Cows, Curry & Caste: Seeking a Hindu Identity
Often seen as the religion that has no God, or the religion that’s not a religion, can we find clarity on what defines us as Hindu? We explore the struggle of forming our individual and collective identity as Hindus in a modern world, at a time where so often, we have identity thrust upon us.

About the Event
Often seen as the religion that has no God, or the religion that’s not a religion, can we find clarity on what defines us as Hindu?
Drawing on findings from their joint paper, Dr Sachin Nandha and Acharya Vidyabhaskar, joined by Hindol Sengupta, explore the struggle of forming our individual and collective identity as Hindus in a modern world; at a time of buzz words and identity politics, where so often, we have identity thrust upon us.
It is becoming increasingly apparent that our self-perception plays a key role in our flourishing, by grasping and creating our own narrative can we begin to shape the world around us?
