Today, most education is about marks, exams, and stress. But what if learning could be more human and heart-centred? That’s what Darshan Kumar Sudan talks about in his eye-opening book Panchkosha in NEP 2020.
This book is based on the ancient Indian idea of Panchkosha, the five layers of human life. Sudan shows how we can bring these ideas into modern classrooms to make learning deeper and more complete. It’s not just about facts or marks; it’s about shaping a full human being.
The Five Layers Made Simple
Sudan clearly explains how the Panchkosha model fits with the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP). The five layers are:
- Annamaya (body),
- Pranamaya (energy),
- Manomaya (mind),
- Vijnanamaya (intellect), and
- Anandamaya (inner joy).
Instead of just pushing grades, Sudan says we should also focus on helping students grow emotionally, think ethically, and understand themselves. He shares real examples and shows how this model fits into today’s education system.
Why This Book Stands Out
- Connects Indian traditions to today’s education system
- Written in simple language that anyone can follow
- Solves real classroom challenges
- Useful for teachers, parents, and curriculum makers
About the Author
Darshan Kumar Sudan is more than a writer. He’s a passionate educator who has studied both psychology and Indian philosophy. He has real experience in schools and deeply believes that education should help us grow as people, not just as workers.
This book is a result of his deep thinking and his desire to improve education in India. He brings ancient knowledge into real classrooms with care and clarity.
Who Should Read This Book?
- Teachers who want to teach beyond the textbook
- Education leaders working with NEP
- Parents interested in their child’s full development
- Students and scholars of Indian thought
- Anyone who cares about meaningful learning
Panchkosha in NEP 2020 is more than just a book; it’s an invitation to bring purpose back into teaching. At a time when students feel lost and teachers feel tired, this book reminds us that education can still change lives if we’re willing to go deeper.
If you believe learning should touch the heart as well as the head, this book is for you.
