Question

Essay on degradation human values in our society

Answer 1

Human values are deteriorating because we, the humans have forgotten the essence of life. Why do we use the term ‘Values’ with humans not with animals? The answer is these values make the humans superior to the other animals. But the irony is that we think that the vitality of life is to acquire more and more materialistic paraphernalia. We often come across the news like someone killed a person for some meager amount. Such incidents occur on account of our lack of comprehension of the ultimate goal of life.

Why is there a need to teach the moral ethics and professional values to the professional students like engineering, management and architecture? Because our education equips us how to acquire wealth and success but it never makes us understand the value of life and other humans.

Hence there’s no dearth of successful professionals but there’re only a very few people equipped with humanity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

• Values are defined most oftenly as standards for determining levels of goodness or desirability. Values are generally loaded with affective thoughts about ideas, objects, behavior etc. India's higher education system is one of the oldest systems of the world. In spite of this there is no uniform expansion & development in this field. Our primordial embodiments i.e. Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha, on which education was based, are not even completely realized by scholars today. This is the main reason for degrading the level of human values in higher education in India. On one hand, people are getting rich by the degrees full of knowledge about various fields, simultaneously, loosing values and ethics etc. We ourselves are to be blamed for this. Our existing environment including family system, education system and media including newspapers, T.V. etc is responsible for such poor conditions. This research paper aims at explaining the factors how & why human values are consistently degrading in India, as the time passes, although we are rich in culture & traditions, still our higher education is unable to cherish or enhance it.
