Introduction:
Something incredible happens since quite some time: Tigers claim with a lot of media and ‘academic’ support that deer are eating up tigers. And the deer only say, “No, it’s not true” but do not give proof that they are vegetarians while tigers killed and ate already millions of deer.
The attacks on Hindus are unrelenting. Now even a British MP tweeted about a “Hindu terrorist” when there cannot be terrorism in the name of Hindu Dharma, because it is never dharmic to kill or injure at random innocent people.
The narrative goes like this: only certain deer are dangerous (Hindutva), others are not (Hinduism). Those deer who accept and respect that tigers will eat them are okay, but those deer who raise alarm and object to being eaten up, are dangerous terrorists.
Is it not time for Hindus to put facts on the table in international forums regarding the doctrine of religions?
Show to the world the teeth of a tiger and the teeth of a deer. In other words, point to the objectionable, divisive aspect of the predator religions, and then show them Hindu Dharma which is based on the most profound, benign and all-inclusive philosophy.
The claim “the Almighty has sanctioned only our religion as true and those who don’t accept this, are sinful creatures who will be thrown into hell” is the root cause for the hate crimes against Hindus not only in Pakistan and Bangladesh but also in Bharat and even in US.
Muslims and Christians keep frequently petitioning the United Nations and are heard.
Yet inexplicably, Hindus, who are the majority in Bharat, have so far not internationally exposed the intrinsic hatred for them contained in the official doctrines of those two religions and suffer silently the great injustice, daily humiliation and violence meted out to them.
To condemn killings and rapes which happen so frequently, is not enough.
The root cause needs to be eradicated.
I drafted this petition which is open to being improved.
Would any Hindu representative or group take it forward?
Draft for a Petition to the United Nations (or International Court of Justice?)
This is an appeal to the United Nations to declare the abuse of Hindus by Christianity and Islam as “idol-worshippers”, “Heathens” and “Kafirs”, who are damned for all eternity to hell, as an unacceptable violation of human dignity and equality.
Each of the two religions claims that the ‘true’ Creator of the universe, whom Christians call God, and Muslims call Allah, wants all to follow only what He revealed through Jesus Christ, respectively to Prophet Mohammed, and that He will discard all those, who do not heed his command and who worship ‘false Gods”, into hell.
This is the root cause why in the name of Christianity and Islam, millions were killed, forcefully converted and temples destroyed.
All over the world ancient cultures were destroyed and replaced by these two religions and humanity suffered greatly over the last 1700 years. While the holocaust of the natives in South America and the holocaust of the Jews are well known, the holocaust of Hindus by Muslims is little known. Estimates speak of 80 million Hindus mercilessly killed because they were Hindus.
India is the last vibrant ancient culture, which is still alive, though greatly diminished. It has contributed maximum to human civilization in all fields, which is well documented, yet mostly hidden from the public.
The insight that One Consciousness (Brahman) is pervading everything in this universe was also discovered in India. Without any understanding of Indian philosophy, Christian and Muslim clergy falsely demean Hindu Gods as demons and Hindus as idol worshippers, what they declare as a grave sin.
Christianity and Islam consider it their ‘divine duty’ to make Hindu culture also extinct, and both work towards it using threat, deceit, allurement and violence. For example, in 1990, Hindus in the Kashmir valley were threatened by Muslims to convert, leave or get killed. Many were killed and 400.000 fled.
Christianity may not kill any longer, but it does its best to uproot cultural identities and to divide society. The Joshua project for example is a systematic and aggressive agenda to map Hindus all over India and convert them in big numbers.
The unrelenting vilification of Hindutva (Hindu-ness) as promoting terror against Muslims and Christians, supported by the leftist media, puts Hindus in great danger. Hate speech precedes hate crimes and can lead to genocide. It needs to be stopped urgently.
Every human being is free to worship the Supreme in whatever way he/ she wants and by whatever name he/she wants to call it. This is guaranteed in the right to religious freedom. But there is a condition: the religious belief must be worthy of respect in a democratic society and must not infringe on the rights and freedoms of other people.
The irresponsible, baseless claim that God/ Allah hates the “idol-worshipping Hindus”, is definitely not worthy of respect, endangers public safety and breeds hatred for Hindus.
We request all right thinking people to support this appeal to outlaw this hate promoting aspect of the doctrines of Christianity and Islam.
Especially the indoctrination of Christian and Muslim children to look down and even hate Hindus for allegedly “worshipping false gods”, must stop in the interest of humanity.

100% support the reasoning and cause. We cannot remain silent and let the rogue elements take over the world. If Hindus are defeated, it will be a colossal loss to humanity and even its survival will be endangered if history is anything to go by. Abrahamic religions killed hundreds of millions all over the world since their inception. Now in the era of nuclear and biological weapons, they will wipe out humanity if they remain unopposed. We must take initiative for the sake of humanity and future generations.
Please share. Twitter and Google restrict my reach
Actually followers of one religion wants to by hook or crook expand their religion all over the world while the other wants to wipe out all others who dont follow theirs whereas those who dont believe existance of any God are kafir. Unfortunately the learned there prefer to remain silent. Hindus hopefully believe that at appropriate time He would appear & protect one & all
“Hindus hopefully believe that at an appropriate time He would appear & protect one & all”
This one sentence sums up why everything went wrong for Hindus in history. They still believe in magic and never learn from history. They themselves do not want to do anything and want everything bottle-fed. Of course, even if 80 million Hindus were slaughtered (estimate by Will Durand – Lessons of history) that appropriate time never came and will never come even if all are wiped out. With this kind of culture is it any wonder there are 57 Islamic countries and 135 or so Christian countries and Hindus are threatened even in the land of their birth? With their epic inaction, they left the field open to the barbarians. And their ‘HE’ never thought there is any appropriate time and never appeared. I think Hindus got what they actually deserved. With this mentality, it would have been a surprise if they did not have the history that they had.
Maria, I share your sentiment and support the cause but petitioning the UN is like petitioning a lion – they also eat deers.
It is good draft
Your draft is very good and I do agree with the points. But I am of the opinion that the first point to be brought to the notice internationally is that, this, what they term as “Hindu Religion” is not a religion at all. It is SanAthana Dharmma. DhaRmma is not Religion and in fact there is a vast difference between the two. And the name “Hindu” originated referring to Sindhu River first and then erroneously for people of India. It happened because some foreigners could not pronounce Sindhu and so they pronounced it “Hindu.” That name was given to Sindhu River. Then to the people where that river flowed. Then it was changed to the people of whole of India. Then to the people who did not accept the semitic religions. That shows that for the relegations of DhaRmma into religion was a huge down grading, and an insult. And in comparison to the Semitic Religions only they termed it a religion and named it “Hindu Religion.” To me it looks like an intentional insult. In short the name “Hindu religion” in itself is a derogatory term, the same way the term Hindutwa has been labeled now. It is mainly so because negating DhaRmma into Religion is very much derogatory.
So, in my point of view, your petition should ask to rename Hindu Religion as SanAthana Dharmma, and never refer it as a religion.
Sanatana Dharma is so vast n varied that unfortunately no one body represents it !! So, it’s free for all when anyone wanting to attack, vilify, demean n destroy it !!!!
The preachers n proponents of Abrahamic religions feel threatened by the tenets of the Sanatan Dharma as it is all embracing, open, voluntary n a profound philosophy !! The corporate culture of the Abrahamic religions won’t last long due to their narrow n mean interpretation of Dharma or religion (in their terms). Hence, they r on war footing mission to convert the gullible Hindus by dividing them on caste basis !!
Tk u for standing by the weakers of the society
The objective of appeal mention – “an unacceptable violation of human dignity and equality.”
I did not read any evidence or examples to explain how the violation happened or how the inappropriateness to equality was translated by us. To be precise, it would be good to show what is unacceptable in current context of world affairs.
Please allow me to quote the meaning of –> dignity noun [ U ] us / ˈdɪɡ·nɪ·t̬i / the quality of a person that makes him or her deserving of respect, sometimes shown in behavior or appearance:
As per online webster dictionary –> The meaning of EQUALITY is the quality or state of being equal : the quality or state of having the same rights, social status, etc.
It is essential to know – none can fix past, we can only fix present/future [to the fact that, it is not too late]. UN normally consider a response in a dignified way with respect for all. In this case, the action can be to secure a dignified response from UN.
Going with meaning/s above[apologies English is my second language so had to refer dictionaries], – i would recommend an argument around the claims above to be made more perceptive. If attempt is serious to make UN consider a genuine appeal, a determined effort to provide each grievance aspect can be looked into with an ‘eye for detail’ in order to explain the grievance with explicit examples from the current world affairs context. I believe this should help UN take appropriate action effectively.
Thanks for opportunity and considering my review.
Apart from Christian and Islam there are some Hindus who don’t do anything for their religion and culture .
Even they don’t follow .
It is great initiative !
Namaste Maria! Thanks for taking up this cause. The draft is very good. However, from my perspective there is no difference between Hindutva and Hinduism. Hindutva is the Hindi synonym for Hinduism. People with ulterior motives have started to differentiate the two terms and many unsuspecting people are buying into it.
Ma’am this article can make history if all the Xtians and Muslims are forbidden to call Hindus names and deam them.
. these Hindutva fanatics say they only need 100 strong Hindus to kill at least 2 millionthis might come as a surprise to some, but India’s Muslims are not surprised – the #BJPRSS death cult is now mainstream in India #ArrestHaridwarGenocideMongers – https://t.co/wX1RfV52Kw Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android
Very good draft. Full support. Thank You.
Well saaki. World, are you listening?
Very well written petition. Even the introduction by giving an analogy of tigers & deers is very thoughtful & apt.& clearly defined the problem, the solution of which is being sought by UN intervention.
I fully support this petition.
Exactly, since the Hindus are divided so everybody means jihadi, leftists, congressis and all the terrorists took the Hindus granted for abusing the Hindus.
A much needed voice & need of hour, happy to support the cause!
Very well written. Thank you for your selfless service for Dharma.
I strongly support this draft resolution !! We have accepted this nonsense for far too long !! It’s time to catch the bull by its horns. It’s time to questions this hegemonic religions who think that they have the right over God and the way He (there is no She as far as they are concerned!) is worshipped !!
I request some Hindu organisations like VHP, ISKON etc take it up. Or even the Govt of India itself can take it up.
I fully support this.
Agreed
Fully Agree !
The Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas were written nearly 5000 years ago. The Shreemad-Bhagwad-Gita which is one of the holy scripture teaches about Dharma and how to live our lives. It is more like a way of life. It does not say about practicing Hinduism like what to wear, how to pray or how to practice religion. In fact, Hinduism never shown hatredness towards any religion and part of the world. Rig Veda suggests : Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam meaning….the world is a family. The real greatness of Hinduism is that ….it has room left for everyone. It is a profoundly tolerant religion. It denies no other faith and embraces everything and everyone……
Issue well raised. Hundred percent support to your incredible effort. I am really grateful to you.
Excellent. Hope one of the organisations takes it forward.
Hinduphobia from abrahamics and Christian conversion mafia should be stopped
Stop eliminating Hindus.
The Vedic Religion is more than 10000 year old consist of Spirituality , Yoga , Science , philosophy, Ayurveda, Culture, love, meditation & traditions must be recognised as Holy Religion & practicing Hindus are peaceful over decades. The Hate by Muslim & Christan are political to dominate & destroy the demography of Hindus. Hence UN must take the note & stop the Hate speech at different level by the Muslim & Christians. The world will be at huge loss of Hindus are Wiped out. Please save Hindu & World.
Genuine human rights aspect to be brought out to UN platform, as well as to all National assemblies to adopt a higher level of human consciousness and faith that God is all pervading in the whole creation and none is allowed to kill or disrespect others in the name of religion or faith.
Yes, this is needed indeed, in most of the islamic Nations peoples teaching their students hate against other religions thats why only muslums become terrorist they kill peoples without thinking once, they destroy other monuments and always interrupt other, thats why peace cannot be establish due to this kind of hatred against other religions, we all are same human in same planet we need to respect each others.
Ya well those abrahamic religions won’t change for ever that’s a fact so hindus I urge you to stand strong because ancient religion like Norse mythology or Egyptian mythology every thing was wiped out by Islam and Christianity only we survived and they hate us to their last cell that we survived so they wont stop this anytime soon
Very true, I support your initiative
Can anyone describe the situation better?
Thanks Ms.Maria, for showing the foresight to bring this to the notice of the world via this Petition.
We(Hindus) never hurt anyone in the name of religion. Thank you very much for bringing the truth infront of international forum.
True. I support what you say.
Terrorism has no religion is a myth. The entire world knows Islam is used for terrorism. Christianity ans Islam are Abhramic religions and together are targeting Hinduism.
The best defense is an offense. Take the battle to the home ground of Islam and Christianity. Also, counter their every fake narrative with facts and figures, and evidence. At the same time, show them the mirror, their flaws, their horrible history, etc. I am sure most of the members of the young generation are not aware of their real history and how blood-soaked their religion is.
You do not hurt others in the name of religion does not mean others will show you the same courtesies. In fact, it will encourage them to abuse you even more because they are sure you won’t retaliate and expose them. It is fair game for them to sit on a safe scaffolding mounted high on the tree and hunt. Even if they miss, they are safe. Better treat others the same way they treat you.
Su Shri Maria Wirth , it’s a much needed initiative, and hindu community should support this aggressively, to expose the global Hinduphobia propagated by political-religious fanatics.
As i concerned hindu , i express my deep gratitude to your relentless efforts in love of the eternal Hindu dharma!
Absolutely true! Support this 100%
I agree with the sentiment, but even assuming the UN’s effectiveness for the sake of argument, it is a strategic error to combine Christianity and Islam in one petition– despite similar Abrahamic dogma, only Muslims kill the “infidels” today. Christian Inquisition is in the past’; proselytizing propaganda can be countered by non-UN means.
Other than Hindus, Jews and Christians are persecuted by Muslims in some parts of Africa. Although you are much more experienced than I on this topic, might I humbly suggest that the petition be reworded in a manner that gives it a chance of garnering support from more nations. I suggest taking Islam and Christianity separately.
What do you realistically hope to achieve from this petition? Will it sway even a single dogmatic mind?
Yes, this separation was suggested and a group went ahead and petitioned already the UN regarding terrorism and women treatment in Islam.
I felt it’s the wrong way because the “exclusivity clause” of the religion is our problem and needs at least to be voiced out loud. (I don’t expect much from UN, but at least to voice our reasonable concerns officially).
Judaism has a strong exclusivity dogma, too, (it’s the mother as it were) and it is also harming us in the form of media, movies, deep state, financial system, where Jews are dominating. We usually think we are in the same boat as victims, but it may be more complex. Look at their presence in top positions in US. Indians probably see them as white as they avoid to show their influence and wealth.
