The Hindu Festival Media Initiative The Goal To proactively provide creative, accurate, well-designed coverage of Hinduism in hundreds of American newspapers, using our festivals as year-around entry points—thus achieving quality coverage, throughout the year and throughout the US. The India-wide festivals proposed to be included are: Ram Navami, Raksha Bandhan, Ganesha Chaturthi, Divali, Holi, Guru Purnima, Krishna Janmashtami, Navaratri and Maha Sivaratri. We'd also include one on the Kumbhabhishekam, for a total of ten. These would be permanent resources, to be used year after year. Once in place, they would provide a constant flow of Hindu knowledge into the American mind. They would also be made available on the web, for families, schools, temples, ashrams, etc. Futuristically, the series could be ported to video episodes for use on YouTube, etc.
