| 總結: | This article is part of a larger research project on patterns of religious pluralism in the city of Pretoria, and is based on field research conducted in 1993 and 1994. Material extraneous to the main thrust of the project is being published in a series of articles. This article describes the history of the Hindu faith in Pretoria and how the Hindus in the city have adapted to the sometimes hostile environment that the city presented. Attention is also given to the ever-encroaching problem of secularisation and the attempts made by Hindu organisations to promote religious awareness and fluency in Indian languages. |
