The Educational Paradigm Envisioned by Sri Aurobindo: It's Implications of Present Education System

Author(s) Mr. Ruman Debnath

Abstract Abstract: Aurobindo Ghosh (1872-1950), commonly known as Sri Aurobindo, was a philosopher, yogi, guru, poet and eminent educationist. His educational philosophy emerges from his integral philosophy, which envisions education as a dynamic process of self-realization and the manifestation of the divine potential inherent in every human being. For Aurobindo, education is not merely a means for intellectual cultivation or social efficiency but a sacred journey toward the evolution of consciousness. His idea of Integral Education harmonizes the physical, vital, mental, psychic, and spiritual dimensions of the learner, transcending the fragmented and utilitarian tendencies of modern pedagogical systems. Aurobindo’s educational philosophy advocates for the transformation of both teacher and student through a process of inward awakening and conscious growth. He expressed his educational ideas in the 19th century, yet his vision remains highly applicable to present day’s education system. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 emphasizes holistic development and experiential learning, which closely align with his philosophy of integral education and the discipline of yoga.
