A STUDY ON AWARENESS OF EDUCATIONAL THOUGHTS OF JIDDU KRISHNAMURTI AMONG STUDENT TEACHERS
Keywords:
Awareness, Educational Thoughts, Jiddu Krishnamurthy, Student-TeachersAbstract
In India, Krishnamurti come out a rather forbidding philosopher who advocated no crutches of either a spiritual or an emotional nature and certainly did not allow any psychological or intellectual attachment to himself as a teacher. Moreover, he seemed to be setting a rather difficult task, especially since Hindu tradition in India allows for ritual, belief and unquestioning devotion to a teacher as instruments for psychological, spiritual and social well-being. Hence, the researcher intended to do research work on educational thoughts of Jiddu Krishnamurti among student teachers by conducting experimental study. For this purpose he has taken 30 male and 30 female student-teachers with rural and urban background from science and humanities. The questionnaire was designed based on respondents’ biographical details like name, age, gender, habitat and student educational background of subjects. The results reveal that there is no significant difference in the awareness of educational thoughts of Jiddu Krishnamurti between male and female, rural and urban and science and humanities educational background of student teachers in Banswada Mandal, Nizamabad District.
