The Hindu cultural and religious world responded in different ways that can be summarized in two fundamental attitudes, even if the range of variation is very wide. On the one hand, it responded with an opening to the West, considered a factor of positive influence, on the other, with a refusal of such an opening and a return to the origins.<\/p>\n<h4>Brahmo Samaj (Association of Brahman)<\/h4>\n<p>The first current of Hindu reform was developed in Bengal by Ram Mohan Roy (1772-1833).<\/p>\n<h4>Prarthana Samaj<\/h4>\n<p>The peculiar characteristic of the Prarthana Samaj, born almost as an emanation of the Brahmo Samaj, is a cult founded on the traditional poems of the Varkari Panth or Varkari Sampradaya, especially those of Tukaram.<\/p>\n<h4>Dev Samaj<\/h4>\n<p>Founded in 1887 by Shiv Narayan Agnihotri (1850-1909), a brahman from Uttar Pradesh, who had been member of Brahmo Samaj of Latore and had left it in 1886.<\/p>\n<h4>Arya Samaj<\/h4>\n<p>Founded in 1875 by the brahman Mul Sankara (Dayanand Sarasvati) (1824-1883).<\/p>\n<h4>Ramakrishna<\/h4>\n<p>Gadadhar Cattopadhyay (1836-1886), better known with the monastic name of Ramakrishna, was one of the most important Gurus and mystics of 19th century and is still revered today by millions over the world.<\/p>\n<h4>Vivekananda<\/h4>\n<p>Narendra Nath Datta (1863-1903), known with the name of Vivekananda, was born in 1863 in a religious family devoted to charity. Vivekananda can be defined, according to Klostermaier \u201cthe first modern hindu monk\u201d.<\/p>\n<h4>Ramakrshna Mission<\/h4>\n<p>Organisation founded in 1897 by Vivekananda and inspired by the figure of Ramakrishna, a great mystic overflowing with love for the Divine Mother.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;
