Shuchita Pota (Canberra) and Harshita Reddy (Townsville), speakers featured in Suvastu’s Hindu Heritage Webinar series, which explores Hindu heritage, identity, and community engagement in Australia.

Suvastu has announced that its next Hindu Heritage Webinar will be held in September 2026, with the date, time and speakers to be confirmed in the coming weeks.

The organisation said the upcoming session will continue discussions on Hindu heritage and identity, while inviting participants to contribute ideas on how communities can preserve, transmit and contribute to Hindu traditions for future generations.

Ahead of the event, Suvastu has encouraged viewers to watch recordings from its previous webinar featuring Harshita Reddy from Townsville and Shuchita Pota from Canberra. Their presentations focused on living Hindu Dharma in Australia and the experience of practising Hindu traditions within Australia’s multicultural society. The talks have been positioned as a starting point for the broader conversation that the September webinar aims to continue. Suvastu – YouTube .

Harshita Reddy spoke about growing up in India before moving to Australia as a child, and how that transition made staying connected to Hindu traditions a more conscious effort. She argued that preserving Hindu heritage requires communities to pass on understanding and meaning, rather than simply maintaining rituals and customs. She also spoke about the role of families, community organisations and youth programs in helping younger generations engage with their heritage.

The September webinar is expected to include an interactive component, with attendees invited to share practical and community-focused ideas that could strengthen the initiative’s three stated pillars: preserve, transmit and contribute.

Suvastu said it is seeking suggestions that can help sustain and enrich Hindu heritage over the long term, with a focus on community participation, education and intergenerational engagement. Organisers said the aim is to encourage constructive discussion about how Hindu heritage can remain meaningful for future generations in Australia.

The recorded presentations and updates on the September webinar are available through Suvastu’s YouTube channel.

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
