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. | The theory of neohumanism was formally introduced by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar in 1982.

Sarkar was not only a theoretician but also a pragmatist. Throughout the course of his lifetime, both his writings and his foundations evince a high degree of consistency. Hence, many of the organizations and programs that he set up, not just subsequent but also prior to 1982, reflected and promoted the concepts of neohumanism. | Sarkar was not only a theoretician but also a pragmatist. Throughout the course of his lifetime, both his writings and his foundations evince a high degree of consistency. Hence, many of the organizations and programs that he set up, not just subsequent but also prior to 1982, reflected and promoted the concepts of neohumanism. According to neohumanism, love for the Supreme (devotion) is the highest and most valuable treasure of humanity. It automatically results in universalism. However, neohumanism deems devotion to be a very tender inner asset, frequently assailed by materialism and other onslaughts from the external world. To preserve this treasure, Sarkar submits neohumanism as a practical philosophy that provides a protective fence for devotion by (1) establishing harmony between the spiritual and material worlds (2) providing perennial inspiration for the onward march of society. | ||
