Neohumanist Education (NHE) is based on the holistic philosophy of Neohumanism. At its core, Neohumanism is ”the practice of love for all creation including plants, animals and the inanimate world.” This universal love leads to a deep appreciation for the ecology of our planet, sustainable living, and a just social and economic structure. Neohumanism was introduced and developed by the Indian philosopher Shrii P.R. While firmly rooted in the philosophy and principles of Neohumanism, NHE's methodology is flexible, creative, and culturally sensitive. Neohumanism honors the unity in diversity that is the sum of human consciousness. This has important implications for the way classrooms and curricula can be structured. At NHE schools and institutes, all aspects of one’s personality are developed, based on a layered understanding of human consciousness - physical, mental, emotional, intellectual, aesthetic, and spiritual. The integrated curriculum empowers the student to know oneself and develop the confidence, integrity, self-discipline, and empathy to utilize knowledge for serving society.
