Vishwa Hindi Nyas (World Hindi Foundation) held its 2009 Annual convention this past weekend in Edison, NJ. MASTRADIO was there to bring you the stories and coverage on an exclusive basis. We have some unique stories and content to show which are still pending their owner’s approval and we shall bring it to you as soon as we can. However, you can surely enjoy the following poems from their respective poets. I will not go into translating the same in English since a) its lot of work and b) it looses the emotional value in the translation process.

The event witnessed Hindi lovers from all parts of the USA as well as overseas. Given the recent emphasis on world languages by Homeland Security, Hindi is seeing an unprecedented surge in the USA. The event included cultural programs by members and local artists in all age groups. The keynote speaker was Anju Bhargava representing Obama’s Faith Initiative. Swami Prgyananda in his very eloquent and uplifting message to the audience emphasized that quite often the west plays a major role in reviving our lost legacies, as witnessed in re-popularizing Yog(a).

Counsel General from New York, Prabhu Dayal was also present and emphasized the usage of Hindi and steps being taken by government of India to further popularize the same.
