Aurobindo's Educational Philosophy and its Relevance to the National Education Policy 2020: A Philosophical Exploration

The purpose of the research article is to explore the connection between Sri Aurobindo's educational philosophy and the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The article seeks to examine how Aurobindo's philosophy, which encompasses integral education, self-discovery, harmonious individual-society relationship, recognition of the multidimensional nature of human beings, and the role of spirituality, can enrich the implementation and understanding of the NEP 2020. The significance of exploring this connection lies in the potential for enhancing the transformative impact of the NEP 2020 on the education system. Aurobindo's philosophy promotes a holistic approach to education, emphasizing the integration of various dimensions of human existence, such as physical, vital, mental, and spiritual. By integrating these principles into the implementation of the NEP 2020, there is an opportunity to foster a more comprehensive and transformative education system.
