Washington: Indian thinkers and spiritual leaders from Swami Vivekananda to Mahatma Gandhi and from B K S Iyengar to B R Ambedkar have left a lasting mark on the US, a diaspora body has said coinciding with the 250th anniversary of American Independence.
Advocacy group Indiaspora, a non-profit, has come up with a curated compilation highlighting the contribution of people of Indian origin, including the spread of spiritual teachings from the subcontinent, in shaping the American story.
