Introduction:
Value education is essential for understanding our aspirations and
setting goals.
It provides a framework to fulfill our aspirations and leads to
happiness and success.
Correct understanding of values is crucial for decision-making and
determining right actions.
Identifying Aspirations and Framing Goals
All human beings have aspirations and make plans for their
future.
Before investing our energies, we must identify our basic
aspirations.
Based on this identification, we can frame appropriate goals
and sub-goals.
Value education helps in correct identification and aligning
goals with aspirations.
Universal Human Values and Fulfilling
Aspirations
Understanding universal human values is crucial for fulfilling
aspirations.
Values form the basis for thoughts, behavior, and actions.
Value education provides a definite way to fulfill aspirations
and ensures happiness and success.
Complementarity of Values and Skills
Values and skills are essential for success in any endeavor.
Values provide wisdom and guide goal-setting and direction.
Skills are required to actualize goals and achieve desired
outcomes.
Both values and skills are complementary and necessary for
overall success.
Evaluation of Beliefs
Without a correct understanding of universal human values, we rely
on ad-hoc beliefs.
Beliefs are subjective and change over time, leading to conflicts.
Value education helps evaluate beliefs and align them with
universal values.
It empowers individuals to make choices based on validated values
and ensures stability.
Basic Guidelines for Value Education
1. Universal: Value education should be universally applicable to all
human beings, transcending sect, creed, gender, or nationality. It
should focus on universal human values.
2. Rational: It should be based on reasoning rather than blind beliefs
or dogmas. Value education should not consist of mere sermons
or a list of do's and don'ts.
3. Natural and Verifiable: The values taught should be natural to
human beings and accepted by all. Each individual should have
the freedom to verify these values personally. It should be fulfilling
and observable in practice.
Content of Value Education:
Understanding oneself, aspirations, and happiness.
Comprehensively understanding the goal of human life.
Recognizing interconnectedness and coexistence with all entities
in nature.
Examining the role of human beings in the larger order of
existence.
