African Hindu Monastery

Hindu Monastery of Africa located at Odorkor in Greater Accra Region of Ghana. It is the first African hindu monastery and was established in 1975 by Swami Ghanananda.[1] A branch of the Hindu Monastery of Africa has been established in Togo.[2]

Swami Ghananand Saraswati has set up five temples in Ghana which have been the cornerstone of the African Hindu Monastery (AHM).[citation needed] The Indian community in Ghana participates in the AHM, but also has its own temples (most for the Sindhi community).[3]
