Foundational Pillars Of Education – In Support Of Varnasrama Dharma

This Book Centers On Knowledge And Education, In Particular The Relevancy, Effectiveness, Objectives And Future Of Traditional Educational Systems.

Traditional Education By Nature And By Definition Forms The Pillars, The “Foundational Pillars Of Education”, Of An Ideal And Perfect Society. Without Such An Education The Society Remains Unstable, Unpredictable, At Times Dangerously Chaotic And Thus Always Ever Changing. Looking At Modern Education, Or Any Education That Is Devoid Of These Foundational Concepts And Principles, We Can Understand How Critical And Urgent The Need To Reintroduce Such Standard Knowledge, Training And Education Is. These Perennial Teachings Were Taught And Continue To Be Practiced In Traditional Gurukulas (Home Of The Guru Or Spiritual Master) And Pondok Pesantren(Residence For Practicing Students) As We See Respectively In India And Indonesia.
