All 19th-Century Hindu Reform Organizations

19th-Century Hindu Reform Organizations groups two 19th-century Hindu socioreligious reform organizations recorded in this atlas: the Brahmo Samaj and the Arya Samaj. Wikipedia's article on Hindu reform movements explains that contemporary groups, collectively termed Hindu reform movements, reform Hinduism, neo-Hinduism, or Hindu revivalism, strive to introduce regeneration and reform to Hinduism, both in a religious or spiritual and in a societal sense, and that the movements started appearing during the Bengali Renaissance. The Brahmo Samaj, founded in Bengal, and the Arya Samaj, founded later in the same reforming current, are both treated in the article's own account of that broader movement, each pursuing reform of ritual practice, scripture and social custom within a Hindu framework rather than conversion away from it. This group node gathers their founding events under the shared kind-of-event facet; reform episodes recorded elsewhere in this atlas from other traditions and eras are left for their own classification.
