In regard to the recent controversy about the work of Mother
Teresa, there are certain points that are hidden from the general public. One
of the truths is – “Baptisms of the dying people”.
Mother Teresa directed members of her order
to baptize dying patients, irrespective of the fact that person
belonged to which religion. In a speech at the Scripps Clinic
in California in January 1992, she said: "... not one has died
without receiving the special ticket for St. Peter. We call baptism ticket for
St. Peter.”
Dying people were asked whether they wanted a blessing by
which their sins would be forgiven and they would meet God. The dying people never
refused. Thousands of people have died in Kalighat since 1952. So the number of
people converted can be well imagined.
The patients were not given essential information which
could help them in making an informed decision about conversion. So what was
this? Service or “Baptisms of the dying
souls.”
