Conference on Gurukula Education and Bharatiya Shiksha

At the core of Bharatiya Tradition, Gurukulams flourished as centers of holistic education. Here, under the guidance of revered gurus, eager disciples embarked on a quest for knowledge that encompassed not only academic subjects but also spiritual wisdom, ethical values, and practical skills essential for harmonious living. In these sacred spaces, sages and scholars guided eager minds on a journey of self-discovery, imparting not just knowledge of the scriptures and sciences but instilling values of dharma, integrity, and service.

The Gurukulam system, with its emphasis on the guru-shishya parampara (teacher-disciple relationship) and experiential learning, remains a timeless beacon of holistic education.

Bharatiya Shiksha comprising of not just the philosophical framework but also rigorous scientific frameworks and rooted in ancient texts such as the Vedas, Upanishads, and epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana, embodies the synthesis of spiritual wisdom, ethical conduct, and practical knowledge. It speaks to the interconnectedness of all life, the harmony of existence, and the pursuit of higher truths beyond the material realm.
