This paper provides an in-depth exploration of the educational philosophy of Sri Aurobindo, illuminating the core principles that underpin his thought system. We conduct a comprehensive literature review of existing scholarship on Sri Aurobindo’s educational ideas, identifying key themes such as integral education, the spiritual dimension of learning, and the relationship between individual development and social progress. The study aims to elucidate how these elements weave into a holistic approach to education that is both innovative and relevant in contemporary discourse. Ultimately, we conclude with implications for current educational practices and suggestions for future research.
