Abstract

Guru Amar Das Ji, the third Sikh Guru, profoundly shaped Sikhism’s ethos, as seen in his hymns in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. His educational philosophy transcends knowledge, focusing on spiritual awakening, moral integrity, and community service. He advocated for an inclusive society, challenging discrimination and emphasizing seva (selfless service) and ethical living. A pioneer of women’s rights, he emphasized meditation and simplicity for inner peace. His holistic approach integrates spiritual, ethical, and practical dimensions, inspiring timeless wisdom on education’s transformative power rooted in love and compassion. His vision, far ahead of its time, fosters collective well-being and spiritual fulfillment, embodying a profound, forward-thinking educational paradigm.
