Conversion by Baha’is are sure short way of destroying the secular fabric of this great Nation. Of late the ways in which these Baha’i organizations are deceiving the people are getting dangerous. Baha’is nowadays is attempting to convert Hindus through combination of these different means. These conversion tactics are being carried out in Baha’i owned schools and the non Baha’i teachers are supposed to learn these techniques called as RUHI STUDY CIRCLE otherwise their services will be terminated. Once the teachers learn these techniques from NETTC (New Era Teachers Training Institute) at panchgani they are supposed to carry these conversion techniques with the students and parents. There is no escape neither for the children nor the parents and neither for teachers.
The Parents send their children to these schools to learn better English which itself is a misconception these schools only implant alien or Baha’i thoughts in the minds of naïve children. What these parents don’t realize is that their children will lose their family values and Patriotism and above all their unique Hindu culture.
It is very surprising that the Human Resource and Education Ministry is not being careful of this gross injustice to the school children and still they are supporting these Baha’i owned school with their monetary support in the name of secularism.
In the Ruhi Book 2 the teachers are being told to teach the Station of Abdul Baha and stress upon their Baha’i Identity.
• Help the participants to learn by heart the content of 11 themes for presenting Baha’i beliefs in a conversation (including the theme on the station of Abdu’l-Baha) from Unit 3 of Book 2;
In Studying the Ruhi Book 3 the teachers are to stress upon the Baha’i Identity of the students which means saying Baha’i prayers, Baha’i greetings and believing that Bab, Bahaullah and Abdul Baha are their ancestors.
• Ensure that the participants gain appreciation of the concept of the “Greatness of this Day” and became conscious of their purpose and their Baha’i identity and that the heroes of the Faith are our ancestors;
• Create opportunities for each participant to retell the stories of the lives of the Bab and Baha’u’llah several times beginning with one or two paragraphs until they are able to tell the whole story.
• Accompany each participant in visiting several homes of inactive believers for sharing with them about the lives of the Bab and Baha’u’llah using the illustrations;
Then these students who have learnt about the History of the Baha’i Faith which includes the life of Bab, Bahaullah and Abdul Baha are supposed to teach to others. Visit their relatives, friends and neighbors and give them the Baha’i Teaching. The students are forced to memorize quotation from Baha’i sacred Book Kitab Iqan and Kitab Aqdas to get a good grade in their exams.
• Help the participants to make a plan for regular visits to the homes of seekers and believers in order to share about the history of the Faith;
• Help the participants to memorize the quotations in Book 4 from the Kitab-i-Iqan and the Kitab-i-Aqdas.
While tutoring the Ruhi Book 7 the students of the school are asked to make their individual plan for teaching (Propagating) The Baha’i Faith which is considered as their class curriculum.
• Help the participants to make their individual plans for teaching;
• Help the participants to execute their individual plans for teaching;
The students and the teachers are also brainwashed that if there is opposition from the majority community of the police or the villages then face it as it is an act of service.!!!! Height of Hypocrisy.
