World Hindu Congress 2018 - IV |
Finding new ways to open trade, further regulatory reforms in India, skill development, building ecosystems providing capital to startups and mentoring programs for young entrepreneurs were recommended during the economic conference. The women`s conference was led by entrepreneur and Grammy nominated artist Chandrika Tandon, and outlined the short term goal of conducting value based workshops, seminars and symposiums for young girls, and long term goals of establishing an `Angel Investor` group for women entrepreneurs and a global Hindu Women Business Directory. A strategy for developing scholarship in religious studies and a strong international network of Hindu scholars were the outcomes of the Education conference. The Congress recognized four organizations for their outstanding contributions to spreading Hindu philosophy: The Bochasanwasi Aksharpurshottam Swaminrayan Sanstha (BAPS) was honored for its “extreme visual idealism” seen in its architecturally beautiful temples; Chinmaya Mission for explaining the essence of the Gita; Geeta Press, Gorakhpur for making sacred Hindu literature easily accessible; and the International Society for Krishna Consciousness for spreading the message of Gita.
