In fact, he is _ Satsang you deeper into the pit =i Hell. And, above all, he pre- pares you to die. The Negro *“preacher, he told his attentive audience, is teaching you to ? Jook for a better life efter “death. This -theory keeps you Jdisunited and diverts your at- “tention and hinders your devel. ‘epment, economically, political- ily and spiritually.
