Abstract

Education is a continuous process. If fosters our sensitive and vision which thrives national unity, enhance the potential for scientific methods to be implemented and brings freedom to understanding and contemplation and education is often in our constitution and achieving the goals of socialism secularism and democracy enshrined in our constitutions is helpful. We have to see that Our education system is built under the direction that can help establish the social system we want, which can give them the desired stability in a changing environment. Every person must know about his social environment related to himself and the society in which he lives. Whatever our area of expertise, Buddhism is a vital and human institution in our life. Therefore keeping in mind the reality, we have to be aware of the values. Mahatma Gandhi has given importance to human character-building. According to him, the aim of all knowledge (education) should be to build character. I have considered character building to the appropriate cornerstone of education.
