It includes various disciplines such as: Traditional Sciences (Ayurveda, Yoga, Jyotish and Vastu sastra); Philosophical and Spiritual Traditions (Vedanta, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism); Artistic and Cultural Expressions (Indian Classical Music, Indian Classical Dances, Natya Shastra and Visual arts); Mathematics and Astronomy (Vedic mathematics and Ancient Indian astronomy); Language and Literature (Sanskrit language and literature and regional languages and literature). Teacher education field trying to revamp its courses according to the needs of NEP 2020 has much to integrate from traditional Indian system. In order to fulfil the goals of wholistic development of the child, traditional fields of yoga, philosophy, Ayurveda and jyotish hold much significance.
