Universal HumanValues
(Self, Society and Nature)

Pre-requisites: Universal Human Values: Self & Family (desirable); 4-day Harmony-2
Workshop (co-requisite). Please refer to AICTE Model Curriculum-Vol-II.

1. Objective:
The objective of the course is four-fold:

A. Sensitization of student towards issues in society and nature.

B. Understanding (or developing clarity) of nature, society and larger systems, on the
basis of human relationships and resolved individuals.
C. Strengthening of self reflection.
D. Development of commitment and courage to act.

(For elaboration on some of the above, consult course description for Universal Human
Values 1: Self and Family, AICTE Model Curriculum-VOL-II).

2. Course Topics :
In this Universal Human Values course, the focus is more on understanding society and
nature on the basis of self and human relationships.

i) Purpose and motivation for the course.

ii) Recapitulation (from the previous course) on ideas of self, pre-conditioning, and
natural acceptance.
iii) Harmony in the self. Understanding human being as co-existence of self and
body. Identifying needs and satisfying needs of self and body. Self-observations.
Handling peer pressure.
iv) Recapitulation on relationships. Nine universal values in relationships. Reflecting
on relationships in family. Hostel and institute as extended family. Real life
examples.
v) Teacher-student relationship. Shraddha. Guidance. Goal of education.

order and human order. Salient features of each. Human being as cause of
imbalance in nature. (Film “Home” can be used.)
vii) Human being as cause of imbalance in nature. Depletion of resources – water,
food, mineral resources. Pollution. Role of technology. Mutual enrichment not
just recycling.
viii) Prosperity arising out of material goods and understanding of self. Separation of
needs of the self and needs of the body. Right utilization of resources. lkekU;
