‘Sanatan Dharma’ means a religion which has no end. That is why it is said that the greatness of Sanatan Dharma is that whoever tries to know or understand it once, becomes its follower. One such news story comes from Raipur, Chhattisgarh, where 350 people who had joined other sects or religions after being misled returned home.
A Sant Prabuddh Jan Sammelan was organised at BT Ground in Raipur, where a prominent religious guru from South India graced the event. During the conference, several saints expressed their concerns over the growing trend of Hindu conversions in both the country and the state. They also discussed measures to address and curb this issue.
On this auspicious occasion, 300 Sadhaks were initiated into the service of Sanatan Dharma. More importantly, in the presence of Swami Ji, about 350 people who had previously converted to other religions underwent ‘Ghar Wapsi’ and re-embraced Sanatan Dharma. The visiting saint from South India imparted the mantra of ‘live and let live,’ encouraging all those present to engage in daily devotion to God with a focused mind and heart.
The Ghar Wapsi event in Raipur comes on the heels of a similar ceremony held earlier this month in Ram Nagar, Kanker district, Chhattisgarh. On November 3, dozens of people from as many as 11 families reverted to Sanatan Dharma in a ceremony organised by the Maa Bhuvneshwari Jan Kalyan Samiti.
This movement also echoes a similar event in Balrampur district of Chhattisgarh on May 17, when hundreds of people from over 50 families embraced Sanatan Dharma during the closing day of Vanvasi Ram Katha and Maha Yajna at Kandari village. The ceremony was led by Acharya Sadanand Ji Maharaj, a revered ‘Kathawachak’ from Vrindavan, who delivered spiritual sermons based on the life of Bhagwan Sri Ram.
These Ghar Wapsi ceremonies underscore the growing movement of spiritual reconnection for those who were misled or forced into conversions. They highlight the inclusive and welcoming nature of Sanatan Dharma, which continues to guide and embrace those seeking a return to their spiritual roots. The recent events in Raipur and other parts of Chhattisgarh are proof of the enduring strength of Sanatan Dharma, which continues to bring individuals back to the fold of their ancestral faith.
