520 |a This article explores how young transnationally oriented Tamil Hindus experience and reflect upon local places of Hindu worship in rural Norway. They compare such places to the larger and more aesthetically elaborate temples they experience elsewhere. Perspectives from the work of Ole Riis and Linda Woodhead (2010) and Abby Day (2011, 2013) are employed in the analysis of the interrelations between individuals, places, emotions, religiosity, and beliefs. The findings suggest that different places evoke different emotions. Some places generate strong religious emotions, while others produce embodied emotions of peace, wellbeing, and belonging. These emotions can, in some settings, be considered as religious, while in other settings this is not necessarily the case. The material on which this article is based consists of field notes from observations, written responses to a questionnaire with open-ended questions (N=25), and transcripts from photo-elicitation interviews (N=7). The participants were between 16 and 25 years of age and had been raised in north-western Norway, where the density of Hindus and Hindu organisations is relatively low.
