2nd socio-economic principle of Prout

The minimum necessities of all should be guaranteed in any particular age.

Purport: The Cosmic Entity is my father, the Cosmic Operative Principle is my mother and the three worlds are my homeland. So every thing or object of this universe is the common property of all humanity. Nothing in the universe is cent percent equal in both quality and quantity; therefore the minimum necessities of life should be made available to everybody. In other words, food, clothing, medical treatment, accommodation, education and so on must be provided to all. Humanity’s minimum necessities however, change with the change in eras or ages. For example for conveyance the minimum necessity may be a bicycle in one age and then an airplane in another age. The minimum necessities must be provided for all people according to the age in which they live.
