Abstract:
India is a rich country of cultural heritage, known for the gentleness of mature mind. Resurgence of a country could come, not only through the channels of science and technology but through the floodgates of value oriented education. Therefore people working in different fields i.e. educationists, social reformers, principals, teachers and religious leaders have been in one tone emphasizing value education.
We are witnessing value crisis in our society today. As the vitality of human belief in values is dying out in all most every country, the younger generation has started to pooh-pooh the unique religious epics and religious institutions giving room for erosion of spiritual and moral values. As a result the mind of man has been laciniated into small fraction and fragments that makes the value content of human life a diminishing factor in modern times.
Teachers are the torchbearers in creating social cohesion, national integration and a learning society. They are capable of generating and imparting knowledge as per the demands of the society. Value education could be implemented in our vast country with great success if lakhs of teachers undertake this important responsibility as a challenging task with the support of central and state Govt.
