HOW SPIRITUALITY HELPS STUDENTS TO DEVELOP POSITIVE LIFE WITH MORAL VALUES.
Students have been sent to educational institutions to get educated on various subjects and to learn moral values. Nowadays, these educational institutions are not keen in teaching moral values to the students, especially in the colleges and in higher studies. These moral values have got an important place in every human being’s life. The students when they come out of their college understand that life is only for earning and acquiring positions. Professional colleges seldom encourage the students to improve their moral values which can definit6ely help them in their future.
Today’s competitive field every teacher have the complaint that time is nor their to teach the moral values to the students. Though moral science is a subject in the schools, institutions do not give any importance to this, but neglect it without any reason.
When the students leave their colleges or educational institutions, after completing their courses, look forward to a good position and remuneration. Yes, that is the motto of education. But at the same time, living in the society is another way of learning many things. If the students are prepared to face failures, though it is not desired, they have to undergo the pressure of the failures from their parents and the society. By learning moral values, students learn to live with failures and also understand that life is not only success but failures also.
Due to the extreme competitive situation of today, every student need not get his desired position and sometimes he also faces unemployment. Unemployment being a common factor, most students tend to divert their life towards achieving something. They may not look into the positive or negative sides of their choice but simply jump to accept anything whatever they get on the journey of employment.
There are many negative organizations like, politics, terrorism, smuggling etc. attracting the students particularly when they are faced with failures. If the failure is continuous in search of employment and position, then he becomes unable to bear the pressure and also the comments from the parents and the society. He starts dwelling upon the issue and sometimes even conclude that both the parents as well as the society are against him and they do not understand his emotions. He starts speaking alone without getting council led by anybody from his family or society. But at the same time, he starts a search towards something without knowing anything about it. If, by accident, any of the negative institutions or individuals happened to meet at this crucial juncture, he gets convinced and accepts whole heartedly that particular institution or individual.
With the regular contacts with this kind of anti-social elements and agencies, he starts thinking that he should become a hero and show to the society that he can also do something. Regularly encouraged by these factors, such students take their life as serious to become anti-national and starts thinking on that path only.
The society is the looser when such incidents happen in our life. And we are only the course of creating it. In these circumstances, spiritual practice will definitely help the students to learn moral values and acquire courage to face failures. Through a systematic and scientific method of meditation, students can get the inner courage to face their life through other inner energy awakened. All the moral values will be automatically learnt through the expansion of the inner energy and the practitioner then becomes an asset to the society, irrespective of his success or failures. Therefore educational institutions must try to introduce such effective spiritual systems to the students at least before they leave the college for entering into life. This can give wonderful results to the practitioners and also a happy and tension free life to the society.
For this purpose Nisarga Chetana has been established in Bangalore to train everybody in spirituality irrespective of his/her placement in life, to attain peace and tranquility. It
introduces a method of simple “Meditationo on Silence” for a period of 15 minutes in the morning and evening. This can be practised by everybody including students to improve their inner strength and courage.
