Arya Samaj in South Africa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arya Samaj is a Hindu reform movement in South Africa.[1] Like other parts of the world where people of Indian origin are settled, the teachings of Swami Dayananda Saraswati, founder of the Arya Samaj, made their way to South Africa during the beginning of the twentieth century. The Arya Samaj encouraged Indian South Africans to take pride in their heritage and culture and promoted education and social reform.
