Introduction
In The Sangh scheme of regeneration and consolidation of Hindu society, cultivating character and moral values is given a pride of place. Without this ennobling aspect of samskara, the other arenas of transformation like social harmony, social justice and improvement in living conditions are bound to remain unwholesome and often bereft of real benefit. A major focus of the man-making process of Sangh is on this aspect of character moulding.
Swami Chidbhavananda, a leading light of Hindu religious renaissance of yester-years in Tamil Nadu, addressing the trainees at the Sangh Shiksha Varga, once said: "The manmaking training you are receiving in Sangh is exactly the one that Swami Vivekananda had conceived of for our young men."
One who observes closely the Shakha-technique can easily understand how and in how many ways this man-making process at work in the Shakha manifests itself.
