HUMAN VALUES AND ETHICS
UNIT-1
Value Education
Character oriented education that instils basic values and ethnic values in one’s psyche is called ‘Value Based
Education’. The subject that enables us to understand ‘what is valuable’ for human happiness is called value
education. Value education is important to help everyone in improving the value system that he/she holds and puts it
to use. Once, one has understood his/ her values in life he/she can examine and control the various choices he/she
makes in his/ her life. Value education enables us to understand our needs and visualize our goals correctly and also
helps to remove our confusions and contradictions and bring harmony at all levels. It also helps remove our
confusions and contradictions and enables us to rightly utilize the technological innovations.
Values form the basis for all our thoughts, behaviours and actions. Once we know what is valuable to us, these values
become the basis, the anchor for our actions. We also need to understand the universality of various human values,
because only then we can have a definite and common program for value education. Then only we can be assured of
a happy and harmonious human society.
What are the basic guidelines for value education?
The subject that enables us to understand ‘what is valuable’ for human happiness is called value education. In order
to qualify for any course on value education, the following guidelines for the content of the course are important:
• Universal: It needs to be applicable to all the human beings irrespective of cast, creed, nationalities, religion, etc.,
for all times and regions
• Rational: It has to appeal to human reasoning. It has to be amenable to reasoning and not based on dogmas or
blind beliefs.
• Natural and verifiable: It has to be naturally acceptable to the human being who goes through the course and when
we live on the basis of such values it leads to our happiness. It needs to be experientially verifiable, and not based on
dogmas, beliefs or assumptions.
*All encompassing: Value education is aimed at transforming our consciousness and living. Hence, it needs to cover
all the dimensions (thought, behaviour, work and realization) and levels (individual, family, society, nature and
existence) of human life and profession.
• Leading to harmony: The value education ultimately is targeted to promote harmony within the individual, among
human beings and with nature.
Need for Value Education Today’s Scenario
The subject that enables us to understand ‘what is valuable’ for human happiness is called value education.
* Correct identification of our aspirations. The subject which enables us to understand ‘what is valuable’ for human
happiness is called ‘value education’ (VE). Thus, VE enables us to understand our needs and visualize our goals
correctly and also indicate the direction for their fulfilment. It also helps to remove our confusions and
contradictions and bring harmony at all levels.
* Understanding universal human values to fulfil our aspirations in continuity. Values form the basis for all our
thoughts, behaviours and actions. Once we know what is valuable to us, these values become the basis, the anchor
for our actions. We also need to understand the universality of various human values, because only then we can have
a definite and common program for value education. Then only we can be assured of a happy and harmonious
human society.
* Complementarity of values and skills. To fulfil our aspirations both values and skills are necessary. When we
identify and set the right goals and produced in right direction. This is known as value domain, the domain of
wisdom, and when we learn and practices to actualize this goal to develop the techniques to make this happen in real
life, in various dimensions of human endeavor (struggle). This is known as domain of skills.
Hence, there is an essential complementarity between values and skills for the success of any human endeavor. For
example, I want to lead a healthy life. Only wishing for good health will not help me keep my body fit and healthy
and without having understood the meaning of health, I will not be able to choose things correctly to keep my body
fit and healthy.
* Evaluation of our beliefs. Each one of us believes in certain things and we base our values on these beliefs, be they
false or true which may or may not be true in reality. These believes come to us from what we read, see, hear, what
our parents tells us, our friends talk about, what the magazines talk of, what we see from TV etc. Value Education
helps us to evaluate our beliefs and assumed values.
*Technology and human values. The present education system has become largely skillbased. The prime emphasis is
on science and technology. However, science and technology can only help to provide the means to achieve what is
considered valuable. It is not within the scope of science and technology to provide the competence of deciding
what really is valuable. Value Education is a crucial missing link in the present education system. Because of this
deficiency, most of our efforts may prove to be counterproductive and serious crises at the individual, societal and
environmental level are manifesting.
Skills and Human Values are Complementary
Values means importance or participation and skills means qualities, training, and capabilities. To fulfil our
aspirations both values and skills are necessary. When we identify and set the right goals and produced in right
direction. This is known as value domain, the domain of wisdom. Basically we must know what really is useful to
achieve human happiness, the happiness to all and for all the time. And when we learn and practices to actualize this
goal to develop the techniques to make this happen in real life, in various dimensions of human endeavour
(struggle). This is known as domain of skills. Hence, there is an essential complementarity between values and skills
for the success of any human endeavour.
For example, I want to lead a healthy life. Only wishing for good health will not help me keep my body fit and
healthy and without having understood the meaning of health, I will not be able to choose things correctly to keep
my body fit and healthy. So i have to learn the skills to achieve the goal of good health i.e. food to be consumed, the
physical workout to be designed. So without knowing the meaning of good health, health cannot be achieved and
also it is necessary to make use of the goal to achieve the goal of the goal
Self – Exploration
Self-exploration is the process to find out what is valuable to me by investigating within myself, what is right for me,
true for me, has to be judged within myself. Through selfexploration we get the value of ourself. We live with
different entirety (family, friends, air, soil, water, trees, etc.) and we want to understand our relationship with all
these. For this we need to start observing inside. The main focus of self-exploration is myself - the human being.
Content of self-exploration is just finding answers to the following fundamental questions of all human beings:
1. The Desire/Goal: What is my (human) Desire/ Goal? What do I really want in life, or what is the goal of human
life?
2. Program: What is my (human) program for fulfilling the desire? How to fulfil it? What is the program to actualize
the above? In short, the above two questions cover the whole domain of human aspirations and humanendeavor.
Thus, they form the content of self- exploration.
What you are’ and What you really want to be
Self-exploration is the process to find out what is valuable to me by investigating within myself, what is right for me,
true for me, has to be judged within myself. Through selfexploration we get the value of ourself. It is a process of
focusing attention on ourself, our present beliefs and aspirations vis-à-vis what we really want to be (that is to say,
what is naturally acceptable to us. If these two are the same, then there is no problem. If on investigation we find
that these two are not the same, then it means we are living with this contradiction (of not being what we really want
to be) and hence, we need to resolve this contradiction this conflict within us. It is a process of discovering that there
is something innate, invariant and universal in all human beings. This enables us to look at our confusions and
contradictions within and resolve them by becoming aware of our natural acceptance
Natural Acceptance
Natural acceptance implies unconditional and total acceptance of the self, people and environment. It also refers to
the absence of any exception from others. Once we fully and truly commit ourself on the basis of natural
acceptance, we feel a holistic sense of inner harmony, tranquillity and fulfilment. Actually natural acceptance is way
to accept the good things naturally. Learn everything that is good from others, but bring it in, and in our own way
absorb it; do not become others. We can easily verify proposals in the basis of characteristics of natural acceptance
mentioned below:
a) Natural acceptance does not change with time. It remains invariant with time. For example, our natural
acceptance for trust and respect does not change with age.
b) It does not depend on the place. Whatever we have accepted, in our life, at any time of our age, does not change,
even if we move from one place to another one.
c) It does not depend on our beliefs or past conditionings. No matter how deep our belief or past conditioning, as
long as we ask ourselves the question sincerely, as long as we refer deep within ourselves, the answer will always be
the same.
d) This natural acceptance is ‘constantly there’, something we can refer to. Natural acceptance is always there.
Whatever we do, this natural acceptance is within us, it is telling us what is right.
e) Natural acceptance is the same for all of us: it is part and parcel of every human being, it is part of humanness.
Though each one of us, may have different likes and dislikes and means to live and to react etc. but if we go deep in
our mind the purpose of our work, behaviour, efforts etc. are based on common goals like need to be happy, need to
be respected, need to get prosperity. So our basic acceptance remains the same.
Prosperity
The feeling of having or making available more than required physical facilities is prosperity. Almost all of us feel
that wealth alone means prosperity and try to explain this phenomenon on this non-existent or half fact. We are
trying to achieve happiness and prosperity by maximizing accumulation and consumption of physical facilities. It is
becoming antiecological and anti-people, and threatening the human survival itself. For prosperity, two things are
required
1. Identification of the required quantity of physical facilities, and
2. Ensuring availability / production of more than required physical facilities. We can be prosperous only if there is a
limit to the need for physical facilities. If there is no limit what so ever be the availability the feeling of prosperity
cannot be assured. Secondly, just assessing the need is not enough. We need to be able to produce or make available
more than the perceived need
Difference between Prosperity and Wealth
Prosperity is a feeling of having more than required physical facilities; it is not just physical facilities. Almost all of
us feel that wealth alone means prosperity and try to explain this phenomenon on this non-existent or half fact.
Wealth is a physical thing. It means having money, or having a lot of physical facilities or both. This is a very
important distinction. We mostly fail to make this distinction today. We keep working for wealth, without realizing
that the basic desire is for the feeling of prosperity, to have a feeling of having enough. Prosperity is more acceptable
to us because wealth is just a part of prosperity. We are trying to achieve happiness and prosperity by maximizing
accumulation and consumption of physical facilities. It is becoming anti-ecological and anti-people, and threatening
the human survival itself. A person has lot of money, but does not want to share even a bit of it. The person ‘has
wealth’ but feels ‘deprived’. If one felt prosperous he/she would have shared what one has, since there is lot more
than enough wealth anyway.
Present Vision of a Happy and Prosperous life
We are trying to achieve happiness and prosperity by maximizing accumulation and consumption of physical
facilities. It is becoming anti-ecological and anti-people, and threatening the human survival itself.
Some of the consequences of such trend are summarized below:
* At the level of individual: rising problems of depression, psychological disorders, suicides, stress, insecurity, etc.
* At the level of family: breaking of joint families, mistrust, and conflict between older and younger generations,
insecurity in relationships, divorce, dowry tortures, etc.
* At the level of society: growing incidence of terrorism and naxalism, rising communalism, spreading casteism,
racial and ethnic struggle, wars between nations, etc.
* At the level of nature: global warming, water, air, soil, noise etc. pollution, resource depletion of minerals and
mineral oils, etc. All the problems are a direct outcome of an incorrect understanding, our wrong notion about
happiness and prosperity and their continuity – this is an issue for serious exploration.
If all of us happen to prepare a list of our aspirations, we will find that all
our aspirations have an underlying basic desire – the basic aspiration to be
happy. Through his life, every human being is continuously trying to do
things that make him/her happy. In other words, we always look for
continuous happiness in our life.
o In addition to happiness, we also aspire for adequate fulfillment of our
bodily needs i.e. the need for physical facilities. These Physical Facilities are
the material things we use in order to fulfill the needs of our body. Having
enough physical facilities gives us a feeling of prosperity. We want to have a
continuity of this feeling too. Hence prosperity is another basic aspiration of
every human being.
o Student able to know the basic requirements for fulfilment of human
aspirations.
o The right understanding will enable us to work out our requirements for
physical facilities and hence correctly distinguish the difference between
wealth and prosperity.
o Fulfilment of relationships based on right understanding leads to mutual

happiness. Fulfilment of need for physical facilities through nurture-fulfilling
production activities leads to mutual prosperity

Vedanta, one of the six orthodox schools of Hindu philosophy, encompasses a diverse range of philosophical
teachings found in the concluding part of the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of Hinduism. The ethos of Vedanta is
characterized by its exploration of the ultimate nature of reality (Brahman) and the relationship between the
individual soul (Atman) and the cosmic reality. Several key principles define the ethos of Vedanta:
1. Oneness of Reality (Advaita):

Vedanta emphasizes the oneness of ultimate reality, asserting that Brahman, the ultimate cosmic reality, is
non-dual (Advaita). It posits that the apparent diversity in the world is an illusion (Maya), and the
individual soul (Atman) is ultimately identical with Brahman.
2. Importance of Self-Realization (Atma Jnana):
The primary goal in Vedanta is self-realization, which involves understanding one's true nature as the
eternal and unchanging Atman. This realization leads to liberation (Moksha) from the cycle of birth and
death (Samsara).
3. Authority of the Vedas (Shruti):
Vedanta places great importance on the authority of the Vedas as the foundational scriptures. The
Upanishads, which are the philosophical portions of the Vedas, are particularly significant for Vedantic
teachings.
4. Threefold Path to Liberation (Tri-marga):
Vedanta outlines three main paths to spiritual realization and liberation: Karma Yoga (path of selfless
action), Bhakti Yoga (path of devotion), and Jnana Yoga (path of knowledge). These paths cater to
individuals with different temperaments and inclinations.
5. Non-attachment and Detachment (Vairagya):
Vedanta encourages the practice of non-attachment to the transient and illusory aspects of the world.
Detachment from material possessions and a focus on spiritual pursuits are considered crucial for spiritual
progress.
6. Role of Guru (Spiritual Teacher):
A qualified teacher or guru is seen as essential in Vedanta. The guru imparts knowledge and guidance to
the disciple, helping them understand the scriptures and providing spiritual direction.
7. Understanding Maya (Illusion):
Vedanta acknowledges the concept of Maya, the illusory nature of the world. It teaches that the material
world is a projection of Brahman, but the ultimate reality lies beyond the realm of appearances.
8. Dynamic Engagement in the World (Loka Sangraha):
While emphasizing the pursuit of spiritual knowledge and liberation, Vedanta does not advocate
renunciation as the only path. It encourages individuals to fulfill their worldly duties selflessly (Nishkama
Karma) and contribute positively to society.
9. Universalism and Tolerance:
Vedanta embraces a universal outlook, recognizing the diversity of spiritual paths and acknowledging the
validity of different religious and philosophical traditions. It promotes tolerance and inclusivity.

10. Philosophical Inquiry and Contemplation (Vichara):
Vedanta encourages deep philosophical inquiry (Vichara) and contemplation on the nature of reality. This
introspective process is fundamental to gaining spiritual insight.
The ethos of Vedanta is deeply rooted in spiritual wisdom, self-realization, and a profound understanding of the
ultimate reality. It continues to be a source of inspiration for seekers on the spiritual path and has influenced various
philosophical and religious traditions worldwide.
