💥UPSC 2026, 2027 UAP Mentorship - June Batch Starts

Elucidate the human values and their types with special reference to Patanjali’s classification of virtues. 10 marks

Mentor’s comment-

  • Start by explaining what Values are.
  • In the body explain values in detail with examples. Then move onto discuss the types of values. Elaborate that Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra makes complete sense that helps us inculcate four primary virtues i.e. Maitri= Friendship; Karuna= Compassion; Mudita= Joy; Upekshanam=Indifference. These virtues are fundamental for our own favorable disposition or mental peace. Give examples to explain the importance of values in general.
  • Conclude with way forward.

      Hi KG
      Good intro.
      Explaining the types of human values through flow chart is really appreciable.
      Patanjali’s classificantion of virues is well discused.
      Briefly conlcude that values are so indissolubly woven into human language, thought and behaviour patterns that they have fascinated philosophers for millennia,
      Overall a good attempt.
      Keep writing.
