Voices from our community

"As a Hindu, I feel what the Hindu University is doing is invaluable to Hinduism generally and to India. HUA provides the background as well as the foundation of what Hinduism is. Most Hindus, wherever they are, would find the courses offered to be of immense value, richness, and personal satisfaction."

Kiran Chhaganlal

“ The Orientation to Hindu Studies Course” offered by the Hindu University, had a great mix of both simple and complex concepts of Hinduism, explained by erudite Professors. This not only gave me clarity about a plethora of topics like Sanskrit Studies, Post-colonialism, Orientalism, Indology, etc, but also generated enough curiosity in me about the courses HUA had to offer."

Jyoti Suravarjula

"Apart from explaining some hard to understand topics in a very interesting way and being able to listen to lectures from the very knowledgeable professors, it has been very convenient to learn so much without leaving home. I feel that every Hindu must take full advantage of these wonderful study programs offered by HUA."

Bindu Patel

" This was a great course, well organized, engaging, and to-the-point. I found the Zoom based virtual classrooms to be a very effective platform for teaching a class. The participants were eager and curious and contributed immensely to the quality of the class. The rotation of teachers from various departments was awesome. "

"Traveling through the “spiritual India” is like enjoying the care of a nurturing grandmother; she is ever-present to transfer the profundity of her ancestral knowledge."
