The student to teacher ration in our Ancient Gurukul system is 10:1 which when compared with some great universities of the world is at par or sometimes even better!

Infact it is even better at 5:1 when you take into consideration an assistant to the Guru. That was how advanced our thinking and our teaching practices were!
Now if someone looks down on our Vedic Education system, just show these comparisons and these figures.

It will surely shut them up for good. Take pride in our history and culture and our ancient educational systems and let them prevail once more in our country!
Let the information pass on as much as possible so that more people will be aware of our Sanatana Dharma’s greatness. 7/
