Students were joining Gurukul at age of 5 or 6 years. They completed their education in the care and guidance of teacher. Saint Kabeer also sings about the greatness of teacher. He told us, “ If teacher and God both give sakshatkar, first of all I bow to guruji. Because I dont know about God with out teacher”. Teacher imparts the knowledge about greatness of God to the student. He emphasizes the extent of super-power in this universe. With-out teacher we cant learn. For any child, the first teacher is his\her mother. After the mother, it is the family that functions as a teacher and inculcates human and moral values. The teacher in the class room is honored with the third position as instructor and guide for any child. aygrt.isrj.net/UploadedData/3570.pdf ETHICAL VALUES IN TEACHING PROFESSION IN THE PAST AND PRESENT by T.
