Meticulously planned by the Mahagami Gurukul, a two-day seminar Vidyagama featuring eminent Gurus, experts, mentors and educators, put the searchlight on evolving the right pedagogical paths for imparting training, enabling the teaching and sustaining of traditional performing arts - which, from their emergence in the guru/shishya sampradaya, have, with changing times, come to be included within the folds of university education programmes. Specialising in Kathak and Odissi, the training methods and ambience within the Mahagami Gurkul are reminiscent of the time honoured guru/shishya conclaves. Celebrating 25 years of dedicated service, Mahagami has combined the practice of the art forms with equally intense research oriented programmes -with knowhow in Sastra and Prayog going hand in hand. Since 2019, involved in designing and implementing pedagogical paths for training within the folds of the university, MGM University as it is now called, offers music, theatre, dance, Indic studies, and ancient languages. And marking Mahagamis silver jubilee, Vidyagama threw up several models of guru/shishya training along with much information and food for thought. But whether it resulted in a definitive pedagogical blueprint, would be difficult to state.
