Abstract: | From Chapt. 2, Educational Profile: In the early times education was in the hands of religious leaders and priests, and it was encouraged with endowments by kings, chiefs, noblemen, merchants and the like. The Brahmanic system of education which was prevalent in other parts was also in vogue in Bidar District. The teaching was largely oral and the curriculum included the learning of grammar, literature, mathematics, logic, astronomy, philosophy, the Vedas and other religious lore, Yoga, Ayurveda, etc, and sometimes the art of dancing, singing and other fine arts. The students had to remain in the gurukulas of their teachers under rigorous discipline and had to imbibe a love of knowledge and a spirit of devotion to duty. Agrahars and Brahmapuris were settlements of learned men. Education was imparted in monasteries and temples also. The medium of higher education was Sanskrit. Crafts were taught by father to son and to other apprentices generation after generation. While Viharas were the centres of Buddhistic learning, monasteries and Basadis were the centres of Jain learning. Mainly Prakrit and Sanskrit were used by them as media. The Jainas preached to the people through Kannada and also composed works in Kannada. |
