However, the organization expressed concern over Ratzinger's stance towards Hinduism. "Ratzinger has described Hindu meditative practices as 'auto-erotic' and has stated that the Hindu doctrine of karma is 'morally cruel', said Vikram Masson, Navya Shastra Co-Chairman, "clearly he is misinformed about the central practices and tenets which bind the world's 800 million Hindus", he added.

International Hindu organization welcomes selection of Pope Benedict XVI, but questions his stance on Hinduism.
