The Guiding Philosophy at the Gurukul

The Gurukul has been established with the noble objective of reviving the ancient Indian Guru- Shishya parampara in the field of training for civil services aspirants. While recognizing that it may not be possible to recreate a Gurukul in the traditional sense of the term in modern, urban environments; we at IAS Gurukul firmly believe in the sanctity and sacredness of the Guru- Shishya (i.e. Mentor- Student) relationship which we seek to foster at the Gurukul..

Neither we at the Gurukul nor other modern- day teachers can really claim to be “Gurus” in the truest sense of the term. A person can claim to be a Guru only if he:.

  • a). Is fully sincere in his commitment towards his students.
  • b). Possesses knowledge which can enhance the students’ patterns of thinking and life experiences.
  • c). Can assist his students define and achieve their life- goals.
  • d). Has an unquenchable thirst for new knowledge, new learning and new insights.
  • e). Firmly believes in transmitting all his knowledge to his students and hides nothing from them and
  • f). Takes pride when his students excel and surpass their Guru.
  • g). Is accepted and respected as a Guru by his students.

  • Humbly, we at the Gurukul are striving towards becoming such Gurus.

    Pedagogy at the Academy

    The Academy is a unique experiment – as a fraternity of educators and students striving together in the pursuit of a common goal. The Academy will be distinguished by the fraternal atmosphere it fosters, in which the students and faculty inspire and enrich each other as co-learners. With a passion to excel, the Gurukul is raging with the dynamism of a river that incorporates the oldest sources of knowledge with the latest, cutting- edge technology in the field of education.

    The faculty at the Academy recognizes that its task of nurturing young minds is like that of nurturing flowers; with all the will and skill required for performing such a delicate task. The aim is to set the students free from the rigidities of highly ritualized, bland and indifferent teaching that they usually experience in Universities; where there is a lot of teaching but very little learning. This is the gap that the Academy strives to remove by promoting real learning, i.e. learning about learning as the first step: with the ultimate aim of making each person bloom like a flower and carry the aroma of freshness of his or her ideas and creativity wherever they go.
