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.
