Decades before so called Mother Teresa played on poverty of Hindus to make billions, this Irish showed to the Western World that Hindus are Daughter Sellers and Make their living out of running Prostitution.
In 1894, Amy received an invitation from a friend to join the Church

of England Zenana Mission in Bangalore and a year later in 1896, Amy went to go live in the Tirunelveli district with Reverend Thomas Walker and his wife who were CMS missionaries.
Amy learnt Tamil, started wearing Saree and mixing with Hindu women, slowly she spread the word

that and I quote
“Deeply rooted in the religion was the practice of selling little girls & boys who were unwanted to ‘marry’ the Brahmin temple priests. Amy became increasingly aware of the fact that many Indian children were dedicated to the gods by their parents or guardians,

became temple children, and lived in moral and spiritual danger”.
How she lured little girls to Christianity?
Amy realized that she must pretend to be an Indian and visit the temples herself. She would dye and stain her light skin brown with coffee or tea bags, and her brown

eyes helped her fit right in as a Hindu. No one would guess that the dark-skinned woman wearing a light blue sari, which was associated with the lowest caste, the untouchables, was a missionary from Ireland.

Amy Carmicahel born on this day in 1867, she spent her last 56 years

at India and 20 years of that as Crippled & Invalid.
