KAUAI, HAWAII, July 9, 2020 (HPI): Hinduism Today is doing a story on the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our individual and collective practice of religion. We request HPI readers to send us a two paragraph report on their own experience.
How has the lockdown impacted you on a personal and and religious level? Some we know have been consumed with the consequences of the pandemic and given little thought to anything religious. But many other say they have taken the unexpected time off and solitude to deepen their religious life, at least somewhat.
If relevant, what is the situation with your local temple and/or religious organization? How have they adapted to the situation?
Please include a photograph of yourself, either a simple passport style “headshot,” a screen shot of you in an on-line satsang, sitting at a computer, in your home shrine or a photo of your closed temple along with screenshot of their on-line activities.
Kindly email your input to Acharya Arumuganathaswami, Managing Editor, ar@hindu.org. Would appreciate the input in the next day or two.
