Indian Jews - A Breath of Fresh Air
Probably the most ancient Jewish community in the world and may be part of the
'Ten Lost tribes'.  Divided into three distinct entities, these ancient exotic groups
never experienced anti-Semitism and absorbed many of the local customs and
manners without assimilating. The secret of Indian tolerance is the Hindu attitude
to diversity of religious belief. Today the community is small but its heritage is
colourful, different and exciting.
