On a tip from a friend at church, I looked up the National Geographic website and looked at some amazing videos. Check them out and you will realize why this area of the world needs Jesus. (Caution: Some of this footage is quite graphic)
The Aghori People
Cremation
It breaks my heart to know that there are people in this world searching for something so badly, they resort to the types of things the Aghoris do, and the gods these people worship. South Asia is a dark and lost region. Please pray for this enormous population, the majority of which have never heard the name of Jesus. I can only imagine what a great and huge witness the large population of South Asia can be for our Lord Jesus when they come to know the truth of His word. Just the movement among the small amount of this poplulation that I have witnessed is like a spark among dead brush, and its resulting fire is spreading quickly. It's an exciting time for this region, but also a critical time. Spritual warfare is all around, and the enemy does not want these people to know the truth. Intentional prayer for this region is essential. Why? The videos speak for themselves.

Interesting videos. I watched a couple of them on the NatGeo website link. How does one get a handle on praying for such a huge population of people? Our house churches here help support an Ecuadorian young lady who serves as a missionary to S. Asia. She was just here for a visit to raise support, and her stories are absolutely incredible.
Guy, It seems overwhelming for this population, but I continue to feel that the time for this region is now. God is already preparing hearts through dreams and visions, and testimony of life change. It is incredible how thirsty these people really are for Jesus. We can only hope to lift the people to the Lord in prayer and for Him to work among these people. Otherwise, we would easily give up and leave these people to themselves because of the huge harvest. I am excited to be chosen by the Lord to be part of this type of revolution.

Just watching these videos caused me to feel the darkness. Satan always chains one to rituals that are meaningless, but consumes a person's life, taking away freedom. I am thankful that you made me aware s.a.m., these people and others like them need Christ.
Debbie, thanks for checking the videos. People just don't know how dark it really is in this area. Seeing it in person is even more chilling. My wife has the gift of discernment, where she can see evil in people. She had a hard time when we visited last October, and seeing the evident evil all around us. It's not my gift, and I even saw it! Jesus is the only hope!
