Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Each Soul is a Potential God.

A human being has a soul, a spark of the Divine. With this spark, human efforts can achieve even an apparently impossible goal and convert the impossible into reality. God helps those who help themselves.Indian wisdom indicates that human productivity is more important than plant capacity.Hence management helps ordinary people to produce extra ordinary results.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Holism [Oneness]

Man, Nature and Society are interdependent, interconnected, interrelated and form a golden chain – an undivided whole.

Unity of oneness is the truth.

Why do I work? Not for money alone but also for peace, harmony, bliss etc.

Management is called up to follow whole man approach to management and leadership.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Holism [Oneness]

Let the inner being or higher consciousness assume the managerial leadership to manage and lead effectively and efficiently [by combining values & skills] your physical, vital, mental intellectual entities.

Such an integrated human personality of self developed manager and worker can assure best and competent management of any enterprise, involving collective works and efforts.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Equal importance to subjectivity and objectivity.

Indian ethos for management distinguishes subject and object. Subject is subtle and intangible. Object is gross, concrete and visible.We have a concept of the third eye , the eye of wisdom, Jnana Chakshu. It can see even that which the normal two eyes cannot see.

Value based management is essential, to combine subjective and objective phenomena.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Equal importance to subjectivity and objectivity.

These subjective or subtle qualities are as important as money, machines, materials, information or data as well as human skills.Holistic and value oriented management based on Indian Wisdom alone can secure managerial effectiveness and quality of work life and work ethic.

Manager must develop this third eye , the eye of vision, intuition, insight, foresight.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Holistic Nishkarma or desire-less work.

This part of the Geeta provides us the total design of he comprehensive Theory of Work.

The most super ordinate character of work is sacrifice.

Work commitment is the sacrifice for the world maintenance through the family, the organization and the nation and so on without ego.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

♥ Holistic Nishkarma or desire-less work.

When you do your work with steady and equanimous mind offering entire concentration of your consciousness on the work itself, you will possess a total quality mind.

When you plunge yourself, pour yourself, pour your heart and soul into the present field of action with full dynamism, you forget totally yourself due to total engrossment in action. Then your action cannot fail at all.

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Self Development or Ego Management

Karma [Action], Jnana [Knowledge] and Bhakti[Devotion] are three aspects in the total personal or self development.

In due course, three merge into a single attitude of life.

Action without knowledge is bound to disintegrate. Action with knowledge but without devotion leads to careless commercialism or total destruction.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Self Development or Ego Management

Mere knowledge and devotion without action will be barren or fruitless.

Karma Yoga stresses self-less action. It embodies a process of bringing into on line, human action with that of nature as whole. It becomes your Swadharma.

This leads to spontaneity, energy conservation and freedom from mental stress.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Nishkama Karma Yoga is the best route for self development for managers and workers. Self motivation can assure your self development. Aim at Bahu Jana Sukhay. You grow and others also grow.

When everyone does his duty towards others, everyone’s rights are automatically assured. Work is performed without Raga [passion], dwesha [hatred], Garva [arrogance] and Kama [desire]. We have individual development and social good.

This is the answer to the question ‘why work.’

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

“ It is already becoming clear that a chapter that had a Western beginning in business management, will have to have an Indian ending, when the world adopts rich thoughts of Indian ethos and wisdom, if it is not to end in the self destruction of the human race.

Atomic age can be a curse or blessing.”

Arnold Toynbee, Nobel Prize Winner.

Ethico-Morality – Dharma – Holism – Poornatva.

1. Ethico-morality is attunement of the individual self to the SELF of the universe, i.e. the Divine.

2. Ethico-moral life is closest to spiritual life.

3. Unselfishness is the prime moral virtue.

4. Without ethico-moral goodness, intellect does not develop into wisdom and insight.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Ethico-Morality – Dharma – Holism – Poornatva.

5. To a man of right understanding, ethico-moral value or virtue is a Value in itself, superior to any other temporal or secular or temporal other than spiritual value.

6. Vedantic teachers and Lord Krishna in the Geeta also agree that virtues brighten human understanding whereas vices darken it and make asuras [demons] of you.

Cooperation

Healthy competition to excel oneself is a powerful motivator for excellence & success. The cut-throat competition is based on the ‘ The struggle for existence’ and the ‘ survival of the fittest only’ the law of jungle in the animal world.

We want survival of all human beings enjoying harmony, happiness and peace.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Cooperation

Indian ethos says that for human the royal road is Cooperation as a powerful motive for team work. We are human beings having a mind and the power of discrimination.

Cooperation, mutual trust and respect, joint efforts and team spirit can lead to all round prosperity and success for everyone concerned due to synergic effect of the combined effort.

Global Dharmic Management

Indian Ethos for Dharmic Management Chapter 02

Cooperation

In management of any enterprise, Indian insight endorses peaceful coexistence, harmony, not struggle.

Excessive competition at work can destroy many young people and our social life. Cooperation, united efforts and striving for success leads to all round prosperity and success in the field of human enterprise.

9. Indian Thought deals with two types of knowledge. [a] knowledge of creation of world and [b] knowledge of the creator i.e. Divine. This is the subjective knowledge – knowledge of the creator. The SELF cannot be found by the intellect alone. It is the path of the conquered senses, of the conquered mind when in the quiet and tranquility of the mind [when it is empty].

The manager is first a man then a manager.

As man he should first learn to control himself. Without self management and control, how can he control others?
