Assam is unquestionably a beautiful state of India that upholds the real picture of 'Unity in Diversity. No one can deny the immense role played by Sankardeva's neo-Vaishnava movement in expediting the process of formation of a larger Assamese society in the right direction. In order to sow the seeds of unity and solidarity among the masses from different ethnic groups, they have to be brought to the same religious-social and cultural stage as said by Sankardeva. Simply by analysing the essence of Sankardeva's philosophy, we may understand the relevance of his teaching in modern Assamese society for its overall growth and development. The creative work of the great Srimanta Sankardeva has contributed to the social, cultural and spiritual development of Assamese society and has given impetus and scope to the national life of Assam.  His thoughts and teachings have enriched the Assamese society from different angles. Therefore, it has been attempted by the writer to explore the religious and humanistic perspective in his teaching. The findings of this paper have been summarised that there is a pressing need to revive the teaching of Sankardeva in the modern Assamese society considering the rising religious intolerance and degradation of human values.
