Analysis:

A. THE ESSENCE OF VALUES

It teaches them the best way to live that can be beneficial to individuals as well
as the people around them. Value education also helps the students to become
more and more responsible and sensible. It helps them to understand the
perspective of life in a better way and lead a successful life as a responsible
citizen.
B. PHENOMONOLOGY OF MORAL VALUES
Moral phenomenology is concerned with the elements of
one's moral experiences that are generally available to introspection.

C. CHARACTERISTICS OF MORAL VALUES

Integrity: sticking to your moral and ethical principles and values. Kindness: being
considerate and treating others well. Perseverance: persisting in a course of
action, belief or purpose. Politeness: using good manners, acting in socially
acceptable ways.

D. METAPHYSICS OF MORAL VALUES

Kant proceeds to motivate the need for the special sort of inquiry he calls
a metaphysics of morals: “That there must be such a philosophy is evident from
the common idea of duty and of moral laws.” The moral law must “carry with it
absolute necessity.”

E. KNOWLEDGE OF VALUES
Knowing is the most general factive mental state of which perceiving is a
species. Knowledge is valuable because we value a match between mind and
world. Since knowledge is not decomposable, we need not explain
why knowledge is more valuable than mere true belief, or more valuable than
justified true belief.

F. MORAL VALUES
Morals in literary works usually reflect truth values according to the author's view,
and that is what it is delivered to the reader. ... In addition, moral of the story is a
”clue” that the author deliberately delivers about various things related to life
issues, such as attitude, behavior, and sociable manners.

G. PERSONAL VALUES
Personal Values are “broad desirable goals that motivate people's actions and
serve as guiding principles in their lives” Personal values are desirable to an
individual and represent what is important to someone.
H. THE VALUE OF THE HOLY
Value of the Holy Refers to the sacred and hallowed beliefs, some things which
are the objects of worship or veneration. Holy meant the divine or that which has
sanctity directly from the absolute sphere. ... Personal value Refers to one's own
individual and exclusive value.
ABSTRACTION:
These are the explanation upon each of the nature of values.
Nature of Values Descriptions/Explanations
Value-based education is an approach to
teaching that goes hand-in-hand with values.
At Vedaant Vidhyakulum School
Indore, the best boarding school in Indore,
we strive to create a healthy learning
environment that raises the levels of
academic accomplishment.  We focus on
instilling in students the basic values of life.
Just to cite a few examples:
 Individual values for perfect personality
development.

A. THE ESSENCE OF  Social values to develop students as

socially responsible citizens,
VALUES understanding their rights and duties
towards society and the country.
 Values of relationship – respect,
maintain and strengthen personal, social,
friendly and family relationships.
 Be secular. Follow your faith, but
respect other religions. Refrain from
being communal which destroys the
harmony and divides society.
 Gender equality. No discrimination on
the basis of gender. We groom our girl
students to become confident and
independent individuals. Similarly we train
our boy students to respect girls.
 Practical and relevant application of
information technology. To be aware and
updated on the technological
advancement in all fields is important.
Nevertheless, we advise students to
restrict usage of internet, mobile phone
and social media. Use them when
necessary to enhance value. Beware of
the negative impacts.

Phenomenological rigor must be maintained;

 the philosopher cannot speak with any
certainty about the structures embedded in
various particular values without knowing in
advance what values are in general. It is the
latter task that, if I have been successful, has
B. PHENOMONOLOGY been accomplished in this dissertation. It has
OF MORAL VALUES been well worth the effort, and it is to be
hoped that this project will lead to future
investigations into the givenness of values in
a more specific way. Like values themselves,
phenomenology always leads its adherents
onwards toward greater and greater
possibilities.

Ways to Inculcate Moral Values in Your Kids

1. Practice What You Preach

Children learn from the people around them,

so in order to teach your kids good values,
C. CHARACTERISTICS you must model them in your life, first. You
OF MORAL VALUES may verbally explain numerous values, but
your kid will only pick up the ones you
showcase through your own behaviour.

2. Narrate Personal Experiences

Personal experiences are like stories, and all

kids love hearing stories. Share stories from
your own life, where abiding by a moral value
had a positive experience in your life, and
your child is bound to understand better.

3. Reward Good Behavior

Come up with a system, where you reward

your child for using these values in his/her life.
Praise and rewards are positive reinforcement
that works incredibly well in shaping children.

4. Communicate Effectively
 Converse with your child, each day, about
how these moral values work in day to day
life. For example, you can discuss an article in
the newspaper and ask your child what
he/she would have done in the same
situation.

5. Monitor Television and Internet Use

There’s no escape from the television and

internet, but you can definitely monitor what
your child watches. Make sure the show
promotes good values and morals, and is
appropriate for his/her age.

D. METAPHYSICS OF Metaphysics is about principles of action and

MORAL VALUES the earlier works put forward (various versions
of) the principle of justification of principles of
action (i.e. the categorical imperative), the
crucial question for an adequate
understanding of Kant’s practical philosophy
is about the relationship between the
principles of right and virtue and the
categorical imperative. First, an interpreter
needs to be clear whether the fundamental
principles of right and virtue are derived from
or justified by the imperative; or whether they
are, or can be seen as, relatively independent
from it. Secondly, a related question concerns
the role of the imperative in Kant’s practical
philosophy as a whole. According to the
textbook interpretation, Kant believed that the
imperative can by itself answer all central
questions about morals. The Metaphysics, by
contrast, suggests that the imperative is one,
although central, among many elements of
moral thinking.
E. KNOWLEDGE OF Values are learned throughout the life cycle.
VALUES In early childhood value learning is
influenced by a process of interpersonal
identification with the parents. Parents’
behavior toward each other and interaction
with children represents certain values by
explicit or implicit way. Parents tell children
 what is right and what is wrong, but also give
example of the behavior directed to solve
everyday problems.
F. MORAL VALUES
Acceptance: welcoming others whose ideas
and practices differ from your own

 Compassion: understanding the suffering of

others or self and wanting to do something
about it
 Cooperation: helping your family and
friends, returning favors
 Courage: willingness to do difficult things
 Equality: believing everyone deserves
equal rights and to be treated with respect
 Fairness: acting in a just way, sharing
appropriately
 Generosity: willingness to give resources,
help or time to others
 Gratitude: showing appreciation to others,
letting loved ones know what you appreciate
about them
 Honesty: being truthful and sincere
 Integrity: sticking to your moral and ethical
principles and values
 Kindness: being considerate and treating
others well
 Perseverance: persisting in a course of
action, belief or purpose
 Politeness: using good manners, acting in
socially acceptable ways
 Respect: showing consideration for the
worth of someone or something
 Responsibility: being reliable in your
obligations
 Self-control: staying in control of your
words and behavior
 Tolerance: having a fair and objective
attitude towards different opinions, beliefs or
practices
 Trustworthy: reliably doing what is right
even when it is difficult, being true to your
word
G. PERSONAL VALUES Personal values are the things that are
important to us, the characteristics and
behaviors that motivate us and guide our
 decisions.

For example, maybe you value honesty. You

believe in being honest wherever possible
and you think it’s important to say what you
really think. When you don’t speak your mind,
you probably feel disappointed in yourself.

Or maybe you value kindness. You jump at

the chance to help other people, and you’re
generous in giving your time and resources to
worthy causes or to friends and family.

Those are just two examples of personal

values out of many. Everyone has their own
personal values, and they can be quite
different. Some people are competitive, while
others value cooperation. Some people value
adventure, while others prefer security.

Values matter because you’re likely to feel

better if you’re living according to your values
and to feel worse if you don’t. This applies
both to day-to-day decisions and to larger life
choices.

H. THE VALUE OF THE Value of the Holy Refers to the sacred and
HOLY hallowed beliefs, some things which are the
objects of worship or veneration. Holy meant
the divine or that which has sanctity directly
from the absolute sphere.

Value of the Holy Examples are:

1.value of cult
2.Value of religion
3.Value of worship
4.Value of sacrament
5.Value of prayer
6.Value of rosary
7.Value of the mass
8.Value of the church
Application:

Reflection:
There are many values that I personally hold close to my heart. Many of which
are often hidden from plain sight, while others are blatantly obvious. The ten values
listed above are the values that, at this moment in my life, are the most important to me.
Being twenty-two and realizing that I’m still developing and growing as both a person
and a professional, this exercise was exceedingly difficult for me. Included in this list are
values that I wouldn’t have considered to be my own a mere twelve months ago. On the
same accord, there are some included in this list that I can’t say for certain will be
included in the same list twelve months from this moment. Life is a dynamic process;
the following is me trying my best to make sense of life in its current state.

My behavior is impacted everyday based on these values. Many were instilled in

me early by my parents and grandmother, while I learned others during my many years
on the soccer fields. My most resounding value and the value that tops my list is loyalty.
It is something to be earned and should never be given or received without sound
reasoning. It determines my actions in almost every aspect of life and often times opens
doors to novel opportunities. Loyalty goes hand and hand with the eighth value on my
list, trustworthiness. Without earning the trust of other people, this world would be a very
lonely place. Composure and realism are the second and third values on my list.
Although they might not appear to be related, I see them as intricately intertwined.
Being realistic means expecting any number of possible outcomes. If things don’t go the
way I planned, I realize that I must press forward and the only way to do show is to
demonstrate composure and resolve. In all of history, panic has never solved an issue
alone. Being realistic has taught me to accept the inevitable and has helped me to avoid
many failures.
Decisiveness, mindfulness and perceptiveness are three others included on the list.
Separate, these values very important attributes, but together is when they become
most powerful. These have helped me make many important decisions throughout my
life. A strength of mine is the ability to be able to intentionally and non-judgmentally
consider all ideas and emotions of a given moment and all those involved, and act
decisively and effectively. When I find myself making snap decisions without being
mindful of the opinions and ideas of others, things usually go awry. Sacrifice and
intrepidness are the next two on the list. Everyone makes sacrifices in life, some larger
than others. No one has ever reached their potential without making a sacrifice. The
sooner we realize this, the easier it is to be the best person we can be. I have reminded
myself of this many times throughout school; I must be intrepid and not give up. I must
never forget the sacrifices myself and the people around me have made for me to be
where I am. Lastly, gregariousness has always been an important attribute for me. I
love being in groups of people, especially those who make me a better person, and I
feel as though I am at my best when surrounded by others.

I could never expect the people around me to share the values I hold dear. The
most I can do is respect the differences and try to understand their values. We learn the
most from the people who are the most different from us. Being able to except others for
who they are is a trait that everyone, especially a physical therapist, should possess.
We will see many different patients that have many different personal values. Part of
being a professional is handling others who are different than you in a professional way.
If a patient that I am assigned doesn’t value one of my values, I should use that
opportunity as a learning experience. For example, if a patient isn’t a realist and has
unrealistic view of their progress, I would handle it in one of two ways. First, I would let
them know that their progress might take longer than they currently expect. I would
remind them that time is the best healer and that even though they might feel better
they must be at their baseline to be considered healthy again. If they don’t respond
positively to this, I would let therapy run its course and realize that not everyone views
their progress as realistically as I do. During their sessions when a progress note is due,
I would show them how far they’ve come and remind them how far they have left to go.
Keeping things in perspective would be important in this situation.

During my career, I will encounter far more people who are different then me
than those who are similar to me. Those encounters will prove to be very important. My
values will change and as I grow things that are important now may become much less
important. As I mentioned before, life is a dynamic process full of changes of heart and
mind. However, among the things that will never change is my openness and
receptiveness to those around me, my willingness to accept them as they are, and my
honesty about whom I know myself to be.
