A Cultural Hindu is a religiously unobservant individual who identifies with Hinduism, usually due to family background.[1]
Definition
Emory University professor John Y. Fenton defines the locution as follows:[1]
The term "cultural Hindu" generally refers to Desis with a Hindu family background who have low observance of religious practices and whose identification with the Hindu religious tradition is primarily cultural or communal.[1]
The term has come into vogue as a result of secularization.[2] Cultural Hindus, while not religiously devout, may still observe Hindu festivals, such as Diwali.[3] For these individuals, this commemoration of Hindu festivals, as well as occasional temple attendance, serve as a celebration of their heritage.[4]
