In the 贬补谤峁�a肠补谤颈迟补, 叠腻峁嘺 has depicted 贬补谤峁�a鈥檚 reign revealing lots of sociocultural information of the contemporary society. Value of education and education system of that society are also delineated sufficiently in the 贬补谤峁�a肠补谤颈迟补.

Education is one of the inevitable necessities of human race. The word 鈥榚ducation鈥� has been derived from the Latin word 鈥楨ducare鈥� which means 鈥榯o bring up鈥� or 鈥榯o develop鈥�. So, the basic meaning of education is 鈥榯o develop鈥� or so to say, upliftment of humane values. Through education we get acquaintance with the accumulated experiences of human life. It is very difficult to give a definite meaning of the term 鈥榚ducation鈥�. In Sanskrit, 惫颈诲测腻 implies education, which comes from the Sanskrit root vid' meaning to know. It means knowledge, education, learning, science, lore, scholarship etc. The famous Indian classical poet 碍腻濒颈诲腻蝉补 choose the term 惫颈诲测腻 as the subject of study. According to him by practicing 惫颈诲测腻 one can please others.^[1] In the age of the 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补 it was unimaginable that there could be any education without moral, virtue and value.

Therefore, it was found in the 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补鈥�

鈥淣othing gives us such unfailing insight as education.鈥�^[2]

Some of the various definitions and its importance in human life as found in different Sanskrit books are given bellow-

[a]. In the 驰腻箩帽补惫补濒办测补蝉尘峁泃颈, it is stated that 鈥淓ducation is that which makes man assume good characters and useful to the society.鈥�^[3]

[c]. According to 艢补峁卥补谤腻肠腻谤测补 鈥淓ducation is the self realization.鈥�^[5]

When one reviews these various meanings of the word 鈥楨ducation鈥�, one finds that education is a complex idea.

The Indian concept of education is well summarized by the University Education Commission or R膩dhakrishnan Commission 1948-49 as鈥�

鈥淓ducation according to Indian tradition is neither merely a means of earning livelihood nor is it only a nursery of thought or, a school for citizenship. It is initiation into the life of spirit, a training of human souls in the pursuit of truth and practice of virtue. It is a second birth (dvitiyam janam).鈥�^[6]

Again, according to 膧nundoram Borooah, the famous composer of English-Sanskrit Dictionary, Education means 蝉补峁僺办腻谤补岣�, which has been given by (your) father with great care.^[7] According to the famous Dictionary 叠颈艣惫补办辞峁�a-艣颈办峁Ｄ� is a part of Veda.^[8] The most common Indian word 艣颈办峁Ｄ� is derived from the Sanskrit verbal root 艣腻蝉' which means 鈥榯o control鈥�, 鈥榯o discipline鈥�, 鈥榯o instruct鈥� or 鈥榯o teach鈥�.
