Beskrivelse

Christian missionaries from the West have been flocking to India with great hope and try to popularize Christianity in that country. They collect billions of dollars from middleclass and poor Christians of western countries and spend those billions building schools and hospitals and orphanages and Universities in India. They have been doing this for centuries. So far they have not produced any tangible results. India has a small community of Christians (2% of the population) mainly in the southern state of Kerala. Christianity was brought there by St. Thomas, one of the disciples of Jesus, in 52 AD. He baptized and converted three royal families into Christianity. Over the last 2000 years, their children have grown into millions. They form the current he Christian community and it has remained at 2% of the population in spite of intense efforts by Christian missionaries over centuries. They do not understand why all their efforts have failed. To understand why missionary efforts fail in India, one has to understand the culture. This book explains the culture of India or Hinduism for prospective Missionaries.
