Guru-Shishya Tradition
The Guru-Shishya Tradition is an ancient Indian educational system where a teacher, known as a Guru, imparts knowledge and wisdom to a student, called a Shishya. This tradition emphasizes a close, personal relationship between the Guru and Shishya, fostering not just academic learning but also moral and spiritual development.
In this system, learning often takes place in a natural setting, such as a Gurukul, where students live with their Guru. The process is characterized by mutual respect, dedication, and a commitment to lifelong learning, ensuring that knowledge is passed down through generations in a holistic manner.
