Light Of Learning
Description: -
Nalanda: The Light of Ancient Learning is a compelling and richly detailed exploration of one of the world’s earliest and most prestigious centers of higher education. Founded in the 5th century CE during the Gupta dynasty, Nalanda University flourished as a beacon of knowledge, drawing scholars, monks, and students from across Asiafor over 700 years.
This 15-chapter book takes readers on a journey through the rise, glory, decline, and eventual revival of this legendary institution. Through vivid storytelling and historical accuracy, the book delves into Nalanda’s grand architecture, extensive libraries, rigorous academic curriculum, and the vibrant intellectual life that once thrived within its walls.
It introduces the great minds who studied and taught there— including luminaries like Nagarjuna, Dharmapala, Xuanzang, and Yijing — and examines Nalanda’s role in shaping Buddhist philosophy, logic, medicine, astronomy, and global education networks.
The narrative also confronts the tragic destruction of Nalanda by invaders in the 12th century and the long silence that followed. Yet, it ends on a note of renewal and hope, detailing the rediscovery of the ruins and the founding of the modern Nalanda University in the 21stcentury — a bold effort to rekindle the spirit of ancient learning for a globalized world.
Whether you're a student of history, a lover of ancient civilizations, or simply curious about the roots of higher education, Nalanda: The Light of Ancient Learning offers a timeless reflection on the enduring power of knowledge and the resilience of cultural heritage.
