I am introducing myself as the Yoga
Guru of Sri Madhwa Yoga Academy. I am approaching you with an intention of
organizing a Workshop on the Management Perspectives of Bhagavad Gita to the
students of your department.
All of us are well aware that the ancient text Bhagavad Gita
which Lord Krishna initiated to His disciple Arjuna 5000 years back is the most
revered and read scripture, not only in India but globally. Apart from being a
spiritual text book, it is a valuable book with ethical, psychological, and
management values. For this reason many foreign authors have widely read and
released books on Gita.
The whole human population is
working according to their position either in office or in home as teacher,
medical professional, technician, charted accountant, manager, plumber, CEO,
vice President etc or as a home maker and regardless of their position,
educated or not, all of us generate stress, anxiety or depression due to some
reason or other. This happens because of the attitude towards the work apart
from the knowledge and technique involved. As someone quipped - Altitude
depends on the Attitude, the success of the individual or organization,
happiness obtained through that depends on the mindset of the person. Our
friend Arjuna, though an enlightened soul gets into delusion which Lord Krishna
eradicates through his methodical approach. Since the feeling of the man has
been same for all these aeons, the teaching holds good even now.
What is most relevant in today’s
life is the concept of Karma Yoga or Devotional Work which applies to all the
classes of the society. With correct understanding of Karma Yoga we will surely
eliminate the stress involved in the work place and make this world a better
place to reside.
With this as a background we will
organize a lecture/ seminar on the Management Perspectives of Bhagavad-gita, in
your campus on a day which will be suitable for both of us. If you are
interested, we will work out the details at the earliest.
