farmer, he gives diff statements.....that's why i sadi if gandhi matters t the conference of Missionary Societies of Great Britain and Ireland, on 8-10-1931 in London; missionary Mr. F. B. Meyer asked Gandhiji w hether he had found peace without acknowledging the message of Christ. Gandhiji repli ed in affirmative. "Religion is a personal matter, and I am not going to ask another man to become a Hindu or a Parsi. I would be doing something contra ry to my belief. I am sharing with you my own experience, and trying to show you as fe llow-workers that probably, if you could see eye to eye with me, your work would flour ish more and more. You have amazing self-sacrifice; you are great organizers; y ou are good men. I want to multiply occasions for your service. I want to work closer w ith you, but I do not want you to get India to change her faith." (48:126) 9 "Hinduism with its message of ahimsa is to me most glorious religion in the world — as to me, my wife is the most beautiful woman in the w orld—but others may feel same about their own religion. Cases of real, honest con version are quite possible. If some people for their inward satisfaction and growth cha nge their religion, let them do so." (35:462). * * * During an interview with Gandhiji, which was publis hed in Young India on 21-3-1929, Dr. John Mott asked him - "Do you disbelieve in all conversions?" Gandhiji replied : "I disbelieve in the conversion of one person by an other. My effort should never be to undermine another's faith but to make him a better follower of his own faith. This implies belief in the truth of all religions and th erefore respect for them. It again implies true humility, a recognition of the fact that the d ivine light having been vouchsafed to all religions through an imperfect medium of flesh, the y must share in more or less degree the imperfection of the vehicle." (40:60) |

Lichtenberg:he clealy states he disbelieves in conversion
Bushu:True conversion comes imperceptibly like aroma of rose. Thus, am not against conversion
one thing people fail to understand is that mother teresa is a charity worker, not a "matha pravaktha"....to say that her "top priority" was to convert people is just bullxshit.... |

Bushu: I would certainly like to withdraw. Every nation considers its own faith to be as good as that of any other. Certainly, the great faiths held by the people of India are adequate for her people. India stands in no need of conversion from one faith to another.

>> In an interview to a missionary, on or before 22-3-1935, Gandhiji complained that missionaries were preaching the gospel of Christ with some motive behind it. "One sordid motive violates the whole preaching. It is like drop of poison, which fouls the whole food. Therefore, I should do without any preaching at all. A rose does not need to preach. It simply spreads its fragrance. The fragrance is its own sermon ...The fragrance of religious and spiritual life is much finer and subtler than of the rose." |

>> "Am certainly against the use of hospitals, schools and the like for purposes conversion. It is hardly healthy method and certainly gives rise to bitter resentment, conversion matter of heart and must depend upon silent influence of pure character and conduct of missionaries. True conversion comes imperceptibly like aroma of rose. Thus, am not against conversion as but am certainly against present methods. Conversion must not 16 be reduced to business depending for increase upon pounds, shillings, pence. I also hold that all great religions are of equal merit to respective nations or individuals professing them. India is in no need of conversion of type described. Whilst under swaraj all would be free to exercise their own faiths. Personally, I would wish present methods adopted by missionaries were abandoned even now and that under conviction not compulsion." |
