Aurobindo's teachings

Sir, — This is with reference to "Concepts behind Sri Aurobindo's teachings" ( Aug. 12 ). There is not only a need to accommodate Sri Aurobindo's `value education' in the curricula, but also to `reform' the entire system on his lines of `Integral Education.' Education must involve community development programmes, the importance of physical exercise in the holistic-spiritual education system, and a pedagogy which brings about changes in one's attitudes relying on self-change.
