MODULE 3​

✅ 1. Discuss respect on the basis of different types of


evaluations.
Respect means giving value to a human being for what they truly are. There are two ways
people usually evaluate respect: conditional and right evaluation.

Conditional evaluation:

●​ Based on social status, wealth, position or power.​

●​ Temporary — changes if status changes.​

●​ Creates inequality and pride.​

●​ Causes jealousy, ego and conflict.​

For example, someone may respect a rich person but ignore a poor person, which is wrong.

Right evaluation:

●​ Based on the inherent qualities of a human being.​

●​ Every human has the same desire for happiness and respect.​

●​ Respect is natural when we recognise this equality.​

●​ Builds trust, dignity and harmony in relationships.​

True respect is not about fear or blind obedience. It is about seeing the other person as equal,
understanding their feelings and intentions.

When we use right evaluation:

●​ We respect everyone regardless of caste, status or money.​

●​ We remove domination and discrimination.​


●​ Relationships become healthy and fulfilling.​

So, respecting others properly means using the right understanding to value their true nature,
not just external labels.

✅ 2. Explain the concept of trust with examples.


Trust is the feeling that another person’s intention is good for us and our intention is good for
them. It is the foundation for all healthy relationships.

Key points:

●​ Trust comes naturally — it is our basic expectation.​

●​ When trust is strong, there is no fear or suspicion.​

●​ Lack of trust leads to arguments, doubt and conflict.​

Example:

●​ Parents trust their child to speak the truth. The child trusts parents to care for them.​

●​ Friends trust each other’s honesty and support.​

Trust does not mean we ignore mistakes — it means we understand that mistakes come from
lack of understanding, not bad intentions.

Building trust:

●​ Share feelings openly.​

●​ Listen with patience.​

●​ Give others a chance to correct themselves.​

Trust creates a safe environment where people feel valued and relationships grow strong. It is
the root of feelings like respect, affection and love.
✅ 3. List out the nine feelings of relationship. Explain
them briefly.
Human relationships are guided by nine natural feelings. These feelings help us live in harmony
with family and society.

1.​ Trust: Assuring good intention.​

2.​ Respect: Right evaluation of others.​

3.​ Affection: Warm feeling of closeness.​

4.​ Care: Protecting others’ needs.​

5.​ Guidance: Helping with right understanding.​

6.​ Reverence: Respect with deep regard for qualities.​

7.​ Glory: Appreciation of good actions.​

8.​ Gratitude: Remembering and valuing help received.​

9.​ Love: The complete feeling — unconditional acceptance and concern.​

Each feeling connects us to others with understanding and responsibility. For example:

●​ Parents guide and care for children.​

●​ Children feel gratitude for elders.​

●​ Friends share trust and affection.​

These nine feelings make relationships strong and create harmony in family and society.

✅ 4. Explain about human goals and gross


misunderstandings.
Human goals are continuous happiness and prosperity. Happiness comes at the level of the
Self; prosperity at the level of the Body.
Gross misunderstandings arise when people:

●​ Think happiness depends only on wealth.​

●​ Run endlessly after money, ignoring relationships and self-growth.​

●​ Believe competition is necessary for success.​

●​ Mix up needs of the Self (like respect) with needs of the Body (comfort).​

These misunderstandings lead to:

●​ Stress, conflicts and loneliness.​

●​ Overexploitation of nature.​

●​ Unethical practices and injustice.​

Right understanding clears these confusions:

●​ Happiness comes from trust, respect and right feelings.​

●​ Prosperity comes from right work and clear limits for physical needs.​

●​ Both should develop together for fulfilment.​

Removing misunderstandings helps people focus on real goals, not false wants.

✅ 5. What are human order systems? Elaborate.


Human order means a system where people live with understanding, trust and mutual fulfilment.
It has three levels:

1.​ Individual Order:​

○​ Right understanding, self-regulation.​

○​ Healthy body, clear mind.​


2.​ Family Order:​

○​ Trust, respect, care among family members.​

○​ Proper sharing of work and responsibility.​

3.​ Social Order:​

○​ Justice, equality and cooperation.​

○​ Systems that protect human values.​

○​ Sustainable use of resources.​

When these orders work together:

●​ Individuals grow with harmony.​

●​ Families become strong and supportive.​

●​ Society becomes peaceful and fair.​

A healthy human order creates conditions for prosperity, happiness and sustainability for all.

✅ 6. Define affection. How does affection lead to


harmony in the family?
Affection is a warm feeling of closeness and care towards another person. It is the natural
extension of trust and respect. When we trust someone’s intention and respect their true worth,
affection flows naturally.

Key features of affection:

●​ It is unconditional — not based on external conditions like money or status.​

●​ Builds a sense of belonging and warmth.​

●​ Encourages open communication and support.​


In a family, affection:

●​ Strengthens bonds between parents, children, siblings and elders.​

●​ Helps resolve conflicts calmly.​

●​ Makes every member feel valued and emotionally secure.​

●​ Creates an atmosphere where people help and understand each other.​

For example, parents show affection by caring for their children’s needs and feelings. Children
show affection by listening to elders and showing concern.

When affection is missing:

●​ Relationships feel cold and distant.​

●​ Small misunderstandings grow into major conflicts.​

●​ Family members feel lonely even while living together.​

When affection is strong:

●​ Everyone supports each other in good and bad times.​

●​ Trust and respect become deeper.​

●​ The family becomes a source of happiness and security.​

So, affection is an important feeling that keeps the family united and harmonious.

✅ 7. Explain the Vision for the Universal Human Order.


The Universal Human Order is the vision of a society where all human beings live with trust,
respect and co-existence. It means creating a system where:

●​ Every individual has right understanding and lives with self-regulation.​

●​ Families are peaceful and supportive.​


●​ Society works on justice, equality and cooperation.​

●​ Nature is used wisely and protected for future generations.​

The scope of this vision is vast. It covers:

●​ Harmony in the Self: clarity and peace of mind.​

●​ Harmony in the family: trust, affection and care.​

●​ Harmony in society: fair systems and ethical work.​

●​ Harmony with nature: sustainable living.​

For example:

●​ People work not for blind profit but for mutual prosperity.​

●​ Resources are used and shared wisely.​

●​ Education builds responsible and ethical citizens.​

This vision removes exploitation, greed and conflict. It creates a world where everyone can live
with dignity and fulfilment. Achieving it starts with each person developing right understanding
and practising human values daily.

✅ 8. Discuss the feeling of love in the current scenario.


Love is the complete value — the highest feeling that includes trust, respect, affection, care and
more. It means unconditional acceptance of the other person as they are, wishing their
well-being always.

Today, the true meaning of love is often misunderstood:

●​ Many people confuse love with attraction or possession.​

●​ Love is sometimes mixed with selfish expectations.​

●​ Media and trends show love as temporary or material.​


This creates problems like:

●​ Conflicts in relationships.​

●​ Broken families.​

●​ Loneliness and mistrust.​

True love is unconditional:

●​ It is not about control or conditions.​

●​ It grows naturally when there is right understanding.​

●​ It includes caring, guiding and supporting each other honestly.​

For example, parents love their children without expecting returns. This pure love creates trust
and security.

In today’s world, bringing back the true meaning of love means:

●​ Building right understanding in families.​

●​ Teaching children to value feelings over material things.​

●​ Living with trust and respect daily.​

When love is rightly understood and lived, families stay strong and society becomes peaceful.

✅ 9. Explain the feelings of care and guidance.


Care and guidance are two important feelings that strengthen relationships.

Care:

●​ Means looking after the needs of others, especially bodily needs.​

●​ Ensures the other person stays healthy, safe and comfortable.​


●​ Example: Parents care for their children by providing food, shelter and safety.​

Guidance:

●​ Means helping others with right understanding and clear thinking.​

●​ Supports mental and emotional growth.​

●​ Example: Teachers guide students to learn well and become good human beings.​

Both care and guidance:

●​ Are based on trust and respect.​

●​ Create a bond of responsibility and gratitude.​

●​ Develop confidence in relationships.​

Without care, a person may feel neglected physically. Without guidance, they may feel confused
or directionless.

For example, elders guide the young with life lessons and experiences. The young show care
by supporting elders in daily needs.

Together, care and guidance ensure that people feel secure, understood and valued. This
creates harmony in families and strengthens society.

✅ 10. What is excellence? Is working for competition the


same as working for excellence? Explain with examples.
Excellence means doing one’s work with continuous improvement and sincerity. It is not about
beating others but about becoming better each day.

Working for excellence:

●​ Focuses on self-growth and doing the best possible.​

●​ Builds confidence and satisfaction.​


●​ Benefits everyone because the work is genuine and helpful.​

Working for competition:

●​ Means trying to be better than others.​

●​ Often creates stress, jealousy and shortcuts.​

●​ Can lead to misuse of skills just to win.​

For example:

●​ A student working for excellence studies to understand and apply knowledge well.​

●​ A student working for competition may focus only on marks, sometimes using unfair
means.​

True excellence means:

●​ Doing tasks with care and honesty.​

●​ Learning from mistakes.​

●​ Helping others grow too.​

When people work for excellence, society grows with trust and quality. When people work only
for competition, it often creates conflicts and mistrust.

✅ 11. Distinguish between respect, glory and reverence.


These three feelings all relate to how we value others, but they are different.

Respect:

●​ Is the right evaluation of another person as a human being.​

●​ Means seeing everyone equally, recognising their natural qualities.​


●​ Given to all people simply because they are human.​

Glory:

●​ Is appreciation for someone’s good deeds or achievements.​

●​ Given for specific actions or contributions.​

●​ Earned by doing something valuable for others or society.​

Reverence:

●​ Is deep respect with a sense of devotion.​

●​ Usually directed towards elders, teachers, saints or great thinkers.​

●​ Combines respect with gratitude for their wisdom and guidance.​

For example:

●​ We respect a neighbour as a fellow human.​

●​ We feel glory for a freedom fighter’s sacrifice.​

●​ We feel reverence for a wise teacher or parent.​

Mixing these up can cause confusion. True harmony comes from knowing how to feel and
express each appropriately.

✅ 12. Define love. How is love the complete value?


Love is the complete value because it combines all other feelings like trust, respect, affection,
care, guidance and gratitude. It is unconditional — pure acceptance and concern for another’s
happiness.

Features of true love:

●​ Not based on selfish demands.​


●​ Not about possession or control.​

●​ Comes naturally from right understanding and genuine trust.​

For example, parents love their children without conditions. That love includes care, guidance,
respect and support. When we truly love, we wish well for the other person without expecting
anything in return.

Love keeps families united, relationships strong and society peaceful. It removes fear and
mistrust. That is why love is called the foundation of all human values — the complete value that
includes all others within it.

✅ 13. How does one develop right feeling — is it based


on right understanding or experience of events? Explain.
Right feeling is the inner state of trust, respect, care and love for others. It is not automatic — it
needs right understanding.

●​ If we rely only on past events or experiences, feelings may change.​

●​ For example, if someone hurts us, we may stop trusting them.​

●​ But with right understanding, we see mistakes as lack of clarity, not bad intentions.​

●​ This helps us maintain trust and respect despite problems.​

So, right feeling:

●​ Comes from verifying within what feels naturally true.​

●​ Is stable because it is based on understanding, not changing events.​

●​ Removes confusion caused by pre-conditioning or blind beliefs.​

Self-exploration develops right understanding. This leads to right feeling. The feeling then
guides our thoughts, behaviour and relationships.
✅ 14. What is the role of physical facility in the fulfilment
of relationship? What is justice? Is it a continuous or
temporary need?
Physical facility means the material things needed to maintain the Body — food, shelter, clothes.
These are important for comfort but do not directly fulfil relationships.

●​ In a family, providing physical facilities shows care.​

●​ But trust, respect and love come from right understanding, not money.​

Justice means recognising and fulfilling mutual needs in relationships — respecting feelings,
meeting real needs and behaving fairly.

●​ For example, parents feed and shelter children (physical facility) but also give love and
guidance (feelings).​

Justice is a continuous need because relationships need ongoing understanding and fairness.
Physical facilities are a temporary need — they change with situations and the Body’s
condition.

So, while physical facilities support relationships, they cannot replace trust, respect and love.

✅ 15. What is the building block of harmony in society?


Explain with examples.
The building block of harmony in society is the family. A healthy family nurtures trust, respect
and care, which flow into society.

●​ When families live with understanding, they teach children human values.​

●​ Children grow up as responsible citizens.​

●​ Families help each other and neighbours.​

For example:
●​ A family that shares resources with others builds trust in the community.​

●​ People who respect elders at home will respect rules and elders in society too.​

Strong families create strong neighbourhoods, which build a just and peaceful society. So,
family is the first training ground for harmony.

✅ 16. Describe the human goal. Explain how this is


conducive to sustainable happiness and prosperity for
all.
The human goal is to live with continuous happiness and prosperity. Happiness relates to
feelings — trust, respect, affection. Prosperity relates to physical facilities for the Body.

How it helps:

●​ Right understanding removes unnecessary wants and conflicts.​

●​ Using resources wisely keeps nature healthy.​

●​ Sharing and cooperation strengthen families and communities.​

●​ Everyone feels secure, cared for and fulfilled.​

When we live with this goal, we balance needs with limits. This makes life sustainable for future
generations too. So, the human goal is not just personal — it uplifts all.

✅ 17. What is the meaning of universal human order?


What is its scope? How is the family order related to
universal human order?
Universal human order means a society where all people live with trust, respect and
co-existence, regardless of region, religion or status.

Scope:
●​ Covers individual, family, society and nature.​

●​ Ensures peace and fairness everywhere.​

●​ Balances human needs with sustainability.​

Family is the base:

●​ Family teaches trust, respect, love.​

●​ Strong families create strong communities.​

●​ Families practise justice and sharing — the same values needed in society.​

So, the family order shapes the universal order. If families live with understanding, the whole
world moves towards peace and prosperity.

✅ 18. Why is education and sanskar the first human


goal? Distinguish between Sanskar and Education.
Education and sanskar together shape a person’s mind and behaviour. They are the first goal
because they build right understanding.

Education:

●​ Gives knowledge and skills.​

●​ Helps earn a living.​

Sanskar:

●​ Builds character, ethics and human values.​

●​ Guides how to use skills responsibly.​

Without sanskar, education may be misused. Without education, sanskar alone is not practical
in modern life. Together, they:
●​ Develop a responsible person.​

●​ Ensure right behaviour in family and society.​

●​ Lead to harmony and prosperity.​

So, education and sanskar must go hand in hand to fulfil the human goal.
