| Summary: | The purpose of this article is to show the importance of Indian
Literature in Moral Education. It plays an important role
in building and instilling positive values among secondary
students. Moral education is a combination of literacy and moral
values. Students need to have the mental, physical, moral and
emotional capacity for the betterment of the society at large.
It will be a great achievement if every individual is a worthy
person. Story and novels are modes to communicate character
and background events, which is an effective way to nurture
students and instill moral values among readers. Readers will
be able to appreciate the values, and it will be forever in their
minds. It should be noted, educated or not a reader should be
able to appreciate moral values that he or she has read, and the
end effect is that it should revitalize their souls. As humans we
naturally use values to guide us in our daily actions |
