Comment on Bhagavad Gita: Ideas for Modern Management by bhattathiri

Very good article on motivational Management.
Indian Vedic contribution is a reservoir of Vibrant Information and Harmonious Creativity. May the Womb of Nature Embrace all with Tranquil Blessings from this day forward. Let this attract one’s attention affecting them Positively. It is a Sanctuary of the Self , a Creative Venue which serves as an Enduring Expression of Lightness, where a peaceful Atmosphere with Sunlight Flows and serene atmosphere prevail.
The ancient Hindu philosophy of keepiing mind and body for the well being, has entered the managerial, medical and judicial domain of the world. Today it has found its place as an alternative to the theory of modern management and also as a means to bring back the right path of peace and prosperity for the human beings. Let me bow to Indian Maharishi Veda Vysa with folded hands who helped in removing the impurities of the mind through his writings on Vedas, impurities of speech through his writings on puranas, and impurities of body through his writings on other sacred texts. .
In the storm of life we struggle through myriads of stimuli of pressure, stress, and muti-problems that seek for a solution and answer. We are so suppressed by the routine of this every life style that most of us seem helpless. However, if we look closely to ancient techniques we shall discover the magnificent way to understand and realize the ones around us and mostly ourselves. If only we could stop for a moment and allow this to happen. May all beings be happy (Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu).

sankrit book fair should be conducted often.It is not true to say that vedas are not life.Vedas only give us life.Vedic life only eradicate the ecological imbalances for all the time. “SARVEY JANAAHAA SUKHINO BHAVANDU”.

Comment on Why Samskrit? by Daniel Tkach

Daniel Tkach — Fri, 27 May 2011 16:05:38 +0000

namaste! My name’s Daniel, I belong to a community of Krsna devotees in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I recently started studying samskrta after purchasing the firt level of the correspondence course from Samskrta Bharati. I was asked to create a pamphel to promote a short course on Sanskrit, I would appreciate any ideas you can provide.
Mr Krishnaswami is right in saying that there are no good methods, Samskrta Bharati course is great and very didactic but there’s still a lot of room for improvement, there are some parts that lack explanation, and besides, this course seems to be one of the very few ones that are really pedagogically well designed. Hence the great need of someone with both didactic knowledge and Sanskrit knowledge to develop such a course. I have didactis knowledge, it would be good to form a group to start developing a course that can reach everyone. Reciting stotras is not motivational for most people, any language like English is learn in a couple of years, why not lear spoken sanskrit and go from there? The thing is that usually courses offer list of vocabulary to be memorized, that’s not the way!! Language must be in context, and graduated from easier to more difficult, language is to communicate, there’s the need of a communicative course in sanskrit.
I wish I could create the basis to establish a community of samskrta lovers here in Argentina!

Comment on Bhagavad Gita: Ideas for Modern Management by Sunder

Sunder — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 04:25:33 +0000

Great article. But the answers are still not clear.Not so much to challenge but to understand and find a way to reconcile the apparent conflict in my mind. Let me clarify that I believe in the theory that we should work without just the results in mind. What is still not clear to me is this. The Gita advocates doing your duty, doing your work. However I beieve humans are not designed that way. Without being
motivated how do I do any work ? So the dilemma is “Should I do what I like” or “Do I like what I do” ? I have understood the Gita to advocate the latter. But if that is so then i will not be drawn to the work I do leading to boredom etc.

Regards,
Sunder

Comment on Bhagavad Gita: Ideas for Modern Management by bhattathiri

The Bhagavad-Gita, written thousands of years ago, enlightens us on all managerial techniques leading us towards a harmonious and blissful state of affairs in place of the conflict, tensions, poor productivity, absence of motivation and so on, common in most of Indian enterprises today – and probably in enterprises in many other countries.

The modern (Western) management concepts of vision, leadership, motivation, excellence in work, achieving goals, giving work meaning, decision making and planning, are all discussed in the Bhagavad-Gita . There is one major difference. While Western management thought too often deals with problems at material, external and peripheral levels, the Bhagavad-Gita tackles the issues from the grass roots level of human thinking. Once the basic thinking of man is improved, it will automatically enhance the quality of his actions and their results.

The management philosophy emanating from the West is based on the lure of materialism and on a perennial thirst for profit, irrespective of the quality of the means adopted to achieve that goal. This phenomenon has its source in the abundant wealth of the West and so ‘management by materialism’ has caught the fancy of all the countries the world over, India being no exception to this trend. My country, India, has been in the forefront in importing these ideas mainly because of its centuries old indoctrination by colonial rulers, which has inculcated in us a feeling that anything Western is good and anything Indian, is inferior. Gita does not prohibit seeking money, power, comforts, health. It advocates active pursuit of one’s goals without getting attached to the process and the results.

The result is that, while huge funds have been invested in building temples of modem management education, no perceptible changes are visible in the improvement of the general quality of life – although the standards of living of a few has gone up. The same old struggles in almost all sectors of the economy, criminalization of institutions, social violence, exploitation and other vices are seen deep in the body politic.

Long prevailing misconception, entangled with cast, is the root of Sanskrit hate in India. Let us look at it like any other language.
