Title Transglobalism of self-exiled Hindus: the case of Australia Author(s) Bilimoria, Purushottama Journal name Religion compass Volume number 1 Issue number 2 Start page 305 End page 328 Publisher Wiley Interscience Place of publication Malden, MA. Publication date 2007 ISSN 1749-8171 Summary Hindu diaspora is now a global phenomenon, from the early immigrant experience as coolie labourers through the transnational movement of professional Hindus/Indians to many corners of the globe. In this paper, I intend to contextualize Hindu diaspora experience in Australia in the broader theoretical thinking on transnational migration, globalization and heterogeneity. One concern is to understand how distinctive is the religious diaspora experience of Hindus in Australia from those of the international South Asia diaspora. Much literature on South Asians in the West neglect religion, while recent studies disclose the considerable prominence of religion in various communities, especially in comparison with the secularizing tendencies typical of many white societies.
