My father who was a Hindu passed away several years ago. My mother is non-Indian and I was raised with both cultures, American and Indian. Recently we found out that my relatives tried to cut us out from inheriting a share of the property claiming that since we were foreigners were were not entitled to any money. Does anyone have any insight on this matter?

incomplete detail.
It was ancestral property ? When your father left India? When did he die. it is a complicated issue. You may be entitled for share.
Hindu joint family acts like a trust. All the members are like members of the trust. But succession law is quite complicated.
you need a real lawyer.

While hinduism is another form of religion, we have to look else where, to who really died for our sins so that we may be saved, there was only one, and believing in Jesus is the only true religion.
