- This is the second part of our incredible & in-depth look at the origins of India and how it gave birth to new age practices like Yoga and Transcendental meditation that are now normalized in the western world.
Our guest Daniel Stephen Courney draws from his extensive experience as someone who's spent over a decade as a missionary to Nepal & some of the most spiritually dark areas of the world.

Are Hindus and Muslims allowed to preach their religion inside church? Vatican City? Why Christians bothering others in their holy places?
I can’t believe that clip of the guru. That was shocking. I had no idea. This speaker is right on target in his comparison of kundalini spirit infiltrating the church. It is frightening. This was an excellent presentation .
I believe some Christians are always focused on other religious people.
So true so true! Mostly in chrasmatic
Churches.
True, I believe we can also compare the description of cognitive dissonance to the charismatics denying reality in sickness, finances, etc.
Listening to this and thought of something really odd. The first time I ever visited a Pentecostal church was the first time I ever experienced anyone speaking in tongues or rolling around on the floor. I had a strange spiritual experience myself that was pretty different for me and I wasn’t sure what to do with it. That night, I prayed before bed and went to sleep and dreamed about being in the Pentecostal church again but the pastor was holding up cards with Hindu gods on them and was slaying people in the spirit. The dream freaked me out so bad and I never went back there again. JUST NOW listening to him draw the connections of the shacti pot (idk how to spell that sorry!) and the strange tongues between the hyper Charismatic Movement and Hinduism is crazy. I never knew they were remotely similar. Reminded me of that experience I had and the weird dream that followed.
@@NewLifeFromTheWayofTruth I definitely believe you. That's some crazy stuff.
Good for you! You are growing & your spirit is discerning - remembering the fruit of the spirit is self control & NOT out of control, chaos.. for He has also told us, He Is a God of order. Blessings to you & to yours. Keep fighting the good fight! ❤
The tongues in the Book of Acts were actual languages. Not rolling along the floor and foaming at the mouth.
This guy is knowledgeable man. Just putting together our post modern western world with eastern religion and influence was incredible 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤯🤯🤯
Why care about other people’s beliefs? Can’t we just focus on our own faith?
Excellent episode! And hearing his children in the background was precious. Praying for the safety of him and his family.
I waa watching thie while my kids napped and kept thinking his kids were mine lol
Very enlightening episode😂….poor choice of words I know. Extremely well done and awesome guest. My atheist friend really needs to see this and I pray he’ll actually watch it when I send it to him. New age is becoming a more common practice among younger people all the time. It definitely is a narrcissistic belief and God offers grace to the humble and opposes the proud. God bless you guys, and thankyou.
Thankful for this video channel and this man and his ministry 🙏
Thank you again to Brother Daniel. Praise God! God bless you!!!! I will be praying for you and your family.
Thank you Jesus Christ for saving me from this world of Death. He is so good.
Thank you for this. It's encouraging to know the gospel is going out to such a dark & hopeless part of the world!
This is such a good series!
I have been on drugs for almost 10 years, the more I listen ot this man the more I understand what was I doing. Now I am free and with God. Yet I am confused because I am part of charismatic church and we don't do the things that were mentioned in the video
Yes ppl tend to place hyper charismatics with just charismatics. Sad but true! Btw Paul said he often spoke in tongues when praying by himself so why would he do that if it were just a foreign language?
Assyrians,( I'm one. Sorry for my ancestors), became Christians in the first century AD. at some point our missionaries went to India. I'm not sure, but 8th century? Maybe? We had an Indian priest that traveled back to Assyrian communities in Persia when I was a kid. To my SHOCK, he spoke Aramaic, our language.
Do you still see these converted Indian communities in kerala? Our records indicate kerala as the region my forefathers went to.
I can tell you why I was attracted to hare Krishna. 1. The person who was here actually knew his scripture and was able to answer my questions vs all the Christians in my life couldn't. 2. Being reborn bc I use to say what kind of God would damn you forever for messing up in 1 life that is just a blink to God. 3. Yes they try to make it compatible with Christianity they will say Jesus was a messenger from God but he was just for certain ppl. That Christianity is like Addition and hare Krishna is like calculus. Even during Christmas they put up a pic of Jesus and give him honor. It wasn't until there was a falling out with the group that I said, well maybe in this life I'm not meant to be a hare Krishna if Jesus is also a messenger ill just focus on his message and advance in another life. Then as I read the Bible and started to understand the questions no one could answer I saw that hare Krishna were lying. If Jesus was a messenger from thr same God then why did he contradict what hare Krishna said. Now I've made it my job to know thr answers to the hard questions so when my kids ask me I have a biblical answer so they don't go through the same path I did.
Hinduism is very seductive, but it wasn't until I realized that these gods are just demons and even blackmagic is done with them that I came to Jesus. Either way it does not matter, idols and heathen gods are not the true God.
No offence but 99% of time it’s always white people who are influenced by these kind of beliefs.
@@blackinpublic4193 What? What does color have to do with anything? What color are Indian people the very people who make up Hinduism? What about African people who practice spirit worship? What exactly are you even getting at?
I dont think you understand vedic philosophy or even why hare krishna is chanted
Thanks for getting the truth out there.
I'm very serious about my Christianity.
I cannot possibly abide by the implication cannabis itself is purely of the occult. I would go step further but for the sake of civility I will happily put my position there.
I'm a freaking hemp farmer so I would LOVE to talk about that and actually reason the issue.
Christ is King
Thank you brothers for the work you do. Praise the Lord God who is the only way, truth, and light. Believe the Gospel of Christ!
Being an Indian myself, i do not accept all his interpretations about various hindu practices and words etc, yet this was very interesting to watch. Especially that part on god MSG😂 We do have all kind of weirdos here, what to do!
Sharing both of these videos on my blog… thank you so much!
I laughed so hard at the trailer I had tears streaming down my face 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so very much👍!
I would recommend doing Indiana Jones on Vatican and rescue starving people...
These videos are incredible. Greetings from Gilbert AZ
That move trailer was hilarious.
Why is it different for a mature Christian to do some of the exercises (yoga) verses a new Christian’s. So is there room or no? From my experience it’s getting hard to know what is Pilates and what is yoga stretches. Some basic stretches we do look like yoga stretches. Ie triangle. I was doing that as a kid before yoga was a thing after gym class. What are we supposed to do now? (I’ve been a Christian for 30 plus years)
It is the guy from "Shogun".
We need this pastor back on he’s amazing!!!
Also do you remember that the Beatles had aliaster Crowley on their album cover
Plus does anyone remember their album cover that had dismembered babies and blood laying on the Beatles disgusting
Not saying that marijuana isn't to be avoided, but as someone who was once addicted to it I can say that it is not a psychedelic drug.
I’d like to see you guys do an examination of Eric Gilmour. He seems to me to be kind of a “Christian” guru of sorts.
On the way
I want to hear more about the Kundalini spirit and how the Hindu faith in the Christian church.
Look up Kundalini in churches today
Can you do a segment on modern day Saad Guru?
I used to have a shiva lingam just coming out of the new age it’s but thought getting rid of all my stuff I hoarded I had so many crystals cards musical spiritual instruments
What is the name of the guru please? The one in the video you watched. I want to research him. Edit: I found it.
Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, right?
right
What is the quote at the beginning of every podcast? "You're in a cult. I love you and I want you out of it and with Christ....." I can never understand the ending. It sound like "but you you you're." Love the podcast
i know this off track from this episode but where do y'all stand on Francis Chan?
I have been attending a Pentacostal church and very low histrionics unless you consider laying on of hands and raising your hands during worship wrong which it isn't. I'm leaving that church mostly because of Hillsong, elevation, and bethel music. I just feel a bad spirit there. The Bible never said these practices were to seize.
I came to see MSG: Threat level midnight lol the soundtrack was rowdy I had to see it.

That video he shared reminded me of idiocracy 😅
And then you just mentioned lithe movie I’m laughing so hard
if someone never heard about jesus, i wouldnt tell him only thru blood we can come to god, cmon man. tell him that he died for us, instead of blood
Based Jeff Durbin

Need to go into the devils den with the fire our Lord.. Jesus said I didn't come to send peace but a sword which is HIM the word... get on fire in him so the Father can honor him cast these devils out out out OUT! IN HIS NAME IN HIS POWER AND AUTHORITY...fast and pray and seek our Lord set these ppl free from the devil
Revolations 2:14
But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
In these religions they offer food to idols, many restaurants do this without ppl even knowing. I know for hare Krishna they try to feed offered food to everyone bc they believe it makes them come back next life as a devotee
Is 'Cultish' HYPER charismatic?
These terms of '...the SPIRIT of Mormonism...the SPIRIT...of this and that....'
It reminds me of hypercharismatics using the very same terminology and even saying, 'The demon of lust...' or '..the spirit of anger..'
Or even the use of 'Holy Spirit' instead of THE Holy Spirit.
Like, '...Holy Spirit told me....'
Curious.
It seems to be merely a manner of speaking that they're using here. Yet they wouldnt deny that demonic spirits are behind false religions.
I love the argument "There is no such thing as absolutes" because that statement itself is absolute and hilariously shows the person's lack of self awareness truly.
Also Indian guru bro = President Comacho
Why not feature one of the thousands of Christian cults in the United States? There’s one in Moscow, ID if you’re interested in researching. Also one in Pullman, WA. Two cults six miles apart!
This actually does need to be talked about more. Jesus the Savior IS the truth. But, mankind does take liberty with creating different denominations and false religions. There are "false" "c hristians". This is why it 8s dangerous lumping people into groups like society does these days instead of on individual basis.
Church of wells, the message ect. Have been covered here
One can discern in the eyes of these gurus; the presence of a demonic spirit.
I'm sorry Walt who?
Walter Martin I think
@@jessicaherndon1953 Thank you and God bless you sister ! Wow Walter Martin what a man of God fighting for truth and so lovingly. Not heard of him before you! Amazing speaker and I love how he always put Scriptures before anything else. Would love to see him go against bethel. We need more men like this!
The most precious interruptions 😅
He will die naked and alone.poor Kenny Copeland
Satan is going to take true things and claim them for himself. The bible has many crazy experiences... one prophet laid around naked prophesying all day, john wore camel hair and ate locusts, the Holy Spirit comes upon people to give supernatural strength etc. I don't think we have to fear God being God. We put our faith in Jesus, read and meditate on the Word and the HS can really minister to us deeply w overwhelming joy and come upon us. We test the Spirit. Don't shut Jim out.
Him out lol
MSG = Angel Martin. He thinks he finally found the perfect scam. It'll go south though, like always, and he'll be begging Jimmy to bail him out... lol
Please leave out ridiculous political commentary. Bicycles are not an indication of spiritual bankruptcy. Bikes are just a form of transportation, also quite popular throughout Europe which is by no means a 3rd-world polytheistic continent.
It’s like saying cars are “witchcraft”, black cats are demons and witches, crows are voodoo, etc.
JESUS DIED FOR OUR SINS!!!
That’s all you need to accept and know.
I know all Christians pastors are bad as I've seen Jerry Falwell, a Christian, and David Koresh, a Christian. ...... Would you consider these men a fair portrayal of Christian leaders? Likely no, yet this video focuses on Osho and other bad gurus, failing to mention Ramana Maharshi, Srila Prahbupada, Vivekananda and many great teachers. Yet, you call out Hindu sites showing crazy charasmatic Christians ... yet what's the difference between that and what you are doing here? None. The guy is calling out others for exactly what he is doing. I mean, he's clearly "irrational".
That saint guru dude.. If Steven Segal was Indian lol smh
God is not the author of confusion
Hinduism is a 200+ year old religion that comes out of the Universalist Church in England, and Theosophical Society, created as a way to convert Hinduism to Christianity. This is not a Vedic religion. The Vedas is the foundation of Sanatana Dharma. There's a difference. Its like calling you a Mormon, because Mormons and you are both Christians, so I guess I can interchange the words. If you don't want to be called a Mormon or Christian Scientist or Branch Davidian, then why not show the same respect to others? @6 He's explaining the view of Adi Shankara of one to be unified with Atma, but that view was refuted by Ramanuja as wrong and not a correct interpretation. Not all Hindu gurus think they are god, to say they are is a grave misunderstanding of Hinduism and the belief system. Its sorta like saying all Christians are Mormons, which is wrong, as there's lots of branches of Christian thought. To say you're a Mormon is insulting and ignorant, yet its okay to summarize all Hinduism as one point of view that was debunked 1000 years ago. Hmmm. Hypocritical much? Agenda driven to "willfully suppress truth"? I mean, obviously this guest is "spiritually oppressed" since he promotes lies and deliberate ignorance. Imagine being deliberately ignorant and calling that having spiritual truth.
Matthew 11 28-30 hmm my yoke (yoga) is light my burden is easy. Hmm seems Christianity has elements of Hinduism as well
Oh the cognitive dissonance of cults! 😳🥺
The opening scene of the guy talking to the swami about "we've sinned against god, and only by the blood can we have hope" has one glaring error. Its meaningless. Its like saying "We are all blue cars, and only by rubbing Stonehedge can we have hope to be a banana". I jest, but the situation is that in Sanatana Dharma and Neo-Hinduism (one is a 5000+ year old religion, one is a British thing from 200+ years ago), the concept of sin is completely different. There's no such thing as original sin. So, to tell someone that they need Jesus to give them hope to save them from something they don't believe in - fails. It jibberish. I see this over and over with Christians. You have to first convince someone they are in danger before you can save someone from it. You need to first tell folks that original sin is real, as otherwise its as meaningless to Hindus as Falun Dafa's beliefs in evil spirits are to Christians. I don't see any Christians saying if folks are not saved they will be lost to Falun Dafa's evil spirits, as they don't believe this is a threat, they likely don't believe this is a legit religion. Since original sin isn't real, why should I fear it? You must show me its real to win my faith in Jesus, and even then, the Srimad Bhagavatam (which Christians don't read, but they should if they want to know Hindu beliefs first hand) gives solutions how to get out of sin. So you have to then show why these texts are wrong. @2 "He's under great evil influence" cause the swami is not receiving the message. NO, your message is wrong. That's the problem. You're telling people to be saved from a problem that isn't real. You might as well tell folks to pray to Jesus to save them from Dracula, the Mummy and the Wolfman. The only evil influence is this guest, who thinks the problem isn't him and his message. When you lack such self-awareness that's an evil influence on you. He is trapped in worldly intelligence, lacking spiritual intelligence.
Hi my friend. I understand your point. Nevertheless, your consciousness daily convicts you of your sin through guilt. Your sense of justice, daily, convicts you that there needs to be retribution for sin. The latter when people hurt you.
Combining the two, honesty demands you to acknowledge that you will pay for your sins and the only possibility for this is for a Judge higher than ourselves to exist.
A Judge who embedded this sense of right and wrong within you. This is God.
This is the Christian message. We are all sinners headed to Court and will be convicted. We will pay with death. You and I both know this.
But there is a way out, if we except the love of Christ who paid the debt for us with his blood. His life.
Before you protest; first explain where your sense of right and wrong and justice are founded upon.
we as Christians gotta stop demonizing marijuana just b/c the pagan misuses it.
If it gets you high you are not sober. God calls us to be sober. With personal experience smokin reefer is what made me curious to psychedelics and got me into new age nonsense. Stay sober my friend
I don’t think it’s right to bother others in their religious places.
Is it bothersome if it can save someone's life...? As we believe the gospel does?
We need to be careful to not be the kind of people who never evangelize because we're worried we'll step on toes. Jesus stepped on toes. The enemy is the one who will give you reasons till the end of time to NOT evangelize. They can walk away if they want. Which one are you more concerned with: their feelings/upset or their eternal destination? Just wondering
@@rachelashalen1868 They're already saved through their own religion. They don't need your preaching.
This entire video was nothing but monstrously stupid propaganda.
