The Great Indian Way Of Education
Today’s (17 May15) Nithya Satsang on Kathopanishad from Varanasi, Paramahamsa Nithyananda expands on Shanti Mantra, the peace invocation of Kathopanishad, which sets the context of vedic education system. The real meaning of ‘Education’ is awakening your possibility into reality. He clearly draws lines between the western non-involvement narrative education, where only words, actions are given from teacher to student, devoid of teacher living the teachings 24/7 – causing students to have insecurity, problems with life; and the great Indian vedic way of education or Gurukul that transmits knowledge from bio-memory of teacher to student, where the Master and student live together, such an education becomes Life Science, just like Lord Rama and Arjuna absorbed the knowledge in just 10-11 years in Gurukul. Announcing his vision for Education System, he declares reviving the Gurukul, original education system, which is about demonstration, experientially living the knowledge, like erstwhile Vedic Universities-Takshila, Sarada Peetha, Nalanda, Naimisaranya, where millions of students studied under one-roof from the illumined teachers. On behalf of Veda Mata (mother of knowledge), He gives a clarion call inviting the teachers who want to revive the education system to join Nithyananda Gurukul. Shanti Mantra, Kathopanishad auṁ saha nāvavatu | saha nau bhunaktu | saha vīryam karvāvahai | tejasvi nāvadhītamastu mā vidviṣāvahai || auṁ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ ||
