The diversity of religious life in South Asia is remarkable and much of this diversity is replicated in the diaspora communities around the world. The case studies in this book explore and analyse the social, religious and cultural reality of people in the diaspora belonging to Jainism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism and Zoroastrianism and originating from four of the South Asian nation states (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka). The book highlights the religious diversity that exists in the diaspora communities both across the traditions and within the particular religions. 410 0$aStudies in the history of religions ;$v101. 606 $aSouth Asians$zForeign countries$xSocial life and customs 606 $aSouth Asians$zForeign countries$xReligion 615 0$aSouth Asians$xSocial life and customs. 615 0$aSouth Asians$xReligion. 676 $a909/.04914 701 $aJacobsen$b Knut A.$f1956-$0899418 701 $aKumar$b P.
