Today Jonathan Puri tells the conversion story of Sanjeev Puri, his father. Sanjeev was born in New Delhi, India to a Scottish mother and Indian father. The family moved to a poor area of Scotland after Sanjeev’s mother faced prejudice in India. However, Sanjeev’s father faced bullying in Scotland due to the lack of ethnic diversity in their town. After he passed away, Sanjeev tried to figure out what happened to him after death. The Hindu belief of “reincarnation” did not sit well with him. For a while, Sanjeev investigated the Church of Scotland, which his mother was apart of. There, he was told, that because his father was not baptized, he went to hell. Sanjeev did not believe this to be true either, but came to terms with the fact that maybe he would never know where his father has gone. Soon after, he met missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and began taking lessons with them. When Sanjeev learned about Eternal Families and the Plan of Salvation, he finally found the answer to where his dad had gone.
