The study of moral questions pertaining to both individual and group interaction is known as ethics. The phrase is occasionally used in a broader sense to refer to problems in the humanities and sciences, as well as to ideas about religion and cultural values. The professional domains that address ethical matters encompass law, trading, medical, and business, among others. In order to decide what is the best course of action to follow, or at the very least, to try and explain the relative values of various activities, ethics and values indicate the degree of importance of various things. The only ways that the basics of life are taught are through language learning and the widely read literature that is available to everyone. Self-reflection and introspection only ever make space for more growth—generally speaking, in all domains, but especially from an ethical one. The evolution of language is the only factor influencing the creation of a global culture. This essay focuses on how ethical principles guide the evolution of every stage, with a particular emphasis on the formation and maintenance of Indian culture. The epics like the Ramayana, Bharatha, and Bhagavatam, as well as other works of literature like the Upanishads and Aaranyakas, have set the foundation for Indian philosophy, lifestyle, and the upholding of ethical values. Their language has also contributed to an ongoing renaissance, enriched with opulent literature. With a focus on the historical influence on value enrichment, this paper sheds light on the methodical and conceptual analysis of ethics and values through reflection and introspection in Indian literature and culture.
