SOUTH AFRICA : A Priest from the United States has been enlisted to help a local organisation with it's Hindu revival campaign. Pandit Chunelall Narine, founder and head priest of the Shri Trimurti Bhavan in the U.S., was invited to the country by the South African Hindu Dharma Sabha to help with their Hindu Renaissance Festival.

Narine, also a bhajan singer, author and motivational speaker, received the Ambassador of Peace Award from the United Nations.

He said the global trend of converting from Hinduism to other faiths was amongst the topics to be discussed. 'If you have knowledge about your religion, then if someone knocks on your door you know what to tell them because you have strong faith.' 'Through discourses and bhajans, people are enlightened about their religion and given help regarding challenges in their personal life and social interactions.'
