- 5. VBE • Education opens up our mind, but Value-Based Education (VBE) gives us purity of heart too. • Education provides us with skills, but VBE provides us sincerity too. • Education extends our relationship with the world, but VBE links us with our own family members too. • Education makes our living better, but VBE makes our life better too. • Education teaches us to compete with others, but VBE encourages us to be complete too. • Education makes us a good professional, but VBE makes us a whole human too. • Education takes us to the top, but VBE takes the whole society to the top. • Education gives us capacity of better learning, but VBE gives us the tool for a deeper understanding too. • Education may bring limitations but VBE is for liberation.
- 6. "THE REAL DIFFICULTY IS THAT PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT EDUCATION TRULY IS. WE ASSESS THE VALUE OF EDUCATION IN THE SAME MANNER AS WE ASSESS THE VALUE OF LAND OR OF SHARES IN THE STOCK-EXCHANGE MARKET. WE WANT TO PROVIDE ONLY SUCH EDUCATION AS WOULD ENABLE THE STUDENT TO EARN MORE. WE HARDLY GIVE ANY THOUGHT TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE CHARACTER OF THE EDUCATED. THE GIRLS, WE SAY, DO NOT HAVE TO EARN; SO WHY SHOULD THEY BE EDUCATED? AS LONG AS SUCH IDEAS PERSIST THERE IS NO HOPE OF OUR EVER KNOWING THE TRUE VALUE OF EDUCATION". – Gandhi

WITH A SPIRIT OF SACRIFICE AND ENTHUSIASM WE MUST GO IN SEARCH LIKE THOSE WHO TRAVEL TO FOREIGN LANDS AND TEAR UP MOUNTAINS IN THEIR SEARCH FOR HIDDEN GOLD. THIS IS WHAT THE ADULTS MUST DO WHO SEEKS THE UNKNOWN FACTOR THAT LIES HIDDEN IN THE DEPTHS OF A CHILD'S SOUL.

Editor's Notes
- Values Done is better than perfect There are many ways to make change in education We all love our children and we care about them
- Values is like a tea pot but you have to make the tea. Are you green and growing or ripe and rotting? We need to change? But how do we make that change? Monotony is the awful reward of the careful Change everything except you wives and husbands Round Table How long have you been in teaching?
- What is value based education.
- MOANING MOMENTS- What are issues that we are going through?
- VBE is highly needed in our modern society because our lives have become more miserable. The quantity of education has considerably increased, but the quality has decreased. Why? The number of educated people has reached at a high level, but murder, hatred, and selfishness have spread out like wildfire everywhere. Why? Many institutions are opened, but only few civilized people are produced. Why? Degrees are available for all, but the dignity has gone down. Why? Trained people are produced from many institutions, but sincere people are very few. Why? Many books are written; much research is done; many professional achievements are attained, but humanity is threatened. Why? Therefore, we need VBE. The rate of suicide is going up in our society. One of the very common factors responsible for this is over pressure on students to get the high marks in their exams. It is for sure a very unhealthy and unethical competition. It is not only limited to a school level education, several suicide cases happen even at top level academic institutions worldwide. The highest purpose of education is now either disregarded or may be forgotten.
