Study of Madhyastha Darshan and its Effectiveness on Student's Behavior and Sanskar

Abstract

Madhyasth Darshan is propounded by shree A. Nagraj ji. Darshan claims that it is possible to establish values and ethics by education in the human. By studying the darshan with dedication and in continuity we can prepare a human being who is having holistic perspective to leave life. Youth developed the vision of self-reliance, behavioral and integrated personality and ensures trust within self. Darshan touches all aspect of human leaving like विचार(contemplation),व्यव्हार(Behavior) and कार्य(Work). To study the Madhyasth Darshan generally there are two approaches 1)learn via introductory Jeevan Vidya workshops and 2)deep study(अध्ययन सत्र) workshops. When students or any human undergoes the workshops (shivirs) of the Jeevan Vidya, their संस्कार and behavioral aspects slowly starts changing and it is reflected in their daily life expression. By observing the daily life behavior of students and via means of questionnaire based surveys we can identify the changes in their thought pattern. We can also collect the testimony about what kind of changes they found in their personal life, relation within family and relation with nature. This way the outcome becomes measurable. Students request one to two introductory Jeevan Vidya workshops of approximately 60 hours and then two to three deep study (अध्ययन सत्र) workshop of approximately 60 hours each. In between these workshops during free days, students’ needs to allocate at least one to two hours to contemplate on the content of workshops regularly. After completing this course of action students need to allocate 10 to 15 hours of documentation and write the outcomes of the content. If students follow this routine of workshops and daily revision session then the mentioned result can be achieved in it. This way we can achieve the goal of IKS by developing the human being with holistic vision and lifestyle, which leaves with harmony with self, family, society and nature. Thus way we can build the universal undivided family order on earth.
