Need
It is evident that we are facing issues like purposelessness, loneliness, depression, anxiety, lack of clarity on what to do, why to do, lack of trust, jealousy, hatred, disrespect, poverty, hunger, malnutrition, inequity, polarisation, extremism, forced migration, violence, pollution, resource-depletion, climate-change, and species extinction. As responsible citizens, we want to do something about it. We have realised the immediate need to work on developing human consciousness to address the above-mentioned issues
We have realised, each element of personal, societal, and planetary wellbeing is wholly interconnected and interdependent. It makes no sense to think of individual wellbeing at the expense of anyone or anything else. A healthy cell lives in a healthy organ, in a healthy body, in a healthy family, in a healthy community, on a healthy planet. so the solution is to understand and live in harmony at all the dimensions of our life.
In this context, we have also recognized the great possibilities with Universal Human Values education in achieving harmony at all levels – individual, family, society, and nature/existence.
