PREACH RELIGIOUS HARMONY IN PAKISTAN

PREACH RELIGIOUS HARMONY IN PAKISTAN 

Ramakrishna Mission says that all religions are true. When will they again open a centre in Pakistan where they were forced to come away from in 1948 after repeated vandalisation of their Karachi centre post-Partition? That is the best place to preach religious harmony where harmony is least evident. Pakistan must not be neglected in light of the fact that it needs spiritual enlightenment above all the nations of the world. Moreover, the Ramakrishna Mission monks with their massive spiritual attainments alone can tackle the troubled terrain and enlighten people.

Hindus and Sikhs are horribly persecuted in Pakistan (the Pure Land) along with Christians, Ahmediyas (who are not deemed Muslims by the Sunni ruling class there) and other minorities and liberal secularists. Blasphemy charges are regularly levelled against all and sundry in Pakistan. All such persecution is the result of the misconception that the Islamic (Sunni) state of Pakistan has regarding the interpretation of the peaceful, all-loving, all-embracing Islamic scriptures. Ramakrishna Mission must interpret the real liberal content of core Islamic scriptures there in the heart of Pakistan and usher in a golden age for all.

We eagerly await the reopening of the Karachi Ramakrishna Mission centre which had to be shut down in 1948, and many more centres in important ancient Sanatan sites such as Lahore etc. Swamiji had delivered three significant lectures in Lahore in commemoration of which Ramakrishna Mission must set up a grand centre there. 🕉
