520 |a Yoga, karma, meditation, guru--these terms, once obscure, are now a part of the American lexicon. Combining Hinduism with Western concepts and values, a new hybrid form of religion has developed in the United States over the past century.

Williamson provides an overview of the emergence of these movements through examining exchanges between Indian Hindu.
