New Delhi: A new book titled “The Hindu Manifesto” by Swami Vigyananand is set to be released on April 26, 2025, offering a comprehensive vision for a just, prosperous, and harmonious society rooted in Hindu philosophical traditions. RSS Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat will release Swami Vigyananand’s ‘The Hindu Manifesto’ on April 26. The book is described as a blueprint for civilisational resurgence, grounded in ancient Indian texts like the Vedas, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Arthashastra, and Shukranitisar.
According to the publishers, The Hindu Manifesto outlines a framework that calls upon individuals and nations to embrace timeless Hindu principles for building strong societies and ethical governance structures. The book highlights eight key Sutras, or guiding principles, central to societal and national progress.
The first four Sutras emphasize economic prosperity, national security, quality education, and responsible democracy—pillars considered essential for creating a strong and resilient nation. The latter four focus on the cultural and spiritual sustainability of a society: respect for women, social harmony, environmental stewardship, and devotion to the motherland.
Inspired by the ideal of Ram Rajya, the book advocates ethical governance, equitable development, and the empowerment of women. It also calls for environmental preservation, viewing nature as sacred, and seeks to clear misconceptions around social concepts like Varna and Jati to foster unity and inclusion.
Swami Vigyananand, the author, is a monk, intellectual, and global Hindu thought leader. He has been instrumental in promoting Hindu values and networking through platforms like the World Hindu Congress and the World Hindu Economic Forum. With The Hindu Manifesto, he seeks to blend ancient wisdom with modern governance, offering a civilisational roadmap for ethical, inclusive development.
The book is expected to resonate with policymakers, scholars, spiritual leaders, and youth eager to contribute to a cultural and national renaissance inspired by Hindu thought.
