Pseudo secularism: Christian Missions and Hindu Resistance

This book, authored by Sita Ram Goel, published by Voice of India in 1998, comprises two chapters: The Sunshine of ‘Secularism’ and Rift in the Lute. Spanning 120 pages, it critically explores the impact of missionary activities on Bharat’s social and cultural landscape. The author examines the historical roots of Christian missions, beginning with colonial support under the Portuguese and British, and their role in fostering cultural alienation and political manipulation. Key events, such as Nehru’s so called secular policies, the rise of Christianity in the North-East, and the findings of the Niyogi Report—detailing unethical practices like financial inducements and forced conversions—are brought to light. The book highlights the challenges posed by missionary agendas, often aided by constitutional protections and political complicity.

Hindus are marginalized in their own country. High tolerance. Thought-provoking perspectives shared through historical analysis, personal experiences, and references to influential works. A call to action for Hindus to recognize and resist the challenges posed by missionary activities and the flawed secular framework. Understand your enemies. Preserve your Hindu cultural identity. Engaging and eye-opening, it is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the complex interplay of religion and politics in India.
