The conversion as such
calls for nothing much
mean the religious change
that be within a range
India being a secular nation
with Hinduism as the religion
along with many others in the fray
Islam, Christianity at the bay
with other faiths in a minority
Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism as priority
the ancient land of Vedas and scriptures
stays
united in all other features
the Hindus tolerant in all ways
pay slight attention in any case
the others do not express similar feel
become infuriated and come out with a deal
cry hoarse over their faith being shattered
not knowing that it is each one’s wish and interest
cannot contrive a restriction and a circumspect
politicise the religious beliefs to the wildest
fleecing peace and bringing chaos in the quickest.

Conversion in religion is not the need
Necessity is to convert the inner self
Emulate good ideas or ideals
Conversion by inducement or through coercion
Is a sin which converter and converted will have in abundance
Tantamount to insult to the religion originally embraced
Or the new taken one
For such people are neither here nor there
But remain hovering from one direction to another
Like a pendulum
With nothing to show on the day of Judgement.
True. Religion, whichever faith it might be, teaches tolerance,
It is the maturity of mind that matters.
Thanks, Harbans.
