A wonderful Talk by Sushri Sahana Singh on the Magnificence History of Ancient Indian Education System, based on her recently published book “Educational Heritage Of Ancient India“.

In this speech Sushri Sahana Singh discusses in detail the glory of advance education system of India and the well developed universities with huge campus and a well accomplished library, where scholars from various nations used to come for studying. She gives references from Mahabharata and other renowned scriptures where Indian multi-disciplinary center of learning existed in several forms such as forest ashrams, universities, temple patasala taught by many scholarly Rishis who trained young men and women in many fields of education like advanced Vedas, literature, grammar, logic, mathematics and sciences. After completing education Gurus used to encourage students to travel far and wide to gain experience. The debates among scholars was a great way to propagate knowledge to the common people.

Many invasions on India slowly affected the entire system and much of the heritage was lost. By the time British came to India the scientific, logical approach towards knowledge had reduced to nominal and the economy was in poor shape, thus giving an impression that India needed western education.
