“My idea of education is Gurugriha.
Without the personal life of the teacher,
there would be no education. One should live from his very boyhood with one
whose character is a blazing fire
and should have before him
a living example of the highest teaching.
In our country the imparting of the knowledge has always been through men of renunciation.
The charge of imparting knowledge should again fall upon the shoulders of tyagis.

“Education is not the amount of information that is put into your brain and runs riot
there undigested all your life. We must have life-building, man-making, character making assimilation of ideals. We want education by which character is formed, strength of mind
is increased, the intellect is expanded, by which one can stand on one’s feet. What we
want is Western science coupled with Vedanta, Brahmacharya as the guiding
motto and also Shraddha and faith in one’s own life”.
Swami Vivekananda's concept of Education

Swami Vivekananda’s definition of religion:

It is thus implied that there is Divinity all around us and through Education and Religion we should train ourselves to see perfection and divinity in the whole of creation. Only such an Education can build up character and manhood and offer scope for infinite expansion and evolution of the human personality.
