I am a Hindu. Can I still explore Jesus from Indian culture/context?
Yeshu Satsang Dallas (Jesus Truth-Gathering) In Hindi, Yeshu means “Jesus” and Satsang means “gathering of the truth.”At Dallas Indian Community Hindu (Desi) Purpose Group, through small study and discussions and testimonies, we explore the purpose and meaning of life from the Bible. A greatest story of all time, to everyone, everywhere, in every language, surpassing all regional and cultural boundaries of this world.
Historical evidences indicate Yeshu (Jesus) is very unique and according to Time magazine, Yeshu (Jesus) is most influential figure in the history of mankind. In Islam, Jesus (Isa) is the most mentioned person in the Quran by reference. Quran mentions Jesus (Isa) pure birth by Maryam (Mary), Jesus (Isa) performing many miracles including casting out demons, etc. Baha’is believe Jesus is who He says He is.
According to Hindu scriptures, the three gates to self destruction are: desire, anger and lust (Gita 16:21). God alone liberates, offers refuge, peace, and the supreme bridge from death to immortality..(Upanishad 6:18-19). Having acquired human body if we do not attain oneness with God in this life, it is suffering with endless cycle of birth and death - Kupanishad 2,3,4 (6,4). Yeshu (Jesus) taught permanent moksha (salvation) & oneness with God is possible only by having an intimate relationship with creator (seek God first, everything else will be added to you), receive creator's instant forgiveness, accept fully paid (पूर्ण भुगतान) free Gift, turn around and begin a new abundant life (Naya Jeevan).
As Gospels write, crowds were amazed at Yeshu - Jesus teachings and His supernatural power over sickness, spiritual forces, nature & death itself. His words were good news to many and Jesus loved the outcasts (women, the poor, the unclean, oppressors, racial enemies, etc.), tearing down the walls of division, reset the boundaries, restoring dignity and value to those on the margins. Yeshu (Jesus) was close to the broken hearted and often rescued those crushed in the spirit offering a new life. Yeshu (Jesus) was motivated by full of compassion & love and calls us to follow the same.
Yeshu (Jesus ) and His bhakta's (followers) have left an indelible mark in the history, and continue to profoundly impact cultures and societies across the globe. Yeshu (Jesus) words, actions, and clear teachings, all inclusive both Jewish and gentile (non-Jewish) audience, and its obvious Jesus undertook a mission for all mankind. The values of our modern world are universally upheld have not risen by accident, but are the fruit of the transforming power of the good news of Yeshu (Jesus) originated from the life and teachings of Yeshu (Jesus).
Yeshu (Jesus) meeting people at the point of their big, unspoken questions like Who are we, and why are we here? Why be a good person; why love instead of hate? What’s wrong with the world—if anything, can make it right? anything beyond life? When people encounter Yeshu (Jesus), it's a game changer in their life. But how exactly can we encounter Jesus - The Prince of Peace and The King of Hearts? How can we get a victory and find a everlasting joy in this fallen world?
You are invited to join, if you already know or seek to explore more about Lord Jesus (Yeshu Masih). We will meet for two hours (approx incl food fellowship) once a month on 2nd Sunday evenings. We will use "Yeshu (Jesus): The Guru" (Book of Matthew) to guide our discussions. This book is available for a small donation, if you like owning a copy.
