Hello,

I am a student at one of the UK university doing Masters. I would like to know if there is any Tamil Brahmins association here in UK? :help:
I wish to get in touch with them to get some information about carnatic lessons, :violin::music:group sloka chanting,:grouphug: bhajans etc. :lalala:

I live in a University town and there are not many Indians :nono: and therefore associated activities for pandigais and vratams.

I have been earnestly looking for Narayaneyam, vishnu sahasranama chanting etc

Even if there aren't any such groups yet, I would like to know if any of you are interested to start these sloka chanting in any temples in London?ray2:

I will move to London by Sep and I will be more delighted to participate.

Regards,
Sneha

In London we have two organisations run by Tamil Brahmins one is south Indian Society and the other is London Sath Sangam. I was the chairman and secretary of both for some time. But London Sath Sangam is open to all irrespective of religion, race or caste.

You can google South Indian Society and get more details.

We have over 130 Sri Lankan Tamil Organisations, 26 Tamil Hindu Temples and institutions like Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan in London. Turn every where you will see weekly music classes, Yoga classes, dance classes.

We have over 64 Sathya Sai Bhajan groups here.

London Murugan Temple and Mahalakshmi Temple in East London are run by Indian Tamils. You will see lot of Kurukkals from Tamil Nadu.If you go to the temple, you will get all the information about on coming chariot festivals.

I was the manager for the famous London Tamil Sangam which is run by Indian Tamil, but not Brahmins. I was the secretary of Tamil Heritage Foundation which runs Tamil events.

There is one World Tamil Organisation in Croydon run by Indian Tamils under Jacob ravibalan et al.

Any one needs help can call me on 07951 370 697 (London Mobile Number, beware of call charges!!!) Good Luck.
