Cultural Transformation

The only source of solace and hope for humanity is people with kindness and tolerance, people who hold on to ethics and values. Sadly their tribe is on the way to extinction due to the predominance of lopsided values and perverted ethics.

Unless education starts giving a strong impetus on inculcating values among the youth, humanity has little to hope. Ethics and values should get the same place and importance in the curriculum as science, technology, economics, history etc. from the elementary school level itself. Ethics and values should become a paramount criterion in assessing an individual’s personality as well as suitability for any vocation.  The country should have a National Education Policy revamping the existing obnoxious education pattern. This will trigger a cultural transformation and results would start manifesting in a span of about twenty years.
