    Abstract

    The Buddhist philosophy uses the metaphor of the second arrow to reflect upon the problem of clinging upon negative emotions that increase suffering and postpones an individual�s prospect of attaining peace, happiness and content. Education in the present context (not only because of the global pandemic of Covid-19 in particular but also due to the very nature of human life) needs to embrace Psychological Wellbeing. Only an education that is drenched in Psychological Wellbeing can rise to the epitome of purifier by being able to touch upon the inner world of an individual. It is an inescapable need for evolving humanity through knowledge that education in itself witnesses an anagnorisis of education as the new normal.
