ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this article, the focus will be on the worship of tress in Hinduism in both a textual historical and a contemporary perspective. A main argument is that the worship of trees is a central part of most forms of Hinduism regardless of time and place, and also that it has contemporary and global appeal in the so-called eco-dharma movement. DANSK RESUME: Denne artikel vil fokusere på tilbedelsen af træer i hinduisme i både et teksthistorisk og et nutidigt perspektiv. Et hovedargument er, at dyrkelsen eller tilbedelsen af træer er en central del af de fleste former for hinduisme uafhængigt af tid og sted, og også at det har nutidig og global appeal i en såkaldt øko-dharma bevægelse.

Abstract:
In shaping the Indian identity and Indian literature Hinduism has played a central role it has been a treasure trove of diverse cultural expressions. The perceptions and interpretations of Hinduism of Indian poets offer unique understanding into the complexities and fine points of Indianness. The present study aims to explore how poets in Indian literature have presented Hinduism, suppling a deep insight of the religion's influence on the Indian psyche. The present study delves into the exploration of "Indianness" in Indian literature by the lens of Hinduism's profusive influence. Indian literature topography reflects a unique amalgamation of languages, religions, traditions, and perspectives, contributing to the heterogenous cultural identity of the nation. The present study investigates the significant influence of Hinduism on poetry during focusing Bhakti Movement. It delves into the works of Bhakti saints i.e. Kabir, Mirabai, Surdas, and Tulsidas, whose verses revolutionized the depicted Hinduism by spotlighting a personal and emotional connection with the divine. The expressions of love, devotion, and spirituality by Bhakti poets resonate with the core values of Hinduism, jubilation the timeless essence of "Indianness" and the cultural values of India. Moreover, the present study analyses modern Indian poetry with its continued inspiration of Hindu themes. Modern Poets such as Swami Vivekananda, Rabindranath Tagore, and Kamala Das comprised Hindu philosophical concepts, deities, and rituals to explore the complexities of human emotions and spiritual truths. Their verses represented the enduring role of Hinduism in shaping the spiritual essence that weaves together modern India, which highlights the universal enchantment of Hindu spirituality and its contribution to the Indian literature. Eventually, the present study reveals Hinduism's influence on Indian literature which transcends time and space, reflection of interconnectedness of culture, spirituality, and the soul of the nation. The picture of "Indianness" in Indian literature applauds the rich cultural heritage, inclusivity, and pluralism of nation, and offering profound understanding into the enduring spiritual values that maintain to inspire generations of readers.

AbstractThis article reflects on some of the methodological issues pertaining to situations in which both instructor and students belong to the same religious tradition as that about which the course is taught. It is framed within questions of scholarly objectivity and privilege to represent religious traditions. In a political atmosphere in which it has become increasingly suspect for "Outsiders" to teach traditions that they do not personally confess, this article engages the reverse scenario: what pedagogical challenges confront the professor who is an "Insider" to the tradition she teaches?

Abstract:
The use of labels such as ‘isolation’ or ‘assimilation’ to characterise tribal communities dwelling in the plains region of British Assam had a discursive history that took no notice of the region’s prolonged tradition of vibrant interfaith transmissions and cultural exchanges. This essay flags a disjuncture between early ethnographic literature on the ‘tribes’ of the plains region of Assam, and their later enumeration in census data from the middle of the 19th century. While census makers in Assam attributed an ‘unusual’ surge in the number of Hindus to proselytisation by Vaishnavite and Brahman priests, and to the erosion of tribal modes of worship, this article argues that colonial enumerative practices were directly imbricated in producing the ‘Hindu’ in a way that was transformative of quotidian relations and processes of exchange characterising the region. The political pressure to possess fixed and singular identities and the growing rhetoric of a muscular Hinduism symbolised by renewed interest in Indological studies, combined to enhance Hinduism’s prestige and symbolic value. Becoming a Hindu was easier now that the definition of Hinduism as a loosely bound corpus of ritually coded behaviour enabled a wide array of practices to be labelled as ‘Hindu’.

Abstract:
Hinduism in Indonesia has been embraced in various ways. In addition to individual adoption, the conversion to Hinduism has also be performed through religious groups, which later develop by adjusting the local customs. The distinction between one adherent to another is essentially unified by the same theology. Panca Sraddha is one of the binders of Buddhis’ belief to Brahman, Atman, Karmaphala, Punarbhawa or Samsara, and Moksa. By utilizing this similarity, people who belong to Hinduism in Indonesia can live in harmony with other fellow Hindus as well as other religious communities, including Indonesian "indigenous religion" followers. Taking the fact into account; however, there are some Sampradaya or spiritual groups which aim to study the religion deeply by making the Vedic scriptures as the only source of the teachings which might lead them into certain challenging situations in terms of living in harmonious life. The problematic situations were addressed through this qualitative research, which employed interviews, observations, as well as document analysis as source of data. This study concludes that the three religious spiritual groups in Hinduism described in this article are now well-welcomed as an integral part of Indonesian Hindus and members of community in general, although they initially have been rejected at the beginning of their development. In keeping harmony among religious believers, these three spiritual groups, Hare Krishna, Sai Baba, and Brahma Kumaris are actively managing pleasant relations with the Indonesian government, Hindu councils, traditional Hindus, and other religious communities. They have performed strategies of dialogue, cooperation, and social service through humanitarian activities based on love and universal values.

Abstract:
Abstract Immigrating to New York City presents new issues for Indo--Guyanese, especially as many find themselves in lower class positions while navigating a racial structure distinct from Guyana. A subset of these Indo--Guyanese Americans, particularly middle class women as well as the 1.5-- and second generation, believes Guyanese Hinduism, the forms of Hinduism adapted to the Guyanese context, must adapt again to continue to be relevant to the community in their new home. Central to their call is questioning the religious authority of pandits. As I will discuss, pandits occupy a powerful position in Guyanese Hindu community that extends beyond the religious sphere. The key to their authority lies in their ability and skill to read and interpret Hindu scripture. However, I argue the realities of migration have resulted in a questioning of religious authority and how pandits read these texts. With some Guyanese Hindus uncertain of the reliability of their pandit’s reading of scriptural text, there is a desire to engage in a Hinduism untainted by the biases of pandits. The presumed truth held within Hindu scripture has inspired some devotees to return to the text or rather to engage the text on their own for the first time. As a result, new reading practices are appearing within the community, which encourages Guyanese Hindus to craft a Hinduism that will serve them.

Abstract:
The 21st century global business environment is more diverse and interconnected than ever before. As organizations continue to expand their global reach, business professionals often find themselves having to navigate challenging cultural and religious terrain, which they may not be prepared for. While it is impossible for business professionals to learn the intricacies of all cultures and religions throughout the world, one can seek to learn about some of the more prominent cultures and religions of the world – particularly those they have a high likelihood of engaging with at some point in business. This paper examines Hinduism, a prevalent religion throughout many parts of the world, and discusses how its culture and beliefs are manifested through Hindu business practices. Particular focus is placed on business in India, the country with the largest number of Hindus. The purpose of this paper is to provide business professionals with a basic understanding of the history of Hinduism, an overview of the major beliefs of Hindus, and present information that will assist business professionals in successfully navigating intercultural affairs when doing business with Hindus in India and around the world.

Abstract:
Undervisningen i skolan kan vara utformad på många olika sätt. I vissa fall fungerar läromedel som grunden i undervisningen, i andra fall används läromedel som endast en utgångspunkt vars kärna fördjupas med andra användbara medel. Var man än placerar läromedlets position inom klassrummets ramar är dess användning närvarande på ett eller annat sätt. Det finns därmed ett stort antal elever i den svenska skolan som kommer i kontakt med lärobokstexter. Kunskapsinhämtningen som eleverna gör ger dem perspektiv på vår omvärld. Vilka dessa perspektiv blir beror på hur läroboksförfattarna väljer att utforma sina texter. De svenska läroplanerna förespråkar en tolerant och allsidig undervisning. Den kunskap som finns att hämta i läromedel bör därmed också följa samma linje. I denna studie undersöks läromedlens innehåll inom religionsämnet, riktade till gymnasiet, med en avgränsning till hinduism. Fokus riktas mot huruvida beskrivningarna är värderande eller allsidiga. Detta innehåll ställs också i jämförelse med läroplaners riktlinjer för skolans verksamhet. Med hjälp av en diskursanalytisk utgångspunkt har resultatet visat att de undersökta läromedlen över tid har förändrats till innehållet. Beskrivningar med fokus på jämförelser mellan hinduism och ”vi i västerlandet” har övergått till att fler paralleller istället dras globalt där läromedelsförfattarna försöker hitta likheter. Dessa förändringar har också visat på att läroplanerna tagits i beaktande av läromedelsförfattarna vilket har resulterat i att innehållet i läromedlen över tid hamnat alltmer i linje med läroplanerna. Utifrån dessa resultat dras slutsatsen att lärare behöver vara medvetna om att läromedel inte alltid visar en allsidig version av de kunskaper som finns. Med denna insikt kan läraren utveckla sin undervisning genom att visa på fler perspektiv och på så vis också utveckla sina elevers kunskaper och vyer.

Abstract:
This dissertation is an ethnographic study of how members of the Indo-Guyanese community traveled from Guyana to New York City, carrying with them distinct understandings of Hinduism informed by their multiple dislocations and how they utilize religion as ideology and practice to help cultivate their identities as Indo-Guyanese Americans. I argue religion as a mobile concept, what I have termed as ‘religion on the move,’ gives a theoretical frame to understand how devotees adapt religion to help them navigate their identities in unknown territories. By studying more than devout individuals in places of worship, I have followed Caribbean Hinduism and Indo-Guyanese Hindus in New York City to various sites to appreciate how religion informs their experiences, operates on different scales (spatially, politically, and temporally), and negotiates power structures. I found that the Indo-Guyanese Hindu community asserts their ethnicity through Caribbean Hinduism to become visible, to overcome marginalization and to claim belonging in the United States.

Resumo: A tese tem como temática a presença indiana (hindu) em Moçambique. Os indianos não estão ausentes dos estudos sobre o país, embora não ocupem um lugar central nas análises. Nestes estudos os indianos são tematizados em suas relações com o Estado. A família indiana (hindu) não foi objeto de estudo, embora tenha sido associada ao sistema de castas e ao hinduísmo. Nesta pesquisa, na cidade moçambicana de Inhambane, junto a aproximadamente 40 Casas hindus, observou-se que também os não indianos (hindus) urbanos consideram que a família hindu pode ser explicada por sua relação com o sistema de castas e o hinduísmo e, assim concebida, é pensada como um mecanismo que reproduz os indianos como endógamos e racistas. A tese critica a coincidência entre o discurso acadêmico e o senso comum urbano moçambicano a respeito da família indiana (hindu) por meio da descrição da dinâmica da reprodução dos seus laços familiares. Na descrição das práticas de cozinhar, adorar e fazer negócios enfatiza-se os processos que dão conta da atualização das Casas hindus em Moçambique
Abstract: This thesis has as its theme the Indian (Hindu) presence in Mozambique. This Indians are not absent in the studies about the country, although they are not central in these analysis. In these studies, the Indians are approached in their relations with the State. The Indian (Hindu) family has not been object of studies, though it has been associated with the caste system and the Hinduism. In the field-work, held in the Mozambican town of Inhambane, on approximately 40 Hindu houses, it was noticed that also the non-Indian urban population think that the Hindu family is explainable by its relation to the caste system and Hinduism and, for being conceived in this manner, it is thought of as the mechanism that reproduces the Indians population as endogamous and racist. The thesis criticizes the similarities between the scholar thinking and the common sense on the Indian (Hindu) family by describing the reproduction dynamics of their family bonds. In the description of the practices of cooking, worshiping and doing businesses, the processes that update the Hindu Houses in Mozambique are emphasized.

Abstract:
Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom en fallstudie undersöka hur grundskoleelever uppfattar Indien och hinduism. Detta har undersökts genom en analys av resultatet utifrån postkoloniala teorier om orientalism. Jag har även försökt återknyta detta resultat till hur undervisningen i skolan vad gäller Indien och hinduism ser ut. Mitt urval och tillvägagångssätt består av 10 elevintervjuer och 1 lärarintervju. För att uppnå syftet har jag utgått från ett antal teoretiska utgångspunkter som hör orientalismen till, såsom: Eurocentrism, Den Andre, exotism, Västerlandet och vi-och-dem. Undersökningen visar att informanterna till stor del har en väldigt enkel och onyanserad bild av Indien och hinduism. Till viss del stämmer de orientalistiska begreppen in på informanternas uppfattning, däremot finns det knappt några spår av nedsättande värderingar som annars genomsyrar ett eurocentriskt synsätt. Informanternas uppfattning om undersökningsområdet bygger mycket på det som lärts ut i skolan och återspeglar väl det undervisade stoffet.

Abstract:
Motivated by social inclusion, lesbian and gay communities have long attempted to negotiate languages and connected discourses. Social ascriptions act to oppress these communities, thus grounding Cameron’s (1985) Feminism and Linguistic theory. This practice of language negotiation significantly intensifies in regions where religious piety (Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism, Islam) interacts with rigid social structure (Confucianism, Interdependency), mediating social and cultural positioning. Consequently, members of LG communities build linguistic affordances, thus (re)positioning selves so to negotiate ascribed identities and marginalizations. Paradoxically, these communities model discourses and dynamics of larger sociocultural networks, so as to contest marginalizations, thus repositioning self and other. Through a comparative framework, the current study employs ethnography, as well as conversation and discourse analyses, of LG communities, to explore ways in which these communities in Seoul (Seoul) develop and employ adroit language practices to struggle within social spaces, and to contest positivist ascriptions.

Abstract:
Sanskrit is considered by many devout Hindus and global consumers of yoga alike to be an inspirational, divine, ‘language of the gods’. For 2000 years, at least, this middle Indo-Aryan language has endured in a post-vernacular state, due, principally, to its symbolic capital as a liturgical language. This presentation focuses on my almost decade-long research into the theo-political implications of reviving Sanskrit, and includes an explication of data derived from fieldwork in ‘Sanskrit-speaking’ communities in India, as well as analyses of the language sections of the 2011 census; these were only released in July 2018. While the census data is unreliable, for many reasons, but due mainly to the fact that the results are self reported, the towns, villages, and districts most enamored by Sanskrit will be shown. The hegemony of the Brahminical orthodoxy quite often obfuscates the structural inequalities inherent in the hierarchical varṇa-jātī system of Hinduism. While the Indian constitution provides the opportunity for groups to speak, read/write, and to teach the language of their choice, even though Sanskrit is afforded status as a scheduled (i.e. recognised language that is offered various state-sponsored benefits) language, the imposition of Sanskrit learning on groups historically excluded from access to the Sanskrit episteme urges us to consider how the issue of linguistic human rights and glottophagy impact on less prestigious and unscheduled languages within India’s complex linguistic ecological area where the state imposes Sanskrit learning. The politics of representation are complicated by the intimate relationship between consumers of global yoga and Hindu supremacy. Global yogis become ensconced in a quite often ahistorical, Sanskrit-inspired thought-world. Through appeals to purity, tradition, affect, and authority, the unique way in which the Indian state reconfigures the logic of neoliberalism is to promote cultural ideals, like Sanskrit and yoga, as two pillars that can possibly create a better world via a moral and cultural renaissance. However, at the core of this political theology is the necessity to speak a ‘pure’ form of Sanskrit. Yet, the Sanskrit spoken today, even with its high and low registers, is, ultimately, various forms of hybrids influenced by the substratum first languages of the speakers. This leads us to appreciate that the socio-political components of reviving Sanskrit are certainly much more complicated than simply getting people to speak, for instance, a Sanskritised register of Hindi.

Abstract:
As the title itself shows, the subject of this paper is not the question of euthanasia in all possible aspects and as a whole. It is only about some segments of that problem. It seems to us, however, the more significant one, because they basically touch the very essence of the question - man's relationship to himself, to his life in all its forms and phases of existence - from birth to death. Equivalent to that, it is insisted that this, very complicated problem with its specific content, i.e. sensitive nature, evokes and provokes lively debates about the bioethical and legal permissibility of "death with dignity". This is, therefore, the plane in the consideration of "mercy killing" where we are faced with numerous contradictions and disputes, inconsistencies and vagueness, imprecise and confused comments... Passing it through the historical prism, the author points out that only "footnotes" were presented in the large to the text of various theoretical positions on the indicated issue (if we want to see it in all its indicated lines). In this context, the Christian religion, more precisely, all types of Christianity (Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox), declare against any form of euthanasia. And all major world religions, from Islam, through Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism and others. oppose this practice of ending life. Our initial position is that, as things stand today, there will be a significant shift in this regard. Even if we are able to reach a solution in this work, to come to the right knowledge, such an effort, once we have already agreed to it, will hopefully open some new perspectives, perhaps illuminate the problem from a different perspective, and offer new possibilities solving the mentioned, very complex and difficult dilemmas that arise in connection with the termination of life out of mercy and compassion.

Abstract:
Banyuwangi is a highly unique and dyamic locality. Situated in between several ‘giants’ traditionally known as centres of culture and tourism, that is, Bali to the east, larger Java to the west, Borneo to the north, and Alas Purwo forest to the south, Banyuwangi is a hub for culture and metaphysical attention, but has, over the past few decades, become a focus of poltical disourse, in Indonesia. Its cultural and spiritual practices are renowned throughout both Indonesia and Southeast Asia, yet Banyuwangi seems quite content to conceal many of its cosmological practices, its spirituality and connected cultural and language dynamics. Here, a binary constructed by the national government between institutionalized religions (Hinduism, Islam and at times Chritianity) and the liminalized Animism, Kejawen, Ruwatan and the occult, supposedly leading to ‘witch hunts,’ have increased the cultural significance of Banyuwangi. Yet, the construction of this binary has intensifed the Osing community’s affiliation to religious spiritualistic heritage, ultimately encouraging the Osing community to stylize its religious and cultural symbolisms as an extensive set of sequenced annual rituals. The Osing community has spawned a culture of spirituality and religion, which in Geertz’s terms, is highly syncretic, thus reflexively complexifying the symbolisms of the community, and which continue to propagate their religion and heritage, be in internally. These practices materialize through a complex sequence of (approximately) twelve annual festivals, comprising performance and language in the form of dance, food, mantra, prayer, and song. The study employs a theory of frames (see work by Bateson, Goffman) to locate language and visual symbolisms, and to determine how these symbolisms function in context. This study and presentation draw on a several yaer ethnography of Banyuwangi, to provide an insight into the cultural and lingusitic symbolisms of the Osing people in Banyuwangi. The study first documets these sequenced rituals, to develop a map of the symbolic underpinnings of these annually sequenced highly performative rituals. Employing a symbolic interpretive framework, and including discourse analysis of both language and performance, the study utlimately presents that the Osing community continuously, that is, annually, reinvigorates its comples clustering of religious andn cultural symbols, which are layered and are in flux with overlapping narratives, such as heritage, the national poltical and the transnational.

Abstract:
The present study examines mutual perception and relational strategies of the Hindu and Muslim groups in the cultural context of India by focusing on religion-based “othering.” A sample of 264 participants belonging to Hindu and Muslim groups was studied in Varanasi City. An instrument developed and used in an international project was adapted and given to participants (age range 20–60 years) for measuring their relational strategies, mutual perceptions and perceived discriminations. The findings revealed the ‘Coexistence’ relational strategy to be strongly placed in both Muslim and Hindu participants. Both ‘Integration’ and ‘Assimilation’ strategies were stronger in Muslim participants than in Hindu participants. Hindus preferred the ‘Separation’ strategy, perceived greater discrimination and held less positive views of Muslims. The findings are discussed along with their implications for dealing with the problem of Hindu-Muslim relationships in India.

Abstract:
Indijas un Pakistānas konflikts par Kašmīru ilgst jau vairāk nekā 70 gadu, taču joprojām nav atrisināts. Tēma ir aktuāla, jo Pakistāna, atbalstot Kašmīras musulmaņus un ideju par “Islāma valsts” izveidi Kašmīrā, veicina transnacionālā terorisma izplatību Kašmīrā un musulmaņu ietekmi ārpus tās robežām. Kašmīras hinduistu masveida migrācija 1990. gadā, Kargilas karš 1999. gadā, uzbrukums Uri 2016. gadā un uzbrukums Pulvamas rajonā 2019. gadā ir tikai daži piemēri, kā transnacionālā terorisma izplatība Kašmīrā ir ietekmējusi konflikta virzību un abu valstu attiecības. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt transnacionālo teroristisko organizāciju izmantotās stratēģijas, noskaidrojot kopīgos un atšķirīgos paņēmienus un metodes, kas tiek izmantoti organizāciju mērķu sasniegšanā Kašmīras konfliktā. Lai iegūtu daudzpusīgu informācijas analīzi, izmantotas kvantitatīvās un kvalitatīvās pētījumu metodes. Rezultātā iegūti unikāli dati un statistika par transnacionālajām organizācijām, kas mīt Kašmīrā, kā arī par to izmantotajām metodēm.

Abstract:
This article addresses an issue of growing political importance: the global rise of civilizational populism. From Western Europe to India and Pakistan, and from Indonesia to the Americas, populists are increasingly linking national belonging with civilizational identity—and at times to the belief that the world is divided into religion-based civilizations, some of which are doomed to clash with one another. As part of this process, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity have all been commandeered by populist parties and movements, each adept at using the power of religion—in different ways and drawing on different aspects of religion—to define the boundary of concepts such as people, nation, and civilization.

Freedom of Religious Belief and People with Disabilities: A Case Study of People with Disabilities from Religious Minorities in Chennai, India. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), June 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/creid.2021.003.

Abstract:
India has a unique and complex religious history, with faith and spirituality playing an important role in everyday life. Hinduism is the majority religion, and there are many minority religions. India also has a complicated class system and entrenched gender structures. Disability is another important identity. Many of these factors determine people’s experiences of social inclusion or exclusion. This paper explores how these intersecting identities influence the experience of inequality and marginalisation, with a particular focus on people with disabilities from minority religious backgrounds. A participatory qualitative methodology was employed in Chennai, to gather case studies that describe in-depth experiences of participants. Our findings show that many factors that make up a person’s identity intersect in India and impact how someone is included or excluded by society, with religious minority affiliation, caste, disability status, and gender all having the potential to add layers of marginalisation. These various identity factors, and how individuals and society react to them, impact on how people experience their social existence. Identity factors that form the basis for discrimination can be either visible or invisible, and discrimination may be explicit or implicit. Despite various legal and human rights frameworks at the national and international level that aim to prevent marginalisation, discrimination based on these factors is still prevalent in India. While some tokenistic interventions and schemes are in place to overcome marginalisation, such initiatives often only focus on one factor of identity, rather than considering intersecting factors. People with disabilities continue to experience exclusion in all aspects of their lives. Discrimination can exist both between, as well as within, religious communities, and is particularly prevalent in formal environments. Caste-based exclusion continues to be a major problem in India. The current socioeconomic environment and political climate can be seen to perpetuate marginalisation based on these factors. However, when people are included in society, regardless of belonging to a religious minority, having a disability, or being a certain caste, the impact on their life can be very positive.

Howard, Joanna. Vulnerability and Poverty During Covid-19: Religious Minorities in India. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), November 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/creid.2021.014.

Full text
Abstract:
The Covid-19 pandemic has had direct and indirect effects on religiously marginalised groups, exacerbating existing inequities and undermining the ambitions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to reach (and include) those ‘furthest behind’. Religious inequalities intersect with other inequalities to compound vulnerabilities, particularly the convergence of low socioeconomic status, gender inequality, and location-specific discrimination and insecurity, to shape how people are experiencing the pandemic. This policy briefing, written by Dr Joanna Howard (IDS) and a co-author (who must remain anonymous for reasons of personal security), draws on research with religious minorities living in urban slums in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka states in India. Findings show that religiously motivated discrimination reduced their access to employment and statutory services during the pandemic. Harassment and violence experienced by Muslims worsened; and loss of livelihoods, distress, and despair were also acutely experienced by dalit Hindus. Government response and protection towards lower caste and religious minorities has been insufficient.

Abstract:
Muslims form the largest minority group in India, according to the 1991 census, constituting about 12 percent of the country's population. India has the second largest Muslim population in the world. The growth rate of the Muslim population in India during the last three decades is somewhat higher than the non-Muslim population. The present paper, based on a large sample survey carried out in Uttar Pradesh, India, compares the reproductive behavior of Hindus and Muslims. An attempt has been made to examine the determinants of their differential fertility and family planning behavior.
