Abstract

The whole message of Buddhism is to urge upon us that we have been born to die in the past but we need not be born to die in future. There is a hope in the thought that some of the ideologies contending for supremacy today also do not think that ideological disputes cannot be settled by war. It has become clear that physiological and biochemical studies alone cannot give us comprehensive account of nature and potentialities of man. We need a new philosophy of man based on his achievements in all cultural, traditions which can form a subject of further exploration and experimental study. Laws are meant for men and extent to which the tools of law can be utilized or dispensed with depends on what man really is and what he can make of himself.
