"This Universe is the patrimony of all living beings, because all are children of the same Cosmic Father. But the skylicking greed of man always tries to deprive his animal brothers of their right to live in accordance with their inborn instincts and natural wonts. The PCAP program is to bring world-wide consciousness among human beings, regarding the rights of the members of the animal and plant kingdom."[3]

AMGK "Ananda Marga Gurukula" Ananda Marga Gurukula[4][5] was founded by P.R. Sarkar in order to build Ananda Marga University with its headquarters at Anandanagar, Purulia district (India) and to bring together the entire neohumanist education movement under its overall academic guidance and direction. The educational network of Gurukula now runs over 1000 schools in India and other continents.

Ánanda Márga Gurukula (AMGK) is engaged in creating a worldwide network of Neo-humanist Schools and Institutes to hasten the advent of a society in which there is love, peace, understanding, inspiration, justice and health for all.[6] Reflecting the broadness of Sarkar’s universal vision, AMGK has become a multi-faceted organization, with different branches dedicated to the upliftment of humanity through education, relief, welfare, the arts, ecology, intellectual renaissance, women's emancipation, and humanistic economy. All these institutions are based on neo-humanist educational philosophy.

In 1990, the Ananda Marga "Education Relief and Welfare Section" (ERAWS), which grew to a global network of about 1,000 neo-humanist schools and institutes, culminated in the founding of the Ananda Marga Gurukula University, with links to several hundred self-reliant eco-village projects ("Master Units") throughout the world. AMGK is actively engaged in the following projects:

  • building an educational township at Anandanagar, West Bengal, India, on a 525 square kilometre campus;
  • supporting the building of a global eco-village network (Master Units), ranging from 5 acri (20 000 m²) to 1 000 acri (4,0 km²) each, in over 120 countries.

Il 9 January, Sarkar inaugura ufficialmente l'Ananda Marga Pracharaka Samgha ("Organizazzione per Propagare il Sentiero della Beatitudine"). Sarkar precisa che lo scopo dell'organizzazione è basato su un duplice ideale: "liberazione del sè spirituale ed il Servizio all'umanità.[8] Nella stessa data nella Rampur colony di Jamalpur, si svolse il primo Dharma Maha Cakra (una cerimonia spirituale nella quale i discepoli praticano la meditazione in presenza del Maestro che tiene un importante discorso spirituale ed esegue un particolare Mudra chiamato Varabaja Mudra). Dal 15 al 28 Marzo venne creato a Jamalpur il primo gruppo di acharya. Furono pubblicati i primi volumi delle opere di Sarkar[9], inclusi Ananda Marga Elementary Philosophy[10], e Problems of the Day.[11]

1961 Sarkar condensa l'intera filosofia dell'Ananda Marga in 85 Aforismi composti in Sanscrito in un libro intitolato Ananda Sutram ("Aforismi sulla Beatitudine")[18] ("Aforismi che conducono ad ananda, beatitudine"). Il libro contiene concetti originali di metafisica, epistemologia, etica e macrostoria.[19]
1962 Sarkar crea un ordine di monaci e monache (asceti rinuncianti o acharya) e di centri di addestramento ("training centers" o Prashiksana Matha) in varie parti del mondo: Ydrefors (Svezia)[2], Davao (Filippine), Varanasi e Bangalore (India) e Ghana (Africa). Questi ácáryas sono fulltimers e lavorano a tempo pieno per la missione. Tra questi i più giovani sono chiamati brahmachariis (maschi) e brahmacariniis (femmine), sono vestiti con una divisa color zafferano in alto e bianca in basso, mentre i seniors, conosciuti col nome di avadhuta (maschile) e avadhutika (femminile), sono vestiti con una divisa tutta di color zafferano.
1963 Viene fondata la sezione ERAWS dell'Ananda Marga ("Educazione Education, Soccorso Relief e benessere Welfare per le donne Women). Le attività di servizio come quelle nelle scuole, negli orfanotrofi e nei centri di soccorso vengono da ora in poi gestite da ERAWS. Ananda Marga registra il suo quartier generale ad Anandanagar, Bengala occidentale.
1964 Viene istituito l'"Ananda Marga Board of Education" (il Settore dell'Educazione).
1965 The Women’s Welfare Department (WWD)[20] and the Ananda Marga Universal Relief Team (AMURT) were started. AMURT is now an international NGO with many teams very active in the areas affected by natural disasters.[21][22][23]

1969 The first Ananda Marga New York Sectoral office (whose jurisdiction is North and Central America and the Caribbean) was opened in Carbondale, Illinois, USA.[24][25]
1971 Sarkar was arrested and imprisoned pending trial for allegedly conspiring to murder several former members of the organization.[26] Under a declared opposition from the Indian government, Sarkar received life sentence (Barker 1989: 168), which was overturned in a re-trial in 1978. Sarkar claimed that on February 12, 1973 he was poisoned while in Bankipur Central Jail, Patna.[27][28] His demand for a judicial investigation in his poisoning was, however, not granted by the authorities and consequently he started fasting April 1, 1973 on a daily glass of yoghurt water until his release, five years and four months later.[29]

La maggioranza delle sue scuole in India vengono chiuse e numeroi monaci e membri dell'organizzazione arrestati. Questa situazione unitamente alla detenzione ingiusta ed al presunto avvelenamento di Sarkar in prigione (cosa che crea gravissimi di problemi di salute a Sarkar, intaccando temporaneamente anche la sua vista) porta ad una forte campagna di protesta da parte dei membri delll'Ananda Marga. Alcuni membri dell'organizzazione, andando contro gli insegnamenti del loro maestro, si danno fuoco per protesta[30][31].
1977 Viene fondata la sezione "Prevenzione della crudeltà contro animali e piante" ("Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and Plants") (PCAP)[2].
1978 Three members of the organization were found guilty of conspiring to murder the Indian High Commissioner in London the previous year and were sentenced to a total of 12 years.[32] On July 4, after the end of the emergency period in India, Sarkar's conviction was overturned on appeal and he was exonerated of all charges.[33]
1979 Sarkar traveled overseas, invited by practitioners of Ananda Marga from various countries. In April, he was banned from entering the USA by the State Department, due to having spoken out against corruption in the government of India. He instead went to Jamaica in September for a gathering of Ananda Marga practitioners in North and Central America.[34]
1982 Sarkar introduced the philosophy of Neohumanism[35] and several volumes on philology. Throughout his life he gave thousands of speeches on various themes which were further transcribed and published by his disciples. The topics included spiritual philosophy, cosmology, history, anthropology, bio-psychology, farming, naturopathy, education, socioeconomic liberation, and other literary works. He also began to compose what later would comprise of 5,018 songs collectively called Prabhata Samgiita (Songs of the New Dawn).
1986 Sarkar began to propound the theory of Microvita, small, subtle entities which he said are the foundation of all existence. Research on the field has begun by the Microvita Research Institute, but their progress and findings are still in the developmental stage.
1990 Sarkar found Ananda Marga Gurukula on September 7. Sarkar died on 21 October at 3:10 pm. Acarya Shraddhananda Avadhuta was elected from the body of purodhas as President of the Ananda Marga global organization and Purodha Pramukha. He served in that capacity until his death in 2008.
1991 Ananda Marga Universal Relief Team received recognition as an NGO by the United Nations.

Three weeks prior to the attack, one of the plotters had thrown a brick through the window of the New Bond Street office of Air India. The attached note called on Moraji Desai, the current Indian Prime Minister, to release Sarkar or he will have "blood on his hands". The initial plan was to shoot the High Commissioner in his car, but this was abandoned for security reasons. On the next attempt, they decided to stab the Commission's commercial counsellor, but that also failed when the would-be assassin could not go through with the attack. Finally, one of the other plotters stabbed a junior Indian government employee, when he was mistaken for the commercial counsellor. The victim suffered a punctured lung and internal bleeding, but recovered with medical help. See Birmingham Evening Mail, Saturday, November 4, 1978
