HOUSTON, Texas - The Dharma Bee contest,
organized by HSS (Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh) is getting an enthusiastic
response from children of all ages across the USA.
Learning from
the popularity of spelling bee contests among Indian students, HSS has
come up with the Dharma Bee to encourage children to learn about Hindu
culture and heritage -- which incorporates the Buddha as "The Refiner" of the Eternal Dharma, an incarnation of the Lord Vishnu -- in a fun environment.

The topic is Bhagwan Sri
Krishna (early childhood stories) and Swami Vivekananda (life and
message). Although the registration deadline
is March 10th, over 2,300 children have already registered for the contest. “Children who have registered and are participating are
really enthusiastic and are having fun while learning. In many places,
as soon as asked if they wanted to participate in such a contest, almost
all children raised their hands,” said Sreevidya Radhakrishna, a
national coordinator. More
