Global Hindu Footprint - Spread Beyond India

Dear ben_ami,

In my opinion, one such nation should be Holland. I had lived in Holland for a few months in year 2000. Hindus were doing very well there. I think they had migrated in large numbers from Suriname and still doing so on an ongoing basis. They have adopted to that soceity in outer norms of lifestyle, but still maintaining the inner Hindu life and culture. I had noticed the following things:

- Well kept Hindu temples
- Even noticed a "Vishnu Hindu High School" in The Hague if I am not wrong.
- Bhojpuri/Hindi TV/Radio channels and preserving Hindi/Bhojpuri as the common communication mode, while also of course having Dutch as first language.
- Although not as wealthy as you see them in UK, Canada and USA, Hindus in Holland as mostly working people, but noticeable and respectable in soceity, well integrated with Dutch culture too.
- Weddings and other functions totally as per Hindu customs, and inside the soceity.
- Good and live cultural and spiritual connections with India. These people visiting ashrams in Haridwar, and Varanasi etc. Gurus and Swamis visting Holland.

But then I am talking about year 2000, which is before 9/11. I do not know the status right now. Any Hindu Hollanders on forum?

Regards
