Hindu Dharma (Hinduism) has always welcomed people of diverse

backgrounds into its fold. With its varying paths and search for the

Ultimate Truth, Hinduism is well suited to great diversity, and

offers individual freedom of consciousness, as well as feeling part

of a wider and collective whole. Unfortunately, due to many years of

less enlightened political and social domination, Hindus have become

inflexible and dogmatic in their approach, tribalistic in nature.

This is not in keeping with Hindu tradition. To rectify this, Vedic

Outreach encourages and welcomes seekers of Truth into the Hindu

family(west and east), by undertaking the following Eleven Point

Programme:

 

 

(1) Official and recognised conversion (shuddi) to Hinduism by

auspicious rites. (2) Explaining Hinduism to all open minded

individuals. (3) Full membership of the Hindu community without

distinction of ethnicity, gender, creed (panth) or age. (4)

Adoption of Vedic name if so desired. (5) Assistance to neo-Hindus to

be familiar with Vedic traditions. (6) Encouragement of neo-Hindus

to partake in the full affairs of their community. (7) Encouragement

of neo-Hindus to take the torch of Vedic knowledge to the wider

community. (8) Assistance to neo-Hindus against prejudice by others,

including from dogmatic and regressive elements among Hindus. (9)

Reform of the existing defunct state of Hinduism. (10) Bringing works

and translations of Hindu literature into the relevant vernaculars to

facilitate Vedic Outreach activity. (11) Raising awareness and

knowledge of Hindu history (politics and true history)

 

 

For too long Hindus have been the human fodder of aggressive

exclusivist doctrines which have no place in a rational and

humanistic world. It is time for Hindus themselves to lose their

narrow mindedness and bring the light of Hinduism to those who are in

sore need of it. For the seeker who has an open mind, Hindu Dharma

can answer all their questions
