growth and development of individual as well as for the unobstructed
functions of the society. In a greater sense, education is a life long
process and could not be confined to the program of giving knowledge to
children in schools or other institutions. So far as the life of Individual is
concerned, educating goes on from birth till the last breath. Every one
learns something new day by day throughout life by going through various
experiences and activities. So the ancient tradition says that a student
acquires only one fourth of education from his guru and the remaining part
of education by his own intelligence, and from his classmates and by the
passage of time.
In the wider sense the aim of education is not the mere passing of
information by the teacher or the acquisition of knowledge by the child but
the total development of one's personality. Thus it has been stated that
education consists of all those experiences that promotes the individual's
over all development. And education is that cultural process by which an
individual frees his self from the fetters of ignorance. The Seers of the
Upanisads believed that education must endeavor at developing that
moral character and powers of intellect which ultimately leads to the state
of liberation from all miseries.
