Director of Community Outreach
Esther Dhanraj, also known as Kamakshi, is a staunch upholder of Sanatana Dharma. With a Master’s degree in English Literature from Osmania University, India, and a research-focused Master’s degree in Christian Studies, specializing in Apologetics, from Luther Rice University, Georgia, she has delved deeply into Christian doctrines and practices. Initially a devout follower of dogmatic teachings, Esther liberated herself from superstitions by subjecting her faith to academic scrutiny. Recognizing the importance of academic inquiry in religious understanding and practice, she now focuses on raising awareness about it. Esther actively supports grassroots initiatives aimed at educating rural communities about Sanatana Dharma and mentors leadership teams of various organizations involved in similar efforts.
As the Director of Community Outreach at the Hindu University of America, she brings her rich experience working with volunteer groups, leveraging her rhetorical abilities for mobilizing funds for dharmic causes and her academic expertise in religious research and writing to advance her mission.
