At the core of Prout are its five fundamental principles formulated by Shrii Prabhatrainjan Sarkar in 1959, and subsequently published in Idea and Ideology. These core principles were incorporated as aphorisms 12 to 16 of the fifth chapter of Ananda Sutram (1962) along with the 11 social and socio-economic principles of Prout. These 16 principles form the basis of Prout.

In addition we have listed the discourse on Laws on social dynamics, as it substantiates Prout's teachings of diversity, change and relativity. It explains the mobility of classes throughout the social cycle, and elucidates the need to keep a perspective of integrated diversity on socio-economic life in general.
