Over the last few years a handful of small UK and US businesses have popped-up selling religious soft toys aimed at parents of children aged under 10.
Hindu-origin parents are the business brains behind many of the brands, hoping to maximise sales in the run up to Diwali, the festival of lights which is on 4 November this year.

Catch 'em young before they learn to think!
I've wondered whether indians still believe in the hindu gods. I don't know much about their religion but when you have a picture or a statue of a god, one that has an elephant head, another that has many arms, another guy who is blue skinned, it removes the mystery.
Where did those drawings come from?
Someone should do a poll on indians who have moved to western countries.
The imageless jewish god at least has that mystery. The christian heaven is a mystery.
The soul and spirit.... again a mystery. What is it? How does it work? What does it look like?
