Abstract

The world is in a crisis and looks for new ways to meet its present conditions. Modern educators insist that education should be relevant to our age, and they look for innovations to chart new ways out of the present dilemmas. The most elementary kind of thinking about education involves some understanding of aims and purposes. In one sense, it could be said that philosophizing about education began when man first became conscious about education as a distinct human activity. Education was primarily meant for survival. Children were taught the necessary skills for living. Gradually, however, man began to use education for a variety of purposes. Today, we realize that education may be used not only for purposes of survival, but for a more enriched life, better use of Leisure time, and improvements in social and cultural life. This research paper shows the attitude of Sr. Sec students of Ambala towards teachings of Shri Mad Bhagwad Gita in the context of value education.
