'''[[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.


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]].
