'''Neohumanism''' 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.
'''Kiirtan''' (or ''kiirtana'') nowadays is typically the chanting out loud of a specially empowered [[:wikipedia:Mantra|mantra]], an 8-syllabled ''siddha mantra'' (perfect incantation). In [[Ananda Marga]], the mantra used is '''''Bábá náma kevalam'''''. The language is [[Roman Samskrta transliteration|Saḿskrta]]. The meaning is: Only the name of the Dearest One, only the name of [[Parama Purusa|Parama Puruśa]].


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.
