Social awareness is not merely an occasional feeling or a high- bounding jargon. It is a benevolent philosophy. No country can really prosper if her people do not cultivate social awareness. It is a pragmatist philosophy that instills in one fellow-felling, co-operation and a feeling of warm mutual indebtedness.
We live in. society, society sustains us. Society is a big family. As we are indebted to our family for bringing us up tenderly and careful we must owe our indebtedness to society. From our formative years, we must train ourselves to recognize the unrestricted contribution of the society for molding our lives effectively and meaningfully. It is through social awareness that we can detect the realms of social incompleteness and then proceed to fulfill that void. Society needs healthy citizens. So, we must, from our seeding period, acquire health and keep maintain a sound body. Society needs educated people. So, we must, from our early student life, acquire sound education. We should always keep the adage in mind: means sane in corpore sano meaning ‘Sound mind in sound body’. Society needs obedience and ideals. So we must be obedient and persevering and open-minded and idealists.
Besides these, we must, as socially aware, dedicate ourselves for the general upliftment of our countrymen. We must put all our endeavors to eradicate mass-illiteracy and diehard superstitions. We must educate our neighbours to maintain sanitation of the locality. We must learn to uphold the honour of our country. We must reform ourselves for from infringing the democratic rights of other persons. Sound awareness, thus gives us perfection as a man or a unit of the Society.
