#151 As an American-born Hindu
Dr A. Twice in a row you have publicised your Hindu heritage. Apart from being born in a Hindu family, what makes you identify as a Hindu? What do you do that makes feel Hindu, separate from, say, a Christian or a Muslim?
Was this a purely rhetorical device?. I don't mean any disrespect. I am not even looking for an argument. Just curious about what your idea of being Hindu is.
