'''Neohumanism''' ''(logo pictured)'' is a holistic philosophical theory elaborated by [[Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar]] in his 1982 seminal work, ''[[The Liberation of Intellect: Neohumanism]]''. With neohumanism, Sarkar redefines both humanity and humanism, as well as various commonly associated concepts. In addition, Sarkar introduces many new concepts intended to facilitate both individual and collective progress.  In this philosophy [[Neohumanism#Universalism|universalism]] plays a central role. If humanism tends to only cover the human dimension in a human-centric view, neohumanism, according to Sarkar, is instead the elevation of humanism to universalism.
'''[[Ananda Marga]]''' ([[Roman Sanskrit]]: Ánanda Márga, Sanskrit: {{lang|sa|आनन्द मार्ग}} ''{{IAST|ānanda mārga}}'' "The Path of Bliss", also spelled ''Anand Marg'' and ''Ananda Marg'') is the comprehensive spiritual path (set of spiritually based or spiritually oriented practices) prescribed by [[Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar]] aka Shrii Shrii Anandamurti.


The theory of neohumanism was formally introduced by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar in 1982. However, much of his earlier writings, notably Ananda Vanii Samgraha (1956-1990) and Human Society Part 1 (1959), contained elements that foreshadowed neohumanism.
Just as the [[wikipedia:Noble Eightfold Path|eight-fold path of Buddhism]] is inspired by what Buddhists refer to as the [[wikipedia:Four Noble Truths|Four Noble Truths]], Ananda Marga is also guided by a well-developed conceptual framework. This is set out in the five chapters of Sarkar's [[Ananda Sutram]]. In philosophical terms, the stance of Ananda Marga is best described as ''advaetadvaetádvaetaváda'' (non-dualistic dualistic non-dualism). Originally and ultimately, everything is the singular consciousness.

In practical terms, the stance of Ananda Marga is rational and pragmatic. Ananda Marga rejects dogma and ritualistic worship, including religious prayer, in favor of subjective approach through objective adjustment. To enhance devotion (love for the Supreme), Ananda Marga prescribes various yogic and tantric practices for physical, mental, and spiritual development, which Sarkar encapsulated in his [[Ananda Marga#Discipline|Sixteen Points]].
