Timeless tutors
The Hindu
From shaping warriors to moulding heroes, these exceptional teachers from mythology live on even today.
Possibly one of the most famous mythological teachers, Dronacharya was an expert in military arts and a master of divine weapons. He taught the Kaurava and the Pandava princes art of warfare. He shared a special bond with Arjuna, the immensely talented Pandava brother who was known to be his favourite student. An illustrious mentor, Drona’s name is relevant even today; the Indian government’s honour for outstanding coaches in sports is called the Dronacharya Award.More Related News
