Moral Values: Indian Perspective (2 Vols-Set)

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Moral values are of interest to every intelligent person because they deal with not as human life is led but as to how it should be led. The better alternative for the word value is virtue; in Sanskrit it is guna. Since the word value has gained wide currency, it was adopted in the present volume. These values or virtues are not necessarily ingrained in every human being. They are not only to be cultivated; but cultivated assiduously. Since ages, the ancient thinkers, sages and seers, have been applying their mind to identify the values to provide stability to society. Through the mental churning of the successive generations, were identified the values. It is these that prevent society from degenation and eventual disintegration. The ancients have given a name to each value appropriate to it which they have themselves explained, elucidated and elaborated. This elaboration; call it definition; the present work attempts with the penetrating study of hundreds of ancient texts. It does not stop at that. It goes on to illustrate them, the values, with scores of examples not only from the ancient texts but also from the lies of great men worldwide. Artikel-Nr. 145234
