TEACHINGS & LEARNINGS AT VEDA PATASHALA

   


Veda Patashala was established for the study of the scriptures in the traditional Gurukula system. Veda Patashala's mission is to protect the Vedas and continue its propagation.

 The Veda Pathshala specializes in teaching the ancient Indian traditions: the Vedas. The school offers a four-year training program that teaches students from all over India how to conduct temple rituals: pujas and homas. The students learn the Vedic chanting.

 Vedic education focused on spiritual and religious values as well as character development. Students lived with their teachers in Gurukulas and learned subjects like the Vedas, Upanishads, and Vedangas. Teaching methods emphasized listening, contemplation, and meditation.

 There are four Indo-Aryan Vedas: the Rig Veda contains hymns about their mythology; the Sama Veda consists mainly of hymns about religious rituals; the Yajur Veda contains instructions for religious rituals; and the Atharva Veda consists of spells against enemies, sorcerers, and diseases.

 The oldest copies of any of the Vedas are copies of the Rig Veda and Atharva Veda. They are currently on display in the Bhandarkar Oriental Institute in Pune, Maharashtra, India.

 Scriptures say that Vedas are the very breathing air of God. Vedas preach from beginning to end about the general well-being of the society (Lokas Samasthas sukhino bhavanthu). It has been in practice from the days of yore, the recitation of Vedas. Hearing of Vedas purifies us.

 One of the most important financial lessons from the Vedas is to live within your means. The scriptures emphasize that an individual should never spend more than they earn and avoid taking on excessive debt.

\The Pathashala System of Education consists of Veda and Sanskrit as two dimensions of traditional system education. But the general nomenclature was kept as “Sanskrit”. The Sanskrit Patahshaala used to provide Vedic Education along with Sanskrit education also.

 At the patasala, students are taught the Vedas from its basic level to Krama in a span of eight years. At this stage, they are conferred the title “Kramapaati”.

 Ancient practices such as Vedic chanting can provide a sense of peace and connection. In conclusion, Vedic knowledge has much to offer in modern times, with its teachings and practices providing a valuable framework for understanding the self and the world, developing inner peace, and promoting compassion and empathy.
