dc.description.abstract	This study explores the religious phenomenon of Hindu-Inspired meditation movements. The question of how these movements should be interpreted in the context of religion in North America is examined in association with the current academic conversation involving American Buddhism, and responded to from the perspective of Hindu religion, British colonial influence on the tradition, and related aspects of globalization theory.	en_CA
