Hindus are largest religious group in three countries, the analysis adds.
Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, congratulating the Hindu community for various achievements worldwide, urged them to continue with the traditional values of hard work, higher morals, stress on education, sanctity of marriage, etc., amidst so many distractions.
Rajan Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, advised Hindus to focus on inner search, stay pure, explore the vast wisdom of scriptures, make spirituality more attractive to youth and children, stay away from the greed, and always keep God in the life.
