Hindu Dharma Preaching: Debunking Hate Pastor Steven Anderson's Hinduphobic Youtube Series "Hindu Moment"

Lately Steven Anderson, a Hate-Pastor of the cult Faithful Word Baptist Church based in Temple, Arizona, USA, has been creating videos about Hinduism and publishing them on Youtube.

All of these videos about Hinduism are Hinduphobic in nature and will only cause an increase in hate and hate crimes against Hindus.

Hindu Moment #1 - Definition of Yoga

Published: March 15, 2017 Run time: 4:31

In his first video "Definition of Yoga", Anderson defines Yoga from dictionary.com. To Hindus, Yoga is a spiritual journey whose end goal is Liberation from this world of suffering and attaining eternal Union (Yoga) with the Supreme Spirit.

At 1:10 he makes the claim that the Supreme Spirit of Hinduism is not the God of the Bible, and although that does not mean anything in particular to us Hindus as we do not worship the god of the Bible, what it really means in the context in which he is speaking is that the Supreme Spirit or Paramatma as we know it to be is not the real God.

At 1:17 he makes a mention of a film he made which was supposedly a "documentary" that was later taken down by Youtube due to its hateful Hinduphobic contents. This film he claims, "proved conclusively" that the God we Hindus worship is none other than the Christian Devil himself.

He than tries to wrongfully define Yoga as "seeking to have union with the devil" and labels doing Yoga as demonic.

At 1:42 he quotes a Bible verse that suggests that we Hindus are infidels, worship a demon, and anything Hindu "unclean". Anderson than interprets (2:37) this verse as inferring to not do Yoga and for Christians to not associate themselves with us Hindus.

A 3:22 he calls the Supreme Spirit an unclean spirit and suggests that the Supreme Spirit is not Jesus Christ or the "Holy" Spirit.

At 4:03, Anderson labels the Vedic deities as "false gods" and concludes (4:08) the video by stating that people should abstain from doing Yoga which he suggests is an "appearance of evil" and a "fruitful work of darkness".

In all humbleness, all of Anderson's conclusions and assumptions are plain wrong. No Yoga is not evil. and demonic No Yoga will not lead you in union with a demon. No the Supreme Spirit is not an unclean spirit. No our God is not a demon. And NO we are not Infedils who revere false vedic deities.

All the claims Anderson has made clearly dehumanise Hindus and paints spiritual practices such as Yoga as evil.

Yoga is a spiritual journey, whether you do it just for its physical aspects or for its full spiritual benefits, it truly is a marvelous practice which gives its practitioner a peace of mind.

Ignore everything this hate-pastor has said and don't let his words deter you from practicing Yoga.

May you have a fulfilling spiritual journey.
