The Vedic system

The Brahmanic system was a domestic system of education. The forest home of the Guru was the school. The pupils were residing in the home of the Guru after performing the ceremony of initiation and were treated by him like his son. The pupils were looked upon as members of the Guru’s family and had all the consequent privileges and responsibilities. They were taught in a homely atmosphere.


Buddhistic Education System

The Buddhist system was a monastic system of education. The monasteries and viharas where Bhikshus were residing developed into educational institutions.In the Brahmanic system one educational institution worked quite independently of the other. There was no common organisation for different educational institutions. Each Guru ran his institution in the way he liked, though certain features were common to all institutions. But in the Buddhist system there was a common organisation. It was a well federated system of education. Even though each institution was independent, yet it had to obey the orders of the ‘Sangh’ or the common organisation.
