Prathyaksha Raksha Daiva Sabha
Prathyaksha Raksha Daiva Sabha (PRDS, "God's Church of Visible Salvation") was a religious protest movement founded in 1909 by Poikayil Yohannan in Kerala, India.[1] The PRDS has its head office located at Eraviperoor, Pathanamthitta. The PRDS rejected both Christianity and Hinduism, and preached that God would send an incarnation to liberate the slaves.[2]
