KAPILDEB SARKAR, TANMAY SARKAR

Abstract

Education is an important tool that is applied in the contemporary world to succeed; as it mitigates the challenges which are faced in life .Every country has some definite aims of education for the overall progress of the nation. Because an aimless education is like a boat without a rudder and it can do nothing for the development of the nation. Beside this, there should have some means of education. In any country, the total system of education is inquired, analyzed, scrutinized and evaluated by its philosophers. India is a “punya bhumi” (i.e, sacred land). In nineteenth century India produced various great educational philosophers who contributed much to resurge the education system. The sanjivni of their educational philosophy has placed new life in the dry bones of education system. Swami Vivekananda was one of the thinkers whose educational thoughts are unique, ameliorating imitable and feasible. In the present paper, the researcher takes a look at the Vivekananda’s view towards concepts, aims and means of education.
