  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to inform that we are conducting about 200 Bala Samskar Kendras in five States in India – Assam, Telangana, Andhra, Karnataka 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.

It is challenging as the ages of the students varied from one school to another.     GHHF is very much interested in teaching the importance of chanting different Mantras, slokas and stotras. They are learning about the importance of Mrityunjaya Mantra. What is Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra and its meaning. Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushti Vardhanam Urvarukamiva Bandhanan Mrityor Mukshiya Maamritat “We worship Lord Shiva, the fragrant three-eyed One who nourishes all beings; For the sake of immortality, may He save me from death, just as the cucumber is freed from its creeper’s shackles.” Mahamrityunjay mantra is from the Rig Veda of the Hindu religion and is considered the most powerful shiv mantra. It is also called the Om Tryambakam Mantra. The purpose of this mantra is that it brings immortality, prevents premature death, and protects from difficult situations. Chanting this mantra leads to the elimination of fear, as it calms the soul and makes it strong. Regular chanting of the Mahamrityunjay Mantra leads to the performer feeling safe and secure. It is also believed that reciting the Mahamrityunjay mantra reduces physical ailments and keeps the body healthy. Mantras have a very significant role for every religion and have traveled the time to be used by the most modern people. These mantras bring peace and solace to the devotees and give them comfort. For Hinduism, mantras play a very important role as they are used in every religious ritual for big or small events. The Mahamrityunjay mantra is a very important and powerful mantra for Hindus. This strong mantra is dedicated to lord shiva, and chanting this religiously reduces the fear of illness and death. The existence of the mahamrityunjay mantra was first discovered through the Rig Veda and was brought to mankind by Rishi Markandeya. This mantra is believed to have very special powers which keep the mental health good and maintain emotional and physical balance. Chanting this mantra also grants a form of immortality, which in other words increases lifespan, and decreases the chances of untimely death. Many stories depict the story of the Mahamrityunjay mantra and how it came to be. There is the story of Rishi Markandeya and how he was destined to die at the age of twelve, but fate had other plans for him. There is also the popular tale of how Chandra dev was cursed by king Daksha, and how this mantra was chanted to save his life. Overall benefits of chanting the Mahamrityunjaya mantra •    With the regular chanting of the Mrityunjaya Mantra, one wishes for the protection of their family. This mantra assures them of their good health and their family’s welfare. It provides a healthy mentality and emotional capacity. •    This mantra increases the longevity of life of the performer and reduces their fear of illness and death. It fills their life with happiness and prosperity. •    Along with keeping the mental and emotional health in balance, the Maha Mrityunjay mantra rejuvenates and nurtures the health of the performer, and reduces their stress by eliminating any kind of sickness and bad habits. •    Lord Shiva is known to be the most benevolent god of the Hindu religion, and pleasing him is very easy. One only needs to be completely devoted to him, and perform any ritual or mantra with purity in one heart. •    With the regular chanting of the Maha Mrityunjay Mantra, one gets the blessing of protection for both them and their entire family by lord Shiva himself. They receive protection from all kinds of negative energy and sudden death. (Source: Astrotalk.com) DONATIONS PayPal Method: To donate visit our website: savetemples.org.

These were his last words! On Saturday, 26 February 1966, at around 11 a.m., in the tradition of great Hindu seers, Savarkar breathed his last in Mumbai.

We are grateful to Sri Chandra Mohan, who has taken the full responsibility to identify 116 priest, make necessary arrangements, decorate the hall, plan the seating arrangements, and follow Covid – 19 guidelines. He has done a great job by paying attention to every details. Additional 18 Priests were honored in Vijayawada, Bengaluru and Kochin. On this great Occasion, each priest was honored with Rs 5000. F other wives, each one was given one Sari with Blouse, one Fruit, Turmeric, Kumkum, Beetle leaves with nut powder, two Masks and Rs 11. Main program started at 10:00am and continued till 1:00pm.Because of the fear of spreading Coronavirus, all the Hindu Temples are closed. Now, many Pujaris / Hindu Temple priests are having a hard time meeting their basic needs. Many of them do not have any salaries either from the government or from the private Temples. Most of them do not have enough savings to pay their rent and electricity. Furthermore, many private temples do not have enough income to pay their salaries. Consequently, many Pujaris do not have enough resources to meet their daily expenses to provide meals to their families. Recently, newspapers wrote about some priests begging on the streets as they could not provide meals for the family. That news pained so many people and some organizations are helping them financially. They are facing a grim and grave predicament. It is time to help these Priests to meet their monthly expenses with our generous donation. It is time to acknowledge their invaluable service to Hind Temples and Hindu Dharma. It is time to protect their dignity and self-respect. {{album_57}}

[GHHF] 750 Tribal and Poor Ladies mostly Christians were honored in Visakhapatnam

[GHHF] 750 Tribal and Poor Ladies mostly Christians were honored in Visakhapatnam Global Hindu Heritage Foundation in Collaboration with Sri Saidatta Manasa Peetham honored tribal and poor ladies in Vishakhapatnam area on Sunday (May 24th). Sri Sai Datta Swamiji went to few villages and tribal areas and invited them and explained the procedure. As some of you may be aware that many of them have been converted to Christianity.                GHHF is very much interested in reconverting the Christians into Hindu fold. Many of these people in these villages were converted with some inducement and by deception. Not knowing any thing about our culture and due to their lack of education, they converted to Christianity. Christianity prospers where there is ignorance. Christianity declines where there is high literacy. In  European countries, Christianity is declining and may be about 10 percent may be going to Churches.  Similarly, in USA also the number Christians attending the churches are declining year by year.                  It is our duty to look at the rate of conversion and how deceptively they are converting gullible and innocent Hindus is well documented. Many of the converted Christians have no idea why they are converted and have no clue about what they are talking. The Christian pastors have created so much fear among these people that Satan will haunt them if they go back to their ancestral religion.                Out of 750 ladies who came to function about 600 ladies are Christians. Sri Saidatta Swamy explained that they will be received by applying Tilak on their forehead and will also offer Prasadam for everybody to consume.                All the ladies who came to the ashram were given Kumkum, Turmeric, 5KG Rice, and one Saree. They were all given Prasad before they left. May of them even commented that Christianity does not belong to us. It is foreign. Our culture is ours to follow.                             We are very happy to see so many Christian ladies coming and receiving our Prasadam,  applying Tilak and chanting Jai Sree Ram three times. {{album_54}}
