Swami Vivekananda was a Hindu monk and philosopher. Some of his key ideas about education included that education is about manifesting perfection that is already within, civilization comes from feeling the divine within, and the highest gift is knowledge. He emphasized purity, perseverance, concentration, bravery, morality, service to others, and seeing divinity in all people as important for students. He believed in India's spiritual heritage and potential if Indians embraced their diversity and worked to uplift all people.
My Ideas of Education - Swami Vivekanandasmaramanan
Swami Vivekananda critiques the education system of his time and outlines his vision for education. He argues that the current system provides a negative and fact-based education that lacks character building. It fails to develop students spiritually or morally. He advocates for an education system that develops the whole person, teaches practical skills, and instills Indian values and spirituality in students. Education should be accessible to all and taught through personal interaction between student and teacher.

Schools in Sweden
1. School system in Sweden
Since English Colonial masters have made us their slaves our
so called education is nothing but theirs…
Lets see what happens in All Swedish GOVT Schools.
Lets know what Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi and
Kanchi MahaSwamigal has to say on schools and education.
2. • The medium of instruction is Swedish – mother
tongue as way to arouse students curiosity.
• Classes till 9th only in School. Then they have a 3

taken by all teachers and principal and school

3. • Vegetarians will have special menu
• Every week, different classes will be in charge
to help the dish washing and cleaning
• School provides FREE, everything for learning,
including pencils, erases, books, notebooks or
anything that’s required in class room.
• If there are more than 5 students having a
foreign language as their mother tongue, then
they have a right to ask for one assistant to
help understand subjects in their mother
tongue.
4. • Every classes have got a TV and a DVD player and an
Over Head Projector.
• Students should maintain the books neat and have to
return them, back to school. Books will be handed over
to the next new students who come to the class.
• On the last day they clean any pencil marks in their
books before handing them back to school.
• Once a year towards the closing of school for the year,
all students will be engaged in cleaning the school

there are no corporate (mass) punishments.
• No marks and no grades either..
• Learning is made fun only in school level with no
exams and its associated pressures.
• All students learn compulsory music, a hand work,
cooking.
6. What Swami Vivekananda/Mahatma Gandhi and
Kanchi MahaSwamigal says
• My idea of education is personal contact with the teacher-
gurugriha vasa. Without the personal life of a teacher there
would be no education- Swami Vivekananda
• The foreign medium has caused brains fag, put an undue
strain upon the nerves of our children, made them crammers
and imitators, unfitted them for original work and thought,
and disabled them for filtrating their learning to the family or
the masses. The foreign medium has made our children
practically foreigners in their own lands. It is the greatest
tragedy of the existing system.- Mahatma Gandhi
