Abstract
Sri Aurobindo, within his life span, wandered into many fields of human life. Whenever he is stationed in the field of life, he has devoted his heart and soul to it. Education, teaching, national liberation movement, Sadhana, wherever he involved himself, he maintained his uniqueness. But these different aspects of his working life seem in many ways contradictory and mutually exclusive, but in reality, they are not. The main formulas of his thought in different fields took a coherent individual form in his mind. Sri Aurobindo can therefore be considered the embodiment of the modern age of Integral thought. This Integral tendency can also be observed in his thinking about education that is Integral Education. Sri Aurobindos educational thought was born from his deep spiritual consciousness and sharp scientific analysis. Therefore, Sri Aurobindo has made a meaningful combination of Western and Eastern perspectives in his concept of Integral Education. Aurobindos philosophy is not recommended by any religious denomination. On the basis of basic human religion, he proposed this doctrine, which is applicable to the people of any religion, in any country. Thus, Sri Aurobindos doctrine of education can be applied to building a universal education infrastructure for the modern world.
Keywords: Sri Aurobindo Ghosh, educational viewpoint, integral education, philosophy of life, educational philosophy and goals of education.
