  Abstract: India has always boasted of a rich tradition in the area of teaching-learning and education system since ancient times. Even people from other nations such as Europe, The Middle East and Portugal came to India to get quality education. The main focus of Gurukul System of Education of ancient India was to impart learning in natural surrounding where the shishyas (student) and guru (teacher) lived with each other with brotherhood, humanity, love and discipline. The Guru (teacher) imparted the knowledge of everything such as religion, Sanskrit, scriptures, medicines, philosophy, literature, warfare, statecraft, astrology, history, politics, mathematics, leadership and many more. The learning was not only to read books but correlating it with the nature and life. It was not memorizing the facts and figures and writing the answers in the examination but it was based on Vedas, rules of sacrifice, grammar, derivation, understanding the secrets of nature, logical reasoning, science and skills necessary for an occupation. Now-a-days there is a total absence of personality development, creation of moral conscience and ethical training. One of the biggest flaws about this education is that it is more commercial in nature rather than institutional concept that should impart holistic learning to the students. It devotes very less time for physical, mental, emotional and ethical aspect which encases a student in a better human being. The recent new education policy is also focus more on experiential learning, skill development, creative, logical reasoning, to nurture each child’s potential, flexible learning , innovative ability and to empower the children. All these goals are going to be achieved with incorporating Gurukul education system.

  Abstract: The purpose of writing this article is to make everyone aware about the importance of traditional education system with the amalgamation of modernity. If we see the great people of that time, they were more learned. He studied not only Indian religion but also mathematics and science. He studied in Gurukulas and Ashrams, where he was trained to become a good human being who possessed many skills. In modern times students are studying with new technologies, electronic gadgets and prescribed syllabus etc. Even though digital mediums of learning have many advantages, traditional education is still the key to success. An attempt has been made to write this article on the basis of practical study and own experience. How interesting it must have been to get education in the traditional Gurukul tradition and in the company of a Guru. Religious texts, books, articles shown from time to time give us incredible information about this subject. Learned something from there, learned something from my parents and converted it into an article. In the traditional education system, students learned through direct instruction and lectures, seatwork, listening, and observation. Work based on textbooks, lectures, and individual written assignments. The modern education system emphasizes progressive learning and project-based learning using any available resources, including student-led exploration, group activities, the Internet, the library, and external experts. The limitation of this education system is that amidst the new dimensions of the modern system, traditional education has been left behind. In today's time, there is a dearth of people who promote it. In this, instead of one and one two, one has to work with the thinking of one and one eleven. This article is completely written by me. I have tried to put my feelings on this paper. I believe that in times to come, along with modern education, traditional values should also be taught to children in every educational institution. With this, not only will they be able to work on a good position, but will also empower the nation by becoming excellent citizens.

The Gurukul system is based on the principles of discipline, respect, and service to the guru and the community. The Gurukul system has a number of benefits for students, including holistic education, strong moral character, lifelong learning, and community service. However, it also faces a number of challenges, such as cost, access, and lack of government support. Despite these challenges, the Gurukul system of education is still relevant in today's world. It can provide students with a holistic education that prepares them for the challenges of life. It can also help to instill in them strong moral character and a commitment to community service.

Some key aspects of the Bhartiya Gurukul education system are described in subsequent sections. Gurukul Structure: The system is based on the Gurukul structure, where students live and learn together in a residential setup. They stay with their teachers, known as gurus, who not only impart academic knowledge but also serve as mentors and guides in various aspects of life. Holistic Curriculum: The curriculum in a Bhartiya Gurukul focuses on a wide range of subjects, including academic disciplines, arts, sports, yoga, meditation, and character building. The goal is to provide a well-rounded education that nurtures every aspect of a student's personality. Teacher-Student Relationship: The relationship between teachers and students is highly revered in the Bhartiya Gurukul system. The gurus are respected figures who inspire, guide, and support the students. They establish a close bond with the students and provide personalized attention to their individual needs and talents. Experiential Learning: Bhartiya Gurukuls emphasize experiential learning rather than rote memorization. Students engage in hands-on activities, discussions, and practical experiences to deepen their understanding of concepts and develop critical thinking skills. Value-Based Education: The Bhartiya Gurukul system places great emphasis on imparting moral values, ethics, and virtues to students. They are taught to uphold principles such as honesty, compassion, respect, and integrity, which are integrated into their daily lives. Physical and Mental Well-being: Physical fitness and mental well-being are given equal importance in the Bhartiya Gurukul system. Students participate in regular physical activities, yoga, and meditation to maintain a healthy lifestyle and develop self-discipline. Community and Social Responsibility: Students in Bhartiya Gurukuls are encouraged to develop a sense of community and social responsibility. They learn the importance of serving others, being environmentally conscious, and contributing positively to society. Individualized Learning: The Bhartiya Gurukul system recognizes that each student has unique strengths and weaknesses. Teachers tailor their teaching methods to suit the learning style and pace of each student, fostering individual growth and self-confidence. Character Development: Character development is a key aspect of the Bhartiya Gurukul system. Students are encouraged to cultivate virtues like humility, perseverance, self-discipline, and empathy, which play a vital role in shaping their overall personality. Lifelong Learning: The Bhartiya Gurukul education system instills a love for learning and a thirst for knowledge in students.

  Abstract: Education is the most effective tool you have for making a difference in the world. Maintaining proper students' health and setting a best educational system is among top priority of every country because students will be the ones who shape future of a nation. Gurukula is a compound word made up of the two Sanskrit word’s guru means a teacher and Kula means family or home. In Gurukula, Shishya/ student were taught and educated by their guru while residing in the same home/ school as or near to the guru. Also, one of the biggest problems with modern educational system is their commercial institutional concept. Personality development, development of moral conscience and ethical training are completely absent. It devotes a very small amount of time to physical exercise and the growth of other skill sets that can help a student become a better person. The fundamental goal of Gurukula was to teach pupils in a natural setting where the shishyas may live in harmony with one another and develop their intelligence and discipline via brotherhood, humanity, love, yoga, meditation, arts, sports, and singing. All of these, aids in the development of their personalities and boosted their self-assurance, sense of discipline, intellect, and mindfulness—qualities still important in modern times to tackle the challenges of the world. The present article review's objective was to examine data that showed “why Gurukula are the best setting for encouragement of children's well-being?”
