Background: Yoga is an ancient science of consciousness that has aided in the upliftment of humans throughout their lives. The purpose of this study is to analyze the social and moral behavior values in modern life. Spiritual enlightenment along with, this aids in the improvement of their lifestyle. In this study, the survey method was employed as a strategy, and the questionnaire was used as a tool. Aparigraha means non-possessiveness (practise of non-attachment). Hutam means offering. Aim: To develop and validate of Aparigraha and Hutam scale. Methodology: This research is mostly about tool development, and it includes 9 Aparigraha items and 5 Hutam items. From the Marlowe-Crowne social desirability scale, there are 13 items on social desirability. The whole sample (N=205) is made up of 103 females, 98 males, and four people who don't want to be identified by their gender. There includes a reliability test as well as exploratory factor analysis. It uses both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, as well as a pre-design technique. Result: Two factors can be extracted which is higher than one eigenvalue value. The internal consistency of the two constructs, whether they are operated together or individually, is reliable. The social bias, on the other hand, is sensitivity (α =0.466). Factor loading is low for these items. As a result, the items should be reframed to improve their performance. Conclusion: In this study, we can extract two factors, but due to low community value we conclude that some of the items are extracting the construct but some of the items should be reframed restructured.
