Abstract
This study examines the primary role of the system of education and raising of the young generation in the context of the globalization process in the conditions of the digital information society on the ground of spirituality to play an important factor. The introduction states national development and social stability would be supported by pillars of spiritual maturity and moral culture. Nevertheless, there is a knowledge gap in the area of how institutions providing education combine the aspects of spiritual education with modern pedagogical and technological developments. This research employs a qualitative, critical approach rooted in pedagogical and sociocultural theory. The article explores the dynamics between schools, families, and community-based organizations in cultivating healthy responses to risk through spiritual resilience (“spiritual immunity”) and moral consciousness in our youth. They divide its functions into three interrelated components: developing scientific understanding of values, regulating emotions and encouraging moral social activity. The findings reveal that spiritual education coupled with the innovative pedagogical tools like case studies and creative thinking techniques enhances the students critical thinking and emotional intelligence. These curriculum improvements will help youth develop the skills to ward off harmful ideological seepage and prevent misinformation through the integration of media literacy and national ideological content. It suggests a sustainable education when knowledge, ethics and cultural identity are integrated in a harmonious manner. Together they create a model of moral development which includes strengthening family-school partnerships, teacher efficacy in spiritual instruction, and youth participation in arts and culture. The study therefore, implies that rather than just an academic instructional facility, the education system should transform into an energetic organization of spiritual and moral development.
