3. A value is a belief, a mission, or a
philosophy that is meaningful. Whether
we are consciously aware of them or
not, every individual has a core set of
personal values. Values can range from
the commonplace, such as the belief in
hard work and punctuality, to the more
psychological, such as self-
reliance, concern for others, and
harmony of purpose.

6. NEED OF MYTHOLOGY FOR VALUE
EDUCATION
When there was
very little education
in the past it was
only these mythological stories which
created human values and passed them on
from one generation to another. Even in this
modern age we understand ourselves and
our society better when we learn from our
mythological fairy tales. If we don’t give
mythological examples it will fade away from
the memories of our future generation.

7. When man was living in the barbaric
age he hardly had any sense of
values because the need for values
arises only when mans life becomes
meaningful and secure. So, if you do
not have any values you are as good
as a caveman.

8. GITA BIBLE GURU GRANTH QURAN TIPITAKA

REMEMBER-Which ever holy book it may, be all of them teach
REMEMBER-
us the same values to make us a sensible and balanced
personality and have a responsible attitude towards our life and
the society.

13. What is Mythology?
• The word "myth" comes from the Greek word mythos, which means
a spoken or written story. A collection of myths is called a
"mythology." The purpose of a myth is to explain human experience.
Many events in a myth are not realistic or based on fact, since the
message communicated by the story is more important than telling
about an actual event.
• These myths were descended to us from our ancestors, so
sometimes these stories are not very accurate. In this
presentation, we are focusing on learnings from mythological
stories
• Indian mythology dates back to 7200 B.C. when the first hymns of
the RIGA VEDA was composed. The hymns of the RIG VEDA are
the first and the freshest expressions of the sense of beauty and
gladness awakened in the Aryan race by the charms and the bounty
of nature. What began as a celebration of natural elements such as
Air, Water and Fire was converted into the worship of cosmic
elements

14. Mythological Story– Raja Harishchandra
Raja Harishchandra was a truthful king. He
was the 36th king of the solar dynasty. His
legend is very popular and often told as a
benchmark for an ideal life. He was renowned
for his piety and justice. His name is Sanskrit
for "having golden splendor". Harishchandra
had two unique qualities. The first being, he
kept his word and never went back on what he
uttered as a promise. The other being, he
never uttered a lie in his life. These twin
qualities were tested heavily in his life by
various circumstances that led him to penury
and separation from his family. But he stood to
his principles in the face of all ordeals and
persevered to become a symbol of courage.
Moral- We should always speak the truth.

18. Value system-Ancient
Times
• Ancient values were orally passed for generations from person to
person. These values are passed in the form of stories, legends,
rituals, songs & even laws.
• People used to follow the teachings, inputs of religious leaders,
elders and scriptures and incorporated them in their day-to-day
life.
• These teachings, values and learnings were passed on from one
generation to other generation through word of mouth, story telling,
street plays, folklore, songs, poems and scriptures.
• People practiced the values that they were taught to them.
• Mythological stories were recited orally and spread the meaning of
the story.
• Dignity of labor, courage, humility etc. were given importance.

19. Value system-Modern
Times
• Modern education system is trying to inculcate ancient values
through value education classes and extra curriculum.
• There is no medium of exposure for the new generation to
understand and adopt ancient mythological values.
• Due to nuclear families and working parents the spread of
ancient moral values in diminishing.
• In extended families, elders and grandparents are struggling to
pass on the value legacy to the next generation.
• Festivities, family functions and social/religious gatherings are
the major source of ancient value spread.

20. Ancient Values in Modern
Times
Elderly people are important in our modern society. They teach us;
respect, manners and appreciation of things, they have many skills
and much experience to offer us, if we choose to listen to what
they have to say. Children always learn by the examples set by the
elders. They pass on their experience and values to the younger
generation. When we accept their word of wisdom we can
incorporate the ancient values in modern times.
Ancient literature be it fictional or non-fictional and scriptures pass
on the values and morals of the ancient times to the modern youth.
Public libraries, museums and data repositories enable this
information to be passed on to the next generation.
Ancient Philosophical studies both eastern & western have enough
context of ancient value system which can be incorporated in
modern society through subject specialization, research & thesis &
special educational streams.

21. Ancient values in modern times
– continued….
Modern Education system: The onus of introducing the Ancient morals
& values to the modern youth falls on the educational system &
Institutions. The educational system should have special focus on
values in the educational curriculum through morning prayers, chanting
of holy mantras, performing havans, educational tours, holding seminars
& workshops.
Rituals & festivities: Festivals & family functions expose the present
festivities
generation to the rituals & values attached to the customs which are
passed on from generation to generation.

The term mythology can refer either to the
study of myths, or a collection of myths.
There were many people who lead us on to
the path of truth and are famous in
mythology. As the time is passing, people
are forgetting these things. They are greedy,
impatient, aggressive and often lie. We
should live in peace remembering our
ancient values.

48. What are values ?
Values are the accepted principles or
standards of a person or a group.
Values are obtained in many different ways.
However, the role of the family and the
educational institution is most important in
developing an individual's values.

49. In ancient times values were learnt first from the joint family and
later from the gurukul.
Our ancient Values
Gurukul was like a boarding school
were the shishyas (students) lived in
the same house with their guru
(teacher) as one big family. All
shishyas were treated as equal. The
guru used to impart his wisdom,

51. Times have changed – Modern times
In the modern times, family structure has changed from joint family to
nuclear family. This is the major factor that has brought a change in the
values of the individual. People tend to become materialistic, greedy,
jealous, dishonest, cunning & shrewed. Therefore, most of them suffer
from depression also. This has increased aggressiveness, violence and
intolerance in the society.
All the above are directly effecting the value system of the children.
Disobedience and aggressiveness is seen as a common feature among the
children to their parents & teachers.
