| Video Discription | A wonderful Talk by Sushri Sahana Singh on the ancient Indian education system and her recently published book on the same topic: "Educational Heritage Of Ancient India". The speaker discusses in detail the glory of advance education system of India and the well developed universities with huge campus and a well accomplished library, where scholars from various nations used to come for studying. She gives references from Mahabharata and other renowned scriptures where the ashrams of many scholarly Rishis trained young men and women in many fields of education such as: Vedas, literature, grammar, logic, mathematics and sciences. After completing education Gurus used to encourage students to travel far and wide to gain experience. The debates among scholars was a great way to propogate knowledge to the common people. Many invasions by Turks, Mughals and many others over the years slowly affected the entire system and much of the heritage was lost. By the time British came to India the scientific, logical approach towards knowledge had reduced to nominal and the economy was in poor shape, thus giving an impression that India needed western education. About the speaker: Sushri Sahana Singh is an author and commentator based in Texas, USA. She is an environmental engineer by qualification who writes on a variety of issues including Indian history, water management and education. Her two books on India's educational heritage have been appreciated for awakening Indians to the role played by India in spreading knowledge around the world.
