SUMMARY:Sectorial Conference Spring 2026
DESCRIPTION:中文版 \nDesigning a Future That Works for Everyone: Exploring PROUT\n“In the field of spirituality there cannot be any complex\, but there are complexes due to social defects. It is our spiritual duty to rectify the social order. If we fail\, there may not be good spiritualists.” \n– Shrii Shrii Ánandamúrti \n  \nMessage from Sectorial Secretary\nNamaskár dear Márgii brothers and sisters\, \nI am very glad to invite you to the Hong Kong Sector Sectorial Conference\, to be held at Ánanda Suruci MU\, Taiwan\, from 3-5 April 2026. \nThe theme of the conference is “Designing a Future That Works for Everyone: Exploring PROUT.” \nToday\, human society is facing many challenges inequality\, conflict\, and confusion are increasing-and humanity is longing for a path grounded in bliss\, compassion\, and spirituality. PROUT offers a balanced economic system and a vision of a world in which every being can flourish in the spirit of Neo-Humanism. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n \nAs Ánanda Márgiis\, it is our duty to translate these ideals into daily action-serving communities\, uplifting the neglected\, empowering youth\, protecting the environment\, and becoming living examples of Dharma. \nTaiwan and Hong Kong Sector\, with it’s unique challenges and beautiful spiritual potential\, provide a powerful place to begin this transformation. \nLet us come together to discuss how we can serve the world more courageously and collectively in accordance with PROUT\, and how we can nurture new hope for a new age and a new human society. May Bábá guide all of us to become instruments of His mission-building a new human society\, welfare for all\, and happiness for all. \nWith Love in Him \nÁc.
