About Us

The United Hindu Council is an organization dedicated to fostering awareness and appreciation of Hindu values while addressing critical issues faced by Hindu communities in the US and globally.

With its motto to educate, elevate, and energize, the Council highlights Hinduism’s ethos of peace, inclusivity, and mutual respect. Central to its mission is promoting the principles of Universal Oneness and removing misconceptions related to Hinduism, to bridge cultural and communal divides.

The Council also draws attention to the persecution of Hindu minorities globally, an issue often overlooked. From attacks on religious freedoms, to violence and forced displacement in certain regions, Hindus face challenges that require acknowledgement and urgent action.

Through engagement with all sections of society, dialogue and education, the Council aims to work towards building a society where differences are celebrated, and all individuals—regardless of race, gender, or faith—are treated with dignity.

Through its initiatives, the United Hindu Council aspires to create a platform for reconciliation and understanding, using Hinduism’s timeless teachings of non-violence (ahimsa), harmony, and service (seva) to all living beings as guiding principles. This approach aims to resolve tensions, promote interfaith respect, and foster a collective commitment to equitable and harmonious coexistence.
