| Summary: | The aim of this article, as exemplified by the Srilankan-Tamil Hindus, is to show how religion is changing in a cultural encounter and, in that perspective, how a local Danish-Tamil Hinduism is formed - a local tradition that you will not find anywhere else. This case study illustrates how a third identity comes into being, an identity shaped in the dialectic between the reshaped tradition and the elements of the same tradition that the members consider to be the key elements. It also shows how tradition as well as culture, identity and religion are dynamic phenomena which change along with the new environment and needs of the members. |
