socio-religious reform movements

Socio-religious reform movements are efforts to improve society by promoting moral, ethical, and spiritual values rooted in religious principles. They seek to address social issues like inequality, caste discrimination, gender inequality, and outdated customs by encouraging modern education, social justice, and ethical behavior. These movements often arise to reconcile religious traditions with contemporary ideas of human rights and progress, aiming to create more just and equitable communities. Examples include movements like the Brahmo Samaj and Arya Samaj in India, which worked to reform social practices while emphasizing spiritual renewal.
