- Why would a brilliant Hindu engineer become an atheist and then choose to follow Christ? What evidence convinced him Christianity is true? What did it cost him to follow Jesus? Check out this recent interview with my new friend Ganesh about his fascinating story.

@Seanmcdowell - thanks for having me on your show. Hope to be of service to someone seeking the truth and is analytical and views life through the eyes of science and logic. - Ganesh
I would hope you would give Sanatana Dharma a DEEPER dive, via the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, etc. Christianity is such a fairytale religion/worldview and was constructed out of the VERY common Mystery Religion Cult ideas, which preceeded Christianity, such as that of Inanna and even Osiris. Even Justin Martyr was aware of the similarities. Christianity is literally just a Jewish version of the VERY common Mystery Cults.
Advaita Vedanta (Nondual Hinduism) is where reality leads the truly earnest, wise, introspective person. I sincerely hope you will dive deeper than the shallow end and find true peace.
Big hug Ganesh ! Long distance UK
I am also from a Hindu ( Brahmin iyengar) family and extremely analytical and curious. I’m glad my family encouraged and nurtured that attribute. I am now a Christ follower by choice and everything about my life has changed since. I have just written and published a book called ‘Champions of Truth’ on my pilgrimage thus far 😊
@@monkkeygawdthe true nature of God was revealed within the teachings and noble character of Jesus.
The resurrected life of Jesus, assured humans of an afterlife in heaven.
@aartiroyan what comforts you comforts you. To each their own. But, your analytical minded research is severely lacking, unless you realize and can explain why Christianity literally presents as the Jewish version of previous fairytales, called Mystery Religions, such as that of Inanna and Osiris, for examples, which were VERY prevalent and well established during the rise of Christianity. The similarities to those dying/rising godmen (and women, in the case of Inanna, for example) are STRIKING and impossible to explain away their obvious influence on the Jesus myth. That alone begs a deep mind to seriously reconsider Christianity's claims. Even the early Church Father Justin Martyr was painfully aware of the similarities and spoke candid of them. In addition, there are ENDLESS reasons to doubt the 4 Gospels, for example (which copied/found inspiration from common myths, Greek literature, and even copied/redacted/expounded upon each other) for glaringly obvious reasons to any earnest and honest researcher, which I won't dive into here. But, if nothing else, I would never believe in the jealous, vengeful, genocidal, bloodthirsty Yaweh character as a viable option for the origin of existence. Yaweh clearly sanctioned chattel slavery (Christians try to say endentured Servitude, etc, but Yaweh CLEARLY sanctions chattel (buying and owning humans as property; to even pass on to next the generation) slavery and had to become human, die for the weekend, in order to sacrifice himself to himself so he could tolerate the human nature he knowingly created. And, a belief in original sin---born evil--- is profoundly absurd and degrading to humankind. Ok, I could go on with examples of why Christianity is ridiculous (if taken literally) for endless hours. But, if your research answers all these type of serious issues (and the countless other obvious problems) then good for you and I wish you the best. But, hopefully you didn't just fall into the common trap of Christianity appealing to your "feelings" and then your intellectual side started picking and choosing ways to keep your feelings happy instead of earnestly pulling at the sincere threads of truth.
The truths found in Advaita Vedanta (nondual Sanatana Dharma, aka Hinduism) are truth teased out of years and years of deep contemplation and ficus of the nature of the self/Self. The Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita and Brahma Sutras, for example, can lead people to unlocking a glimpse into Reality as it really is. Reality is nondual. All that exists is Brahman (the vast), which is literally pure Consciousness. And, this undivided Consciousness dreams this universe into seeming existence. You, me (our egos) are akin to dreams avatars and characters in a dream at night---when you wake, the dream world and characters vanish. This means that at the deepest level, you, me, are God's awareness. We have no autonomous doership. No sin. No good. No free will (which science also mostly recognizes). Once this is realized, a sense of awe, profound peace and love is unlocked with the acceptance that what happens simply happens. What is is. What will be will be. We are rivers destined to return to the ocean. Hinduism (when understood deeply) is infinitely Beautiful.

Thank you so much, Ganesh! It’s an honor to hear your testimony!
In 2004, I was a new speech therapist in an elementary school, not knowing anything about apologetics (formerly).
It was a family from southern India (their sweet daughter was a student of mine) which shared about apologetics with me. They also taught me how many families in India take the name of Christians as their new name. Theirs was Benjamin.
Fast forward to 2013, we were going to church in chapel hill, NC. Our pastor there, Jay Thomas, was also was India. His name was taken from the apostle Thomas. It has been a immense blessing meeting these families! I have learned so much from them…Blessings, brother!

There is religion qouts for brahmim that nobody elsa has.
Just being a Brahmin, you could enjoy almost everything through nepotism.

I think you might enjoy my dad’s story from a Hindu priest family, next in line to the position, how he heard the gospel, how the devil tried to keep him from converting to Christianity, council meetings to condemn him to death, how God rescued him, how he became an evangelist walking through the thick forest to preach and plant churches throughout the state, evangelizing through transworld radio, then becoming a pastor, starting his ministry, translating Bible in our language and printing the first KJV Bible and many more. Fascinating. I’m actually trying to get him to do audio recording of his testimony so I can write a book. He’s nearing his 80 now and still very busy in our Father’s business. I don’t even get to talk to him everyday. And yes we are Indians.
I’d love to hear that testimony. Please capture his testimony before it is too late
Please explain about printing the first KJV Bible. I love the KJV!

Suicide not allowed
1)Nothingness emptiness nigura nirakar(shiva that which is not adi shati _energy ) mahakali _ dark energy
2)Mahakal (time and space vishnu - Viswavyapi )
Entanglement (hari hara - space and time) with
Nataraj (dance of particles and strings and waves)likes his hair perfectly balance float sides at same time lead to whole existence. By performing below 3 gunas.
3)Satva gunas(+ve charge - Quality of vishnu- proton)
Rajo guna (-ve charge - Quality of brahma- electron)
Thamo guna (no charge - Quality of shiv -destroyer of ignorce - neutron)
A)Satva guna (+ ve charge referred as vishnu quality called as protons)_ ___ operator
B)Rajo guna(_ve charge referred as brahma quality due to creation_ called as electron)
Brahma (generator)is devotee of vishnu also comes from vishnu means electron revolves around proton _____generator
C)Thamo guna (no charge particle reffred as maheshwara...both proton and neutron have equal charge like (shiva and vishnu )
(destroy everything's your ignorce- thamo guna)_ _____ destroyer
Ex::::: B) A) c)=:GOD
Ex: Short story : {rajo guna }brahma thought he was supreme , but {Satva guna }vishnu mentioned that I came from me.. ... All of suddenly argument raised on who is supreme...? So they unacknowledged - (one symbol) -which was bigger than them was appeared infront them ( thamo guna ) . the symbol creates signals or waves- that those who find my this starting point and ending point. He is the supreme(vishnu due to honest(nature is Satva guna) said I cant able to find the ending point. Insearch ending point I reailised it's infinity.
brahma lied due to- rajo guna- (-ve charge Quality of electron) said That I found out starting point.
4)❤️ shiva(that nirakar, no guna, appeared as destroyer of ignorce said that vishnu is supreme (means Satva guna is supreme) ,+ ve charge is supreme ,means proton
::::: Remove the brahma ahankar - weared thamo guna - remove his head - mean ignorce.
5)Imbalance between Satva rajo and thamo gunas (+ve charge ,- ve charge , no charge)
Electron proton and neuron imbalance
Lead to
Rudra (mahavipotan , bigbangs,roaring sound)
Energy =shakti transform one form to another (consider as feminine energy of nature)
6) Surydev(sun)
7 horses of surydev (7 colours)
Aswanini devatas (electromagnetic waves from sun)
8) @)Big bang is a loop , it happened before this big bang as well .....
Like kalabhairav giving respect to brahma by wearing his kapalas(heads) after his death
Brahma life span 306-311 trillion human yrs ....
#)Multiverses in bhagavatam(krishna shows 100 of brahmas to current brahma)

Everthing happens within you. You need to thought free to acknowledge the consciousness is source of whole existence! But you are taking information outside which was not in your Experience, believing blindly makes you copycat of that book, you aren't living your life but living or spending your energies on writer(quaran, bible) thought! If You want to Experience your life- let's break all the bookish trash: erect spine, close your eyes, focus on breathe - give universal identification to yourself! Now your Experiences and your invested energies teaches the consciousness-! You aren't bagging or carrying any bookish or foolish people beliefs! You are experiencing your own inner consciousness!
Nobody can beat the Sanathana dharma(eternal truth) - hinduism- knowledge of consciousness by insisting the name of allah, jesus and some other god in extorting or intimidating way.
Sanatana dharma-Whole teaching is about consciousness- consciousness is agnostic, you need to invoke your self as conscious and identify that you are a shiva shakti(means Part of supreme Energy with certain physical boundary limitations) 😂

Listening Ganesh's testimony brought me to my own memory how I questioned who God was and was afraid of death from the age of 8 yrs old. Found freedom and truth when I accepted Christ from being a Buddhist Hinduism Sai Baba follower which was all so confusing and man made. No more afraid of death as I know by accepting Christ I have eternal Life and freedom. Praise God for giving me the analytical mind that lead me to discover who God really is.
Wonderful
Don't miss the big smile when he said he was a brahmin 😅

When Jephthah returned to his home in Mizpah, who should come out to meet him but his daughter, dancing to the sound of timbrels! . . .

That’s amazing to know about Thomas being martyred in India! When my family and I went to Cyprus for holiday, we learned that according to tradition, St Lazarus fled there and he became a bishop of Larnaca, Cyprus. He’s got a tomb there where they built a church on top and we even went to the hometown of Barnabas. I was reminded of the book of Acts❤
He said Mathew was in Lydia.
Sir, respectfully - there is no evidence of Thomas visiting Bharat. The evidence was brought in by the Portuguese who invaded Chennai in 16th century and destroyed the Kapaleeshwarar temple. There is mention of Thomas around 5th or 6th century - which is likely to be Thomas of Caanna and not the twin. Ishwar Sharan's book is a good place to understand this.
There is enough evidence to support that Thomas the disciple was in India. There are places of worship still in existence that he built in Kerala (kodungalloor) , Kanyakumari and Chennai. We lived close to the place he was martyred. There is a church built to commemorate him. Interestingly I a Hindu have spent some days on that mountain he was martyred, contemplating suicide. But the Lord powerfully visited me at my home. I am now a Christian!!

What i like when I watch this conversation is the sincerity and honesty of Ganesh. He really inspired me.
Krishna clearly said....do your work without worrying about the rewards and punishment. And a knowledge hindu knows that there is one god and not that millions as you tend to portray
Exactly my point too. I don’t know why people are going gaga about this whole interview.
He is intelligent and a IIT graduate that’s it. He did nothing to understand Hinduism . He did nothing to understand Geeta . He did nothing to understand vedas Upanishads Ramayan and Mahabharata .

There was a Jewish settlement in Kerala and that was why St Thomas came there. He was able to convert a few families to the new faith. Several Christian families have oral histories dating back to that period.
There is also archeological evidences during his apostholic Journey to India in that time Well known anscient trade Routes with the anscient jews & arabian merchents, the old oral and written Traditions of syro- malabar church of Kerala/India..ect historical documents even mentioned in seccular indian history and Christian Traditions based on st.thomas Apostel of Christ in India Kerala like 7 1/2 churches St.thomas founded in different places in Kerala state and Tamil nadu like Kodungallore, palliur Nieanam..ect ..His resting place Baslicka St. Thomas Mount after his martyrdom in Myllapur now near former Madras, now Chennai..
The "Voice of the Martyrs" Christian group published well researched short books for older children. I bought the series to read aloud as a Christian Elementary&Middle School Librarian. All the series is unique & well written, & I can suggest the book on Thomas is great. (I am a little biased given my maiden name is Thomas.:)

A Rebel's Manifesto and I like to the book since I teach intermediate at our Sunday school it is really helping me to understand them better. God bless you! ❤
Wonderful!

Thoughts provoking!
Fascinating. Thank you both ❤
Sure!
Thanks Maranatha
The last two things he said were so fascinating to me - adding random pieces to code to come up with something complex and the example of the origin of life. WOW !
Welcome brother to Christianity ☦️✝️, from an Indian Christian 🇮🇳
Very good testimony. God bless you brother.
Thank you Lata. Definitely an Indian name 😊. Love it
Thanks to your testimony Ganesh, I like your word that you need a prove not a claim about the truth of Bible and Christianity. May God bless you❤
Thank you Ganesh. Love hearing your story.
Sean, really loving all the videos. So interesting to learn about people and their experiences.
Thanks Paula
Thank you for the idea of testing with the simple piece of code...BRILLIANT IDEA ❤
He looks so calm, and you can see the love he has, a smiling face! God richly bless you, my brother!!! Thank you for sharing this powerful testimony!!!
Thank you both Sean and Ganesh for this wonderful conversation. God bless you and use you more as am blest.
Love from Nagaland, India.
🤣
As a "Hindu->Athiest->Christian" engineer myself, this is good to see. Although I must say stories like this are more common than not. There are thousands of such converts in India. India is obsessed with Engineering :D and God is doing amazing things in this country despite what may be happening around.
Brother Ganesh, wonderful Testimony!
I really enjoyed this. I am seeking for truth and evidence lately - so it's nice to hear from someone with scientific background make sense of all this. Thank you so much for inviting him to speak about his journey.
You might want to hear Christopher Hitchens instead
Loved your testimony Ganesh may God bless u.I’m a Roman Catholic n a senior citizen.Thanks Sean for the video.God bless u too.
I'm praying for you sister that your default path change and you find salvation in only Lord Jesus Christ and accept that he is your personal Lord and savior❤❤
@@joswinnoronha1739Please ❤Do not assume RC don't know Jesus
@@joswinnoronha1739 It is only because of the Roman Catholic Church that we have knowledge of Jesus Christ and Christianity. The Roman Catholic Church is the only Church that was founded by Jesus Christ and has been in place for 2000 years. There would be no Christianity but for it.
@@judyapple3266Christianity was not founded by Jesus. Jesus did not come to create a religion. He came to save us from eternal damnation.
Roman Catholic church follows Jesus’ teachings as well as its own teachings which Jesus didn’t teach.
Roman Catholic adulterated true Christian teachings.
@@judyapple3266Jesus’ church is the people who accepts Him as Savior and Lord - not a particular denomination especially Roman Catholic Church.
Very Interesting!
Thank you both!
Godspeed
Wonderful conversation. 🙏
The most marvelous part of this whole testimony is the Peace, calm & a smile from within the heart i.e. the joy of Christ on Ganesh's face. All Glory to God The Father
Thankyou Ganesh for your testimony praise the lord halleluaih hold on to your faith may the almighty lord bless you to grow spritiually and also in your faith.
Thank You, Sean for your insights!
Wow 😁 i smile to the end, what a blessing, God bless you brother
Great video!
India needs Jesus!
India is FAR better without Jesus. SANATANA DHARMA (Hinduism) is far superior at nudging one's mind closer to reality than Christianity could ever dream of doing. Unless one takes a mystical approach to Christianity instead of literal; then, there is hope.
Indeed. The whole world does!
@@GEEVESOFFICIAL Christianity is intellectually stunting and even dangerous in weak minds. It is philosophically UNSOUND and is merely historical fiction; a fairytale-members only club to make adherents feel a certain way. It's about feelings, not reality. It is not a source of truth, but a superstitious fable, same as all Abrahamic-type religions. Fortunately, as people get more educated, they jump ship on the Abrahamic religions more and more. The only real places Christianity is growing is in 3rd world, mostly uneducated places. And, believe it or not, the Islamic faith will have more adherents than Christianity in the next few decades!
The WHOLE world does!
@GEEVESOFFICIAL so sad. India, with its beautiful, long history of philosophically BRILLIANT insights should never be muddied by Christianity's upside-down, dark fairytale worldview. Such a shame.
Thank you for sharing this. I come from Sri Lanka, a former Hindu now a child of God. 32 yrs ago, the Lord took the scales out of our eyes and such that along with my mother and my son, we accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. Now waiting for the Blessed Hope (Titus 2:13)
Wow Ganesh
This is a big deal … What you have done here 🙏🏼
Such a wonderful interview..Glory to God in the highest ❤
Sir, I love your work. Do you use Canvas for your thumbnails? If not, you should, it’s blessed my channel immensely
God bless him.
Even I was a hindu according to our ancestors belief.
V got converted to Christian due to our ancestors belief . A very bold step they took.
I hope all others do follow this Christian religion.
wonderful testimony Ganesh.May God bless you ❤🎉
*Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) in the Bible:*
And remember what Jesus, son of Mary, had said:
*"O children of Israel, I am indeed a Messenger sent to you by Allah, confirming the Torah which has come before me and giving the good news of a Messenger who shall come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad."*
Qur'an (61:6)
"Ahmad" is the another name of Prophet Muhammad(ﷺ).
*It is also confirmed by history that the sacred name of the Holy Prophet was not only Muhammad but also Ahmad.*
*Arabic literature bears evidence that nobody in Arabia had been named Ahmad before the Holy Prophet, and after him innumerable people have been named Ahmad in the world.*
In Qur'an Allah almighty has informed us what Jesus taught them.
*“I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me.”* (John 16:12-14)

Brother Ganesh, thank you for sharing this wonderful testimony. I know so many people who are very intelligent and intellectual and feel that that is a barrier to knowing Christ. I love how God used your questioning nature and desire for proof to draw you to Him! His love and peace are shining through your visage now. Brother Sean, throughout this entire interview, I was marveling at how respectfully you asked your questions. I love how you framed things by acknowledging that you might not even be asking the question right because of not fully understanding the culture. I think that is very honoring and gives your interviewees the chance to really be the expert about their own lives. That shows a rare humility and curiosity about others that makes for an excellent interview. Well done!
When he said 3 million gods,that tells enough about his knowledge of Hinduism so deserves to b a Christian
😂
May be required a boost is career, find this route
Both Iquran and bibal is like a book for primary class students😂when he have here is full PhD course in spirituality
@@Usersb02Yet you cow worshippers can’t afford toilets 😂
He's referring to the fact that every Hindu family has a god. There's no definite number for this, of course, but it is assuredly in the millions. He's not talking about the deities of Hinduism.
More than carpenter. The first day i read the book of jesus auto autobiography, i was overwhelmed on knowing vastly different teachings and his miracles even forgiving the worst offenders. Holy made his encounter in my dreams and shown his glory. I decided to know more about him through experience, whether he is able to redeem me from hopeless situation and found him as, faithful, loving lord, who came to earth to save the lost generation. I am a disciple of jesus christ who is coming soon to save his children from indignation and condemnation. Thank you GANESH SIR FOR YOUR JOYOUS TESTIMONY.
Thank u Ganesh for ur testimony
Writing from Mysore.. India.. This is truly A Super Story (of a unique and highly gifted child of God) and so inspirational!! Million thanks to you both.. brothers in Christ❤
Ganesh though was born in a Brahmin family but never really read the texts. Since time four Varnas were based on karma, there were no sects based on birth. Science and logic are very much part of sanatan Dharm. Anyways Ganesh has chosen to be Christian by choice, all the best to him. To understand sanatan Dharm one has to read a lot instead of just one simple book so I don't blame people who convert. Any human who finds solace and peace within following any path will eventually reach the creator. EKAM SAT VIPRA BAHUDA VADANTI.

Know your real God. The God who directly speak to you. The God wants you to love your enemy and forgive your enemies
@@user-ju1fm8rn1g You are under the influence of Demons. Seek God and you will find him.
Christ Jesus fulfilled over 200 Old Testiment prophecies. Many New Testiment prophecies are coming together. Like the cashless system! Moreover, Jesus is the gateway unto eternal life and the reason for death is sin. God hates sin because he is holy. The lust for greed and sin will be judged. The Lamb of God died for our sins as an atonement. Leviticus 17:11 Isaiah 53:5 Jesus loves you and wants to save you. He lives.
You don't know how lucky you were to be born as a Hindu.... As a Hindu I'm born free without restrictions and my way of life is my religion ❤. And all those millions of God's as you say is to help you in a particular situation that you're in at that particular time.... I love Hinduism and consider myself lucky.
Are Hindus pagans and devil worshippers?.
Namaste didi 🙏
😅😅😂😂
Million of God's..??wow
@@c.lalnunsangi4952 In hindus 🕉 there are not 330 million god this is mistranslation of koti there are 33 god . And all gods you hear about ( shree krishana, Ram ji , hanuman ji, ganesh ji ).
They all are part of the three suprem diety . Bharma - The creator,Shree Vishnu - The preserver and Shiva - The destroyer (lust and bad thing) .
When the bharma, vishnu and shiva became one
This is called prambharma (The god - no face no body) .
Great and inspiring testimony ! All glory to God !
happy to hear you,that you had come to India for your Dissertation...
*Amazing, I wish he came back to India to minister here*
My own experience is very different. A visit to Hardwar left me in awe when within minutes ( no exaggeration) a priest could locate the register in which visits on previoys occasions when a member of the family visited Hardwar to immerse the ashes of a deceased member. Superb record keeping available instantly in less time than it would take to boot the computer. Ganesh is obviously ignorant of the vast knownledge and methodical ledger keeping of generations of our ancestors.
Thank Bro. Sean for the interview and Bro. Ganesh, thank you for sharing your journey of faith. Deuteronomy 29:29 says that there are certain things God has kept it secret and has not revealed it to us. Also, when we come into the family of Christ, every type of caste is removed. We become one as His heirs to the kingdom. We come to HIM with childlike faith. May God continue to bless you and the work that you do towards the Kingdom of God. God bless you.
As a Hindu, i am happy that ganesh found happiness, any religion as long as happy!
