These lines tell us that the best of all the things is Character and it is the basic pillar for
nation building. In my essay, I am going to discuss about the basic principles required for a good
character and true nation building.
Goodwill is the first and the basic principle for nation building. Goodwill means solidarity,
friendship understanding. Never in the history of India was there more pressing need for goodwill
in all relations national and individual-than; there is today, with the political condition of India,
distracting the finest elements in our social life and diverting the forces that exalt a nation, into
channels that degrade it. India increasingly calls upon every Indian, whether by birth or adoption,
to practice goodwill, positive and definite, to the end of uniting the warring classes and; interests.
All the goodwill available needs to be mobilized against the forces of darkness and dissension, to
drive them back and purify the public life. If every patriotic Indian will think of those with whom he
is, at variance and replace his inimical or negative attitude with a positive attitude of goodwill, then
we shall make ourselves; and those around us happier, and India will be well on the way to
happiness and prosperity.
At this point, we recognize that social transformation cannot be separated from spiritual
transformation. Morality is also an important principle for nation building as it defines the
difference between good and bad and gives the wisdom to choose the good. The importance of
values and morals are the code we live by in a civil and just society. Our values and morals are a
reflection of our spirituality; our character. The cultures brought together in our nation also have
high ethical standards. Traditional Indian cultures were modelled on morals. Those who trace their
origins to other countries also recognize high concepts of personal and social responsibility. This
can be accomplished only when we instill in the children a deep feeling of commitment to values
that would build this country and bring back to the people, pride in work that brings order, security
and assured progress.
A nation needs different resources to develop itself scientifically. Humans can make the best
use of available natural resources by utilizing their knowledge, skills, and technology. This task, they
can accomplish only if they are physically and mentally fit. Sometimes, people get into bad practices
like drug abuse and alcohol addiction which not only impairs their mental and physical health but
also ruins his family and social ties. This problem can be resolved by the process of de-addiction. If
parents and teachers informally talk with the children and keep them focused on their career, this
problem can be solved. If we stop drug abuse today and set an example before our future
generations, then this can be entirely terminated.
A person with all these qualities embed in himself, will not be afraid to face problems. He will
expect and accept them as part of life. He or she will not give unnecessary importance to anything
that happens in life. Such a person will be a true patriot for nation building.
