Abstract:

Values are acquired, inherited and inculcated. They reflect an approach to life, a view to life. Any human activity, thoughts or ideas, feelings or sentiments or emotions that could promote self development of the individual in all its dimensions could be said to constitute a value. Value Education means inculcating in the children a sense of humanism, a deep concern for the well being of others and also for the nation. This is possible only when we correlate value education with other school subjects. But in today’s era values are losing their existence mainly in our education field. The present day education system has ignored character training to a great extent. It lays a great emphasis on developing memorization and reproduction of abilities only. As a consequence, there are explicit signs of erosion of desirable values and religious feelings in practically every sphere of life. Therefore the present paper discusses about the impact of values and religious feelings on the students of Sanskrit medium and English medium schools.
