MORAL GLOBE 2020
Value Literacy Project
Introduction:
Values are roots of the culture
of a nation and guiding principles of life. Values
guard the society from
degradation of culture. Human Values are related to divine not to the world.
Every one of us is well versed with these values. But we apply them in
our practical life with less interest.
A value is a relationship between
an individual and the society. In fact values are
the pillars of humanity. Values
take more significance. We can understand values in regard to both social and
individual. Values are based on ethics. Such ethical values are essential to
sustain societies and to generate members to the society with moral qualities. It
is important for the nations today to develop character literacy to maintain
the Global harmony.
Dr.Sri
Jagannatha Swami,
a renowned spiritualist and educationist, has developed a project called Moral
Globe – Value Literacy Project in view
of promoting global human values among the younger generation.
The Objectives
of the Value Literacy Project (VLP):
Real education has to reach man
how to live with joy.
The lessons learned in class
rooms are forgotten immediately after the student leaves the door steps, today.
We expect our children to learn and earn. But equally important is character.
The Value Literacy Project is designed as a tool for the development of
character. It is not a form of dictation to or brainwash of an individual, but
rather to offer him a secure base from which he may take his own moral
decision.
VLP gives much importance to
character. Without transforming character, packing the brain with information
can only result in damaging it. The qualities of unselfishness and discipline, humility
and simplicity must become integral parts of the nature of all the students. The
object of the project is to establish the unifying human values of right conduct,
peace, truth, love and non-violence. It is a critical time, today as the world
meets with crimes, racism, violence, lack of the self respect, robbery etc., VLP
develops programmes to promote values in young people so that they can pave the
basements to build a peaceful society of their own in future with the personal
and global perspective.VLP is based on integrated Global secular values and not
based on any one particular religion.
Curriculum of
the Programme :
VLP offers guidance to those who
have the responsibility of teaching young
people. It has the specific
objective of contributing physical, mental, emotional, moral and spiritual
education through the development of qualities and characteristics such as:
1)
Self
- confidence, self- esteem and self discipline.
2)
Communication
and analytical thinking skills.
3)
Academic
and social skills.
4)
A
positive regard for the human rights, life and dignity of all people.
5) Harmonious living within the
environment - at the home, the community,
the nation and the world.
6)Increased congruence between
positive thoughts, words and actions.
7) Recognition of and
participation in the interdependence of the human
family globally and
8) Reverence for the unity of
life.
This helps the children to grow
their intelligence as well as wisdom and creates
greater awareness of Global
living.
