“My Mom Thought I’d Joined a Punk Rock Band.”
How did Timothy Kiernan, a boy from Wexford, Ireland—with no connection to India or Hinduism—become Shaunaka Rishi Das, Director of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies? Founded in 1997, the Centre was among the first institutions in the world devoted to Hindu Studies.
His journey is a story of the soul — of a man from rural Ireland who discovered his spiritual home in the philosophy, discipline, and love of Hindu thought — despite growing up without any ties to
India. In just one conversation, he taught me more about what Hindu Studies truly means, why it matters today, and why we need it in the global narrative.
India: A Story in the Making, titled “My Mom Thought I’d Joined a Punk Rock Band.” Coming soon.
