WHC 2022, Bangkok Creating the Superstructure
The World Hindu Congress 2022, Bangkok, Thailand will be held on 4-6 November with the theme
Jayasya Aayatnam Dharmah, meaning “Dharma, the Abode of Victory”. Seven parallel thematic
conferences to articulate the values, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of Hindus in all its vibrance and
glory will constitute this WHC. The conferences will provide space to discuss and deliberate upon the
opportunities and challenges facing Hindus across the world and how to address them valiantly. These
conferences will also focus on areas of strategic importance to Hindus and provide avenues for
collaboration among Hindu leaders, activists and thinkers for the Hindu resurgence.
WHC 2022 will provide opportunities for Hindus to network, exchange ideas, work confidently and
model their future course of action. Overall, WHC 2022 shall make us feel that grand pride of being a
Hindu and shore up our mind to take up our duties and responsibilities towards our Hindu Dharma
fearlessly.
Bharat and Southeast Asia share common Dharmic and cultural values that find expression in language,
arts, architecture and tradition. Magnificent symbols of a shared heritage can be seen in Wat Phra Si
Rattana Satsadaram (Thailand), Angkor Wat and Phnom Kulen (Cambodia), Prambanan and Borobudur
(Indonesia), Bagan (Myanmar), Kedaram (Malaysia), Cham Temple, Mỹ Sơn (Vietnam) and Vat Phou
(Laos).
Hindus are a 1.2 billion strong community, comprising 16% of the world’s population with presence in
around 200 countries. Across the world, we are the leaders and catalysts in all spheres of human
endeavour - business, economy, education, governance, media, technology and culture. As a civilisation,
we have always aspired for a Dharmic world which is prosperous, just and peaceful. However, such
aspirations can only be realised if the Hindu leadership - spread across nations, societies and cultures -
comes together to organise and combine its energies for global welfare. The World Hindu Congress
(WHC) is the only global platform where this translates into reality.
Thus, the WHC is a continuation of the quintessential and original yajnya (self-sacrifice) for the greater
interest for the Hindu society. Its purposefulness and comprehensiveness enables Hindus to come
together consistently on a shared platform for a shared purpose inspired by shared values.

I have attended many such conferences, and seen that they provoke few real changes. But this
