Vivek Ramaswamy’s Hindu faith is front and center in his GOP presidential campaign

Associated Press  

Vivek Ramaswamy is as comfortable talking about Bible stories as he is sharing the message of the Bhagavad Gita, one of the most sacred Hindu texts. He said Ramswamy’s “common sense values and shared virtues” are the reasons he is being “very warmly received by audiences of faith.” While Ramaswamy’s faith may not be ideal for some Christian voters, it comes down to making the best choice available, said Vander Plaats, president of a conservative group, The Family Leader. “He is among those candidates who may not have all those expected attributes or the experience … but through the power of their ideas, are able to get into the conversation.” Ria Chakrabarty, policy director of Hindus for Human Rights, said she is concerned by Ramaswamy’s attempt to “package Hinduism in the family values mold, talking about it as a monotheistic religion to appeal to the Abrahamic faiths.” “From a Hindu perspective, every person has a fundamental right to make a choice about how they want to access health care,” she said. " Suhag Shukla, executive director of the Hindu American Foundation, said that when Hindu Americans run for any office “it’s inspirational for kids to know they can be who they are and be proud of their heritage and values.” Ramaswamy’s candidacy also reflects the growing political diversity within the Hindu community, Shukla said. He compared Ramaswamy to Queen Esther in the Bible who was chosen by God to save the Jewish people from genocide: “He needs to show us why this is his Esther moment.” ___ Associated Press religion coverage receives support through the AP’s collaboration with The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.
