Abstract	The Vedic era established a transformative educational system in ancient India, centered on the Gurukul model, which prioritized holistic development through intellectual, moral, physical, and spiritual training. Defined by terms like Vidya, Gyan, and Vivek, Vedic education was a lifelong pursuit of wisdom and salvation, far removed from modern education’s focus on academic credentials. This paper explores the meaning, features, objectives, and methodologies of Vedic education, emphasizing its role in fostering character, civic duty, and cultural preservation. By drawing parallels to contemporary educational challenges—such as moral decline, student stress, and cultural disconnection—it argues that Vedic principles can reshape modern learning to create a more inclusive, meaningful system. The title Bridging Eras reflects the paper’s aim to connect ancient wisdom with today’s educational needs.
