Ananda Sutram is the basic scripture of modern Yoga composed in Sanskrit by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti (1921-1990) in the year 1961. In the best traditions of sutra literature, the sutras (eighty-five in number), serve with breathtaking conciseness, as a framework for the entire Ananda Marga ideology. Ananda Sutram means, in part, "aphorisms leading to ananda, divine bliss". The sutra form has been valued over the centuries as a powerful tool for communicating a deep philosophy in a condensed, memorable way. Herein Shrii Shrii Anandamurti has presented humanity with original concepts of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and macrohistory. He has set out a socio-economic approach conceived in the light of a theistic philosophy, blending subjective approach with objective adjustment, offering the world a progressive social system based on social and economic justice. It consists of five chapters describing the universe, the mind, the spirit and the foundations of a healthy society.
