The Fake Healer: Lately, social media platforms are flooded with videos of a self-proclaimed healer, Pastor Bajinder Singh, who claims to cure severe ailments. Bajinder, a former Hindu from a Jat family, reportedly encountered Christianity while serving a prison sentence. During his time in jail, he met a priest who influenced him to convert, leading to his current identity as a Christian pastor. Now, he promotes himself as a healer capable of treating major diseases, including cancer, AIDS, and paralysis, and even claims to bring people back from the brink of death.
Exploiting the Innocent Under the Guise of Faith Healing
The Fake Healer: Pastor Bajinder Singh’s viral videos claim miraculous cures that supposedly defy medical science. His alleged healing powers have drawn attention to how religious conversion practices often target innocent people seeking hope for their ailments. Critics argue that the popularity of such figures raises concerns about deceptive tactics used in the name of conversion, where people are led to believe in unrealistic cures without scientific backing.
A Healer Who Seeks Medical Help Himself
Interestingly, media reports reveal that despite Bajinder Singh’s claims to cure diseases miraculously, he still relies on conventional medicine from doctors for his own health issues. This contradiction has led to further scrutiny, especially as Pastor Bajinder faces serious allegations of crimes, including rape, robbery, and forced conversions. Despite these accusations, he enjoys a massive following on social media, with thousands of people drawn to his supposed miracles.
Double Standards in Religious Criticism
While Hindu spiritual figures like Bageshwar Baba and Jaya Kishori frequently face scepticism and criticism on social media, figures like Pastor Bajinder Singh often escape such scrutiny, even though their claims are equally unproven. This discrepancy raises questions about the validity of these so-called miracles and why many continue to believe in them. The viral spread of Pastor Bajinder’s videos points to the need for increased awareness of potentially misleading faith healers who exploit people’s vulnerabilities in the name of religion.
