Holean Education – The Paradigm For Thee

Priyavrat Thareja, D D Sharma, P B Mahapatra

Abstract


If the mantra of the ’Total Human Evolution’ (THE) paradigms through Education, then it must have been
implemented as ’Holean’. Thareja1, (2010) explores ’holean’ as medium of a worthy education which is
simultaneously whole, holy and Lean. This calls for attributes which together contribute towards total
competence develpment (TCD) of a person, no short of being holistic and holy. The releavance of Godliness and
goodness in education has been reiterated by various philisophers for rendering a total effectiveness. This is
synergistic with being holy. Together with freedom and creativity the growth factors will proliferate only when
the education is lean. The paradigm of a wholy built up learning through Lean principles is knit around the core
thinking of freedom, aesthetics, and a learning environment. A few institutuions/ countries have already
implemented each of these independently for commendable results. However for implementing them in a holy
way, diificulties have been experienced. But when the people are oriented with lean thinking, the
implementation will be improved. This work revolves around the paradigm of a successful devlopment of ’the
total human development through education.
Keywords: Total Human Evolution thru’ Education (THEE), Holy, holonic, holistic, sustainable education,
Krishnamurti, religiousness in education.
