Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: IIPA Digest Description: 4(4), Oct-Dec, 2022: p.22-32. In: IIPA DigestSummary: Valuing a value is born out of deeply conscious personal choices. It arises from a basic human psychology that you would not want to do unto others what you would not have others do unto you. This comes out of an expectation of certain comfort-giving behavior and attitude from others. The reverse corollary is also applicable. For man being essentially self-centred, holding or choosing a certain value, over many other values is a matter of individual comfort. When you are hurt by someone having cheated you which created in you a sense of discomfort, then speaking the truth becomes a chosen value, not because it is an universal, ethical good, but because personally one does not want to suffer or be affected by hearing a lie. This constitutes the psychological order of human values upheld as Dharma or ethics, when also seen from a non empirical perspective. Religious texts, upbringing, code of conduct are prescriptive and confirmatory of what is right and what is wrong. The fundamental and foundational values of man wanting to be treated well and with good and rights-based behaviour, not causing hurt, injury, violence or neglect is at the basis of collective, ethical and universal human values.- Reproduced
