Read the story of two worlds that converge: one of Hindu immigrants
in America who want to preserve their traditions and pass them on
to their children in a new and foreign land, and one of American
spiritual seekers who find that the traditions of India fulfil
their most deeply held aspirations. Learn about the theoretical
approaches to Hinduism in America, the question of orientalism, and
"the invention of Hinduism." The book discusses: * the history of
Hinduism and its journey to America * how concepts like karma,
rebirth, meditation and yoga have infiltrated and influenced the
American consciousness * Hindu temples in North America * the
influence of Hinduism on vegetarianism and religious pluralism *
the emergence of an increasingly assertive socially and politically
active American Hinduism. Hinduism in America contains 30 images,
chapter summaries, a glossary, study questions, and suggestions for
further reading.
