Included in their curriculum were the special arts of dancing, archery as well as yoga and pranayama and yamas (social moral ethics) and niyamas (personal moral ethics). They would then return to their parents and society with their skills. Famous of all was Rama and his brother Lakshman as told in the great Indian Literature "RAMANAYAMA" (one of the oldest Indian texts of mankind).
