 Every child has a genius hidden within. Vedic Education develops the total brain physiology, thereby unfolding the creative genius of every student.
Nithyananda Gurukul, is a school with a vital difference. Here children while learning computers and modern advances in science and technology, simultaneously adopt measures for the growth and sustenance of not only the body and mind but also of the spirit.
In the Gurukul, children live as ashramites, take part in spiritual activities that are compatible with their age and educational requirements. Traditional methods like Guru pooja, yoga and meditation help the youngsters develop a healthy and respectful attitude to elders and teachers, which is conspicuous by its absence in today's society. While yoga keeps the body fit and flexible, meditation bestows on them the power of concentration and studious study habits so essential for children.
Every child is facilitated to be accountable for his action, to be a good listener, to be sensitive to the needs of the others. They are taught to excel in any walk of life they might choose for themselves in the future..
Life at the Gurukul is as challenging as is joyful. The children here grow to be integrated individuals, well learned, balanced and capable of facing the toughest challenges in life.
The child is brought up in an ambience where it is allowed to express and experiment on its own and thus is not caught up in fear and peer pressure, the bane of conventional schooling. Thus, the Gurukul system of educationoffers the right kind of environment for the child to flower into an integrated individual.
Nithyananda wants to revive the ancient Vedic education system whereby children live and learn under the guidance of enlightened masters and are given the keys to enlightenment.
NEED FOR GURUKUL
Considering the state of the current education system and the advantages of Vedic Education, it was clear that the best solution to address the issue was to put together a combination of the best of both the modern syllabus and Vedic Education. Started in 2005 Nithyananda Gurukul is already showing amazing results. Many students from various economical and social backgrounds are studying in the school which is slowly and steadily helping in raising children with strength and character. Just like how a strong foundation is the basic necessity for building a strong sturdy building, a solid well rounded educational background will help become the foundation on which the children will grow to become trustworthy citizens of the society.
“Every child is a flower waiting to bloom
and radiate its unique beauty and fragrance.
Facilitating this should be the sole work of education.
Children should be empowered to be knowledgeable, intelligent,
creative,
loving and blissful,
with no comparison with the other.
Education should teach one to cooperate; not compete.
Children of Nithyananda Gurukul will flourish in the inner and outer worlds.
Here, they will not absorb the negativity of the outer world
and will maintain the purity of the inner world radiating
Nithyananda – Eternal bliss!
-Paramahamsa Nithyananda
