Buddhists, Hindus, and Sikhs in America explores the challenges
that Asian immigrants face when their religion--and consequently
culture--is "remade in the U.S.A." Peppered with stories of
individual people and how they actually live their religion, this
informative book gives an overview of each religion's beliefs, a
short history of immigration--and discrimination--for each group,
and how immigrants have adapted their religious beliefs since they
arrived. Along the way, the roles of men and women, views toward
dating and marriage, the relationship to the homeland, the "brain
drain" from Asia of scientists, engineers, physicians, and other
professionals, and American offshoots of Asian religions, such as
the Hare Krishnas and Transcendental Meditation (TM), are
discussed.
