HINDUISM IN BRITAIN TODAY

 

Until recently, Hindus in Britain were the quiet

minority apparently untouched by the fundamentalism,

or religious sensitivities experienced by other

minority faiths. Now that is changing. Many are

appealing for separate recognition as British Hindu

rather than Asian, and the young in particular are

questioning aspects of the faith that their parents

and grandparents took for granted. Ritula Shah talks

to the new voices of contemporary Hinduism and finds

out why Britain's third largest faith group is showing

a rapidly increasing confidence.
