In recognition of her courage, service, and advocacy, Deepa Karthik [https://soundbetter.com/profiles/673662-deepa-karthik-nj] has been conferred the Guardian of Dharma Award by the Coalition of Hindus of North America (CoHNA). The award celebrates her dedication to upholding Hindu values, advancing community engagement, and strengthening cultural identity in the diaspora.

CoHNA honored several distinguished dignitaries and community leaders who have made significant contributions to the preservation and promotion of Dharmic values.

The honorees were keynote speaker Rajiv Malhotra, celebrated author and founder of the Infinity Foundation, whose intellectual work has shaped contemporary discourse on Hindu thought globally; Pt. Satish Sharma, a respected Hindu leader from UK; Dr. TK Nakagaki, an interfaith leader known for his bridge-building efforts and Sahana Singh, author and commentator.

This collective recognition highlighted CoHNA's commitment to honoring both community advocates and public officials who play an important role in fostering understanding, dialogue, and representation

The Significance of the Award

The Guardian of Dharma Award honors individuals who embody the principles of harmony, duty, and moral integrity - and who actively champion these ideals in public life. For many in the Hindu community, the award signifies not only personal achievement but also a collective affirmation that faith, tradition, and modern civic engagement can coexist and enrich one another.

CoHNA's award underscores the importance of leaders who can bridge cultural heritage with contemporary challenges, those who speak for their communities, defend their rights, and inspire younger generations to remain rooted in spiritual values even as they navigate modern society
