3. A quick view of History of Education Evolution in India
The Rishi scholars of India, over thousands of years developed the knowledge base for
this civilization. This knowledge has been transmitted both in the oral and written
form from generation to generation through the Gurukula system of education. The
education system of the land is the delivery mechanism of the knowledge as
understood by that civilization. A community's view on education depends on their
knowledge of sciences, understanding of man as a material being and or a spiritual
being. The thought of the land / times defines the education effort.
The Gurukula system of India was indeed a beautiful tree, a vriksha. The mode of
education in this Gurukula system is looked at in some detail. Two officers of the East
India Company studied the Gurukula system of India, imported some of the simple
systems of instructions and teaching methodologies and introduced the same in
England as "New system of schooling ".
A regular question asked is, if India had such a good system of education, why did they
go awry? The reasons for the decline is analyzed, as to why our education system did
not evolve with changing times. The British when they governed India uprooted this
time honored system of education and instead introduced the Macaulay system of
education, which we are presently following. For more information and history, visit

change the world." Nelson Mandela
