Bhagavad Gita and Management World Management Lessons from India

The despondency of Arjuna in the first chapter of the Gita is typically human. Sri Krishna, by sheer
power of his inspiring words, changes Arjuna's mind from a state of inertia to one of righteous
action, from the state of what the French philosophers call "anomie" or even alienation, to a state of
self‐confidence in the ultimate victory of "dharma" (ethical action.)
When Arjuna got over his despondency and stood ready to fight, Sri Krishna reminded him of the
purpose of his new‐found spirit of intense action ‐ not for his own benefit, not for satisfying his own
greed and desire, but for the good of many, with faith in the ultimate victory of ethics over unethical
actions and of truth over untruth.
Sri Krishna's advice with regard to temporary failures is, "No doer of good ever ends in misery."
Every action should produce results. Good action produces good results and evil begets nothing but
evil. Therefore, always act well and be rewarded.
My purport is not to suggest discarding of the Western model of efficiency, dynamism and striving
for excellence but to tune these ideals to India's holistic attitude of "lokasangraha" ‐ for the welfare
of many, for the good of many. There is indeed a moral dimension to business life. What we do in
business is no different, in this regard, to what we do in our personal lives. The means do not justify
the ends. Pursuit of results for their own sake is ultimately self‐defeating. ("Profit," said Matsushitasan
in another tradition "is the reward of correct behavior." – Ed.)

ShahRukh – Gauri: The Real Love Story

Shahrukh’s personal story can never be complete if one were not to talk about his romance and subsequent marriage with Gauri Chhiba, the daughter of retired Major Ramesh Chhiba, who had been born a vegetarian, was a Hindu Brahmin, and even had a temple within his house. Shahrukh being a Muslim in India where religion plays a key role while deciding the destiny of marital alliances, his marrying Gauri whom he had met in 1984 and eventually married in 1991 was indeed a tough task to accomplish.

The relationship between the two had been kept under wraps, and understandably so because Gauri’s parents would not have accepted it. Or, so it seemed for quite some time even while the twosome continued to meet up for six long years. The youngest in a Punjabi joint family with around 15 members, that Gauri would marry someone from her community was a foregone conclusion.

As for Shahrukh, he was willing to do anything to get her in his life, and it is said that he had entered Gauri’s household by posing as Abhimanyu during the girl’s birthdayparty. Abhimanyu…. Who? Yes! The character that Shahrukh had just started to play in the television serial Fauji that was being directed by the retired Lieutenant Colonel Raj Kapoor. The serial based on life in the army had made Shahrukh’s character really popular, and people around even said that he looked quite a bit like Dilip Kumar when he attended the birthday party in Gauri’s house that day.


The story of Shahrukh and Gauri’s relationship continued to add a new chapter with every passing day, and not all of them were bliss-laden as is the case with all human relationships. He was tremendously, in fact uncomfortably possessive about his lady love, so much that he would pick up a quarrel with her even if she let her hair down… literally. Finally, Gauri lost her cool and realized that she wanted to get away from the emotional bedlam in 1989. Without informing Shahrukh, she came down to Mumbai with her pals just a day after the former had celebrated her birthday in his room by decorating it the best way he could have and giving her lots of presents.

It was when Gauri had left for Mumbai that Cupid shot that one decisive arrow. Shahrukh just had gone to the city of dreams where his love had gone, and he ended up telling everything to his mother who was supportive and open-minded as always. Not only did she give her son Rs 10,000, she also advised him to go to Mumbai and get his love back. Shahrukh went there with his friends, and what followed sounds like a chapter straight out of fictional romantic folklore.

In the huge city, he and his friends kept looking for Gauri, and especially around the beachees because of his awareness that she was attracted to them in a big way. On the last day of his stay in Mumbai, since he had run short of financial fuel obviously, a cab guy advised him to go to a place called the Aksa Beach. From there, they ferried across to a place called Gorai and, after searching frantically, managed to track her down when she was standing in the water! Once the duo saw each other, they embraced each other and started crying. That was the defining moment in their relationship, because it was clear to both of them that they need to be with each other all their lives.

The problem the couple apprehended was because of Gauri’s set-up that consisted of simple people who were loyal to Indian social norms and did not question the tenets of tradition: which, in this case, implied that having a son-in-law who belonged to a different religion. This was a thought that would have never crossed their minds. But the time when the twosome had to marry had to surface some day or the other, and that did happen in 1991. The couple went ahead and put up a notice for a court marriage which, according to the Indian marital laws, meant that their names were displayed in front of the court in a notice for one long month.

Shahrukh and Gauri had to hide the notice from their parents, so they did the most obvious thing. They gave a address and said it was their own. The poor fellow had to suffer the repercussions. The parochial among the Hindus made a group and shouted in front of his house, and so did their Muslim counterpart. During those 30 days, the life of his friend was absolutely miserable, but then both Shahrukh and Gauri did not have a choice because they were really concerned about the latter’s parents.

Those 30 days proved to be critical for the young couple. They worked hard towards convincing Gauri’s parents, and eventually managed to make them see their point of view. That they would have a court marriage after the notice period got over was decided upon, and it was on August 26 that this ceremony was finally solemnised in the court. They also got married in keeping with Hindu and Muslim traditions seperately. In fact, it was Gauri who insisted that they should have a Muslim wedding too, and the roots of a secular family set-up had been firmly established be them.

This was the time when Shahrukh was making his initial forays in Bollywood, and among his forthcoming films were Deewana and Raju Bangaya Gentleman while he was shooting for Dil Aashna Hai as well.

Gold is Golden

It's true.

The rich ARE getting richer.

Whether the economy is up or down and whether unemployment is high or low...
the billionaires of the world always seem two steps ahead of EVERYONE ELSE.

In fact, Forbes recently reported that over the past year alone, the richest people in
the world are now $1 trillion richer!

That's $1,000,000,000,000... or twelve zeros.

All the while, everyone else's retirement funds, investments, and salaries either remained
stagnant or dropped!
It doesn't just seem unfair.

It's downright infuriating!

And get this:

They're making their killing, right now, through ditching their stock portfolios!

That's right. The world's wealthiest people – guys like George Soros, Bill Gates, and
Warren Buffett – aren't using the stock market to expand their fortunes.

In fact, they're running from investments traded in ANY paper currency.

Instead, they're stocking up on as much precious metals as they can afford.

and GOLD is making HUGE money around the GLOBE

Fake Fake fake - OSAMA v/s OBAMA

Justice has not been done.
Because justice can never be done.
Death escapes all commensuration, all accounting, all transaction.
Death is of the order of the radically singular – only she who is dead is the subject of death and no one else can occupy that position. No death can commensurate those who died on September 11, 2001 and no deaths can commensurate the over a hundred thousand (and counting) who have died in Afghanistan and Iraq in the decade since 9/11 2001.

Don`t know what is true and what not.
I even doubt on that attack and on this revenge too.
OSAMA & OBAMA
Save Humanity

GOD Please bring Peace into our lives....

Don`t b Rude

I don’t think many people realize this because they think,
as long as the rudeness isn’t directed to me, I don’t have a
problem. I believe that rudeness not only affects the
person they are rude to, but also others. One of the things
I have always tried to make a
safe environment. Noone is allowed to be rude to me or to
anyone. There were no name calling or bullying tolerated at all.

One of the ways to teach this was being respectful.
Greet people with a handshake (which is also an important job skill) and call by names (do remember it carefully).
Everyone actually enjoy this small act of respect that I gave them.

We talked a lot about rudeness and ways that people are rude.
We also talked about how we might not see something one way
but that others would perceive it differently and that we
need to be aware of these perceptions. I notice this when
some people are in a public place and are talking extremely
loudly on their cell phones. This drives me crazy but the
person on the phone never seems to notice other people.

After we do certain acts of rudeness, Don’t stop
there. Instead come up with a replacement
behavior or alternative to the behavior. Just by recognizing
the behavior is not enough. One need to know what else to
do because sometimes rudeness can be a habit. Instead of
making fun of people, practice encouraging them
by applauding after a presentation, or giving them encouraging
words when they are struggling. This behavior
actually improves peer relationships too.

We look at tone of voice and body language too. Sometimes when
we are mad (at others or ourselves) we can be rude to others.
Removing ourselves from a situation or explaining to others how
we are feeling can sometimes help.
Learning self awareness is important. Our actions really do
affect others and can cause negative effects if we are rude.
We need to know what we are doing and why we are doing them in
order to be successful in today’s society.

Zero Oil Food - SAAOL Heart Foundation

I have recently been to seminnar of Dr. Bimal Chajer. He is running SAAOL Heart Foundation all across the country and these camps are sponsored by Emami foundation. 0% oil cooking is taught in the camps.

SAAOL does not only treat heart patients with diet, education, medicines, YOGA, Natural Bypass but also treat the cause of STRESS.


The SAAOL health program is based on 2 main ideologies:

1. Changing self-destructive sedentary lifestyles.

2. Properly setting our daily diets as per balanced nutritional program.

Best thing I got to learn from him is that it is not at all necessary to live without eating your favourite food. Just try Zero Oil Cooking and believe me I tried it and found no difference between in taste.

He just replaced OIL with WATER
and its AMAZING!!
