Sadvritta’s Role in Creating a Compassionate and Ethical Society in the Present Era
Abstract
In today's rapid and interconnected environment, upholding ethical values and nurturing compassion in social interactions has increasingly become a concern. Sadvritta, an ancient Ayurvedic ethical conduct code, presents timeless principles that can act as a moral guide in the current age. This paper examines the significance of Sadvritta in developing a compassionate and ethical society, highlighting how its fundamental values - such as honesty, non-violence, respect for others, and self-control - can tackle the social dilemmas and ethical issues we confront today. By incorporating Sadvritta into everyday life, individuals can aid in fostering harmonious communities, encouraging empathy, and nurturing individual and communal well-being. This research underscores the necessity of revitalizing these ethical principles to form a balanced, peaceful, and morally grounded society in the contemporary world.
