Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Prarthana Samaj, or also called "Prayer Society" in Sanskrit, is a movement for religious and social reform in Maharashtra based on previous reform movements and traditions of Maharashtra. The direct predecessor of the Prarthana Samaj in Mumbai was the Paramahamsa Sabha, a secret society for the furtherance of liberal ideas formed in 1849 by Ram Balkrishna Jaykar and others in Mumbai. It was secret in order to avoid the wrath of the powerful and orthodox elements of society. Meetings were for discussion, the singing of hymns, and the sharing of a communal meal prepared by a low-caste cook. Members ate bread baked by Christians and drank water brought by Moslems.Like the parallel Brahmo Samaj of Bengal, the Prarnatha Samaj represented an Indian response to European liberalism, including the ideals of rational or theistic belief and social reform. The Prarthana Samaj(ists) are followers of the great religious tradition of the Maratha Sant Mat like Namdev, Tukaram and Ramdas (the guru of Shivaji).
