Keywords.
Value, tradition, spirituality, culture, education, national culture, feelings, morality,
lifestyle, religion, customs and traditions.
Personal development cannot be imagined without spirituality, without a spiritual and
cultural heritage. Spiritual development cannot be understood without the advancement of
human society. One is closely related to the other. For this, every person must be active in
social processes. A truly perfect person does not put his own interests above the interests of the
people, he always cares about the people. All the qualities and values in a person do not form
by themselves, but rather are manifested in the relationships between people. People can be
different by nature, there are those whose hearts are as wide as a river, as pure as spring water,
generous, kind, philanthropic, and do not know what a grudge is. Because the environment
surrounding him has such good qualities. There are also such categories of people who are
selfish, only pursue their own interests, are stingy, and are also resentful. Such people are
considered spiritually poor. Regarding the upbringing of spiritually mature people, our first
president I.A. Karimov[1] said: “In order to raise a well-rounded person, it is first of all
necessary to raise the integral cooperation of the family, the neighborhood, society and the state
to a higher level. The family is the foundation of society, the neighborhood is the cradle of
national values. In a harmonious family, in an enlightened neighborhood, in a humane society,
intelligent young men, intelligent girls, and perfect children who will live as glue all their lives
grow up.”
Spirituality cannot be imagined without such human qualities as morality, decency,
humanity, goodness, and kindness. The main feature and tasks of spirituality are to form moral
norms such as humanity, nationalism, patriotism, goodness, and selflessness in a person.
Morality, morality, and humanity have been the main criteria in Eastern science and
philosophy, in governing society and the state. The scientist V. Alimasov, who studied
Confucianism, writes in this regard: “Confucianism puts forward a humanistic idea and
approach that governing society and the state depends on the moral and spiritual education and
improvement of a person (king, ruler, official) himself. The issue of improving not socio-
political institutions, but the person himself is put at the center of research”[2].

Valuable thoughts on good behavior, ethics, decency, goodness, and humanity can be
found in the Avesta, as well as in the works of Al-Farabi, Al-Bukhari, Al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Sina,
Al-Biruni, Yusuf Khos Hajib, Ahmad Yassavi, Husayn Voiz Kashifi, Alisher Navoi, Babur,
Sufi Alloyor, Mashrab, and Abdulla Avloni. Their scientific and theoretical value has been
studied and highly appreciated by researchers[3].
The process of spiritual development of society is, firstly, the assimilation of spiritual
and moral values, heritage created by our people, our nation; secondly, the manifestation of the
human qualities of the individual, the strengthening of humanity in society. Thus, the process of
spiritual development itself is manifested in the form of spiritual and moral qualities, humanity.
This leads to its harmonization, that is, the process of spiritual development, with universal
human values. “We,” says I.A. Karimov, “paying great attention to the restoration and
development of the uniqueness of national culture, we assume that the process of national uplift
and national development is inseparable from the ideas of world culture, universal human
values. The history and culture of the Uzbek people are a structural and integral part of
universal civilization.”[4] Therefore, the spiritual development of society ensures coherence,
harmony, and integration in national and universal human development by demonstrating and
establishing moral and humanistic qualities in society. Most importantly, it allows for the
manifestation and development of the most noble and noble moral and spiritual qualities in the
individual.
The spiritual development of society, like the spiritual world and formation of an
individual, is a complex, sometimes contradictory phenomenon that cannot always be measured
by a single criterion or standard. Its manifestation and formation do not always depend on the
will of the individual, or even the social environment.
Every nation has its own traditions and values, which serve as a spiritual factor of this
nation. In particular, our people, which has its own rich history, have their own traditions and
values, which have been formed within the framework of their national mentality and have been
passed down from generation to generation as spiritual values for centuries. We can observe
this in the educational manifestations that exist in the family. It is also manifested in its new
forms today.
In this regard, I.A. Karimov said: “… The future begins today. If we do not pay
attention to the issue of education now, the future will be lost. We will spare nothing in
education. Spiritual and moral purification, faith, honesty, piety, honor, kindness and such truly
human qualities do not come by themselves. Education lies at the heart of everything.”
Protecting today's youth from destructive ideas becomes the central problem of this education.
In this regard, it is necessary to emphasize the place of our traditions and values, which have
come to us as an educational heritage from our ancestors. One of our Eastern national values is
that children should be kind to their parents and unconditionally obey everything they say.
There are people in life who work day and night to raise their children, raise them to
adulthood, and make them happy, but when the time comes, the children become incapable of
supporting their parents. This indicates that the spiritual environment in the family is not well-
established, that the child has not been taught to learn a trade from a young age, to work hard to
take care of himself, his family, and his children, and that the child has not developed human

feelings such as respect for his parents and relatives. In any case, an educational approach based
on traditions and national values is required in raising children. There is a saying in our people
that “you reap what you sow.” Whatever seeds parents plant in their hearts during the process
of raising children, they will later taste the bitter or sweet fruits themselves. Relationships based
on trust and respect between parents and children are another manifestation of the strength of
the family.
Indeed, strengthening the moral and legal aspects of national and religious values serves
to form a complete person and create a civil society. Indeed, each nation has its own unique
heritage that has been historically formed and has passed the tests of life. Spiritual heritage,
national and religious values, having found their place in social life, in the spiritual
development of the individual, have arrived, firstly, as a heritage created by past generations;
secondly, spiritual heritage has been enriched on the basis of science, knowledge, discoveries;
thirdly, religious values have been passed down from generation to generation, having entered
the consciousness and worldview of people through propaganda based on sacred books.
The scientific and theoretical foundations of our study were highlighted, stating that the
process of formation of spiritual culture as a complex social phenomenon is inextricably linked
with national, religious, historical, moral and legal factors, and in this sense, national and
religious values are not only the historical and spiritual heritage of our people, but also
important factors in the upbringing and formation of a harmonious personality.
The formation of spirituality in any person takes place in connection with material and
spiritual needs. In turn, the spiritual needs of a person are inextricably linked with his national,
religious, ideological and ideological upbringing. At the same time, material needs are related
to the material goods necessary for people's lifestyle. In this sense, the process of formation of
human spiritual culture is clearly manifested in the harmony of material and spiritual needs.
The process of the formation of spirituality is based on the science, culture, education, moral,
aesthetic, political, legal relations and wealth that humanity has acquired throughout its history.
The formation of a person's spiritual culture requires consistent and systematic research and
development in today's global era, when various mass cultures are emerging.
The concept of spirituality is complex and multifaceted in its essence, content,
ideological and educational aspects. In this sense, not every form of human conscious activity
and thinking capacity can be spirituality. Therefore, along with spirituality, people with
conscious thinking also show signs of spiritual poverty and backwardness. If there were no
spiritual backwardness and spiritual degradation in society, there would be no need to struggle
to form spirituality.
Determining the strategic directions of the socio-spiritual development of an entire
nation or country, relevant goals and tasks in this regard, and illuminating the signs and
characteristics of a person and his spiritual world on the basis of new views has acquired a
special relevance at each stage of historical development. It is undeniable that such views and
attitudes are created on the basis of many years of life, socio-political experiences of an entire
people and nation, and an analysis of events taking place in the world.

Also, the importance of religious education and upbringing, religious values, in the
formation of individual spirituality has been great. Islamic philosophy, in particular, the ethical
rules of the philosophy of Sufism, which were formed and emerged on the basis of religious
teachings, regarding the perfect upbringing of a person, have a strong influence on the
formation of individual spirituality. In order to form a spiritual culture, first of all, it is very
important today to study scientific knowledge, religious teachings and historically formed
values in the cultural heritage of our people and to enrich their content.
