Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
In common parlance the verse is
interpreted as, ‘Chartered accountants
are always awake and vigilant and
diligent in their duties’.
The Katha Upanishad presents its
philosophy through a curious story of
Nachiket, son of Rishi Vajashravasa
and Yam the god of death.

Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
Nachiket ask profound and metaphysical
questions to Yam and the verse is an
answer given by Yam to Nachiket.
As per the celebrated Vedanta philosophy
there are three states of existence the
Jagrit avasta, supta avasta and shesh or
nidra avasta. These can be identified as
the waking, the dream and the deep sleep
state respectively.
http://heritagebharat.blogspot.in/2014/04/ya-esha-supteshu-jagarti.html
5
Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
This may be explained from the point of view of
Vedanta philosophy as:
 In dream state we experience various types of
emotions during our dreams similar to those
that we experience during our waking state.
 A sense of reality is attached to these dream
objects and unless we wake up from the dream
we continue to be under prejudice. We live the
dream until we realize its reality.
 Vedanta philosophy puts this dream state and
our waking worldly phenomenon on a same
platform.
 Even our own body is constantly changing as
old cells die and are replaced by new, yet we
have the feeling of a continuous existence.
6
Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
 The second line of the Verse states that Brahma
is the ultimate truth, the ultimate reality.
 Mind attaches our ego to these perceptions &
we have the feeling of “I” in relation to the
objects.
 Our mind full of ideas, thoughts, emotions &
perceptions creates an illusion of reality & we
remain ignorant of our true nature.
 In deep meditation the person witnesses the
end of mental processes, end of all thoughts,
time & space halts & there is only the
consciousness of existence that remain, the
Brahma.
Thus, the verse states that Brahma is amrut, i.e.
the immortal, permanent, attribute less Brahma.
7
Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
 The third line of the verse state that, beyond
Brahma there is no other truth.
 Brahma is that energy which can neither be
created not be destroyed.
 Self-realization is the ultimate progress and
knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda's famous said "Arise,
awake, and stop not till the goal is reached"
which is a part of a verse of Katha Upanishad

Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
 The profession we are in and the
profession we are progressing towards,
is of a doctor.. people know that doctors
take care of people’s health, reduce their
pains and suffering, heal the diseased.
But, very few people know that it is
the chartered accountants that take
care of the societal health..! Financial
and moral.

Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
 CA is a profession in the society that
has the onus as well as the capacity to
save this entire economy and keep it
growing..!
A chartered accountant’s role should be
such that he knows that he is not
working just making finacial statements,
but is playing an important role in making
the economic/ ethical structure of the
nation..!

WHAT IS SELF/ I ?
WHAT IS
MANAGEMENT?
IS SELF A PERSONALITY ?
Persona The word is derived from Latin,
where it originally referred to a mask.
once a British asked
swami that
"can't you wear proper
cloths and be like a
Gentleman ?"
 Once a British asked Swami
"can't you wear proper cloths and be
like a Gentleman ?“
 Swami Vivekananda, “In your
country clothes makes a
gentleman, in my country
character does“
 Self is much deeper than personality
or public image.
 Self is the totality of the person and not
merely external looks, but character,
behavioral traits and attitude towards life.
 Self management can be achieved by the
improvement of behavioral traits such as
communication skills, interpersonal
relationships, attitude towards life and
restoring our ethics.

DEFINITION OF CHARACTER
The word “character” comes to us from a Greek verb that means
making a furrow, cutting a groove, or putting a scratch on
something as a mark. In the light of its origin, we may think of
character as that which puts its mark on a human being.
Character is what makes you “what you are” as distinct from
other persons. The individual is little more than a “bundle of
feelings” unless there is some central loyalty within creating
order out of the “chaos of the soul.” Character signifies the
organization of life and behavior around a central loyalty, which
has ethical worth and validity.
INTERPERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS
Interpersonal effectiveness is the capability of an individual
to do this, influence others, competently.
Leadership is a direct function of three elements of
interpersonal effectiveness
 Awareness
 Ability
 Commitment
INTERPERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS
AWARENESS
Awareness is a state of consciousness.
It is the ability to recognize yourself, others, events and
situations in real time.
It is the ability to assess the impact of actions on situations
and others, and be critically self-reflective.
It is a development process that is a function of experience,
communication, self discovery and feedback.
ABILITY
Ability to learn and understand technical issues is
the basis of our careers.
Ability to lead is a function of influence:
 Ability to communicate
 Ability to resolve conflicts
 Ability to solve problems and make decisions
As a member of a team, we influence others in a
collaborative effort to find better ideas or solve
problems.
COMMITMENT
For leaders, the “one thing” that leads to maturity is the fully
aware recognition that one’s decisions make a difference,
both positively and negatively, in the lives of others, and
that any attempt to solve a problem might have a decided
negative impact on some, while helping others.
In no-win scenarios, one must still make a hard decision.
PERSONALITY INDICATORS
 Are you energized around people? Do you like to
meet people and seek opportunities to do so? Do
you think out loud? Do you talk to plants and
discuss problems with animals? This is Extrovert
behavior.
 Alternatively, do you find you would rather work
alone, without interruption. Does meeting too
many people tend to tire you out? Would you
sooner not answer the phone - let the answering
machine do it for you. Would you rather have a
problem written down for you than stated
verbally? This is typical Introvert behavior.
MOTIVATING
MOTIVATING
BUILDING A TEAM
Why would someone want to become part of a
team?
An effective team helps one feel they are:
 Doing something worthwhile for themselves and
the organization
 Enjoying a more satisfying work life
 More in control of their jobs
 Making contributions which are well used
 Learning new skills
 Recognized and respected
BUILDING A TEAM
When a team is operating well the leader and the
members:

them
 Feel ownership for problems rather than blaming
them on others
 Share ideas
 Listen to and show respect for others
 Talk more about “we” and less about “I” and “me”

 Understand and use each others know-how
 Know about each other’s personal lives
 Give each other help and support

    In common parlancethe verse is interpreted as, ‘Chartered accountants are always awake and vigilant and diligent in their duties’. The Katha Upanishad presents its philosophy through a curious story of Nachiket, son of Rishi Vajashravasa and Yam the god of death. http://heritagebharat.blogspot.in/2014/04 /ya-esha-supteshu-jagarti.html 4 Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
  • 5.
    Nachiket ask profoundand metaphysical questions to Yam and the verse is an answer given by Yam to Nachiket. As per the celebrated Vedanta philosophy there are three states of existence the Jagrit avasta, supta avasta and shesh or nidra avasta. These can be identified as the waking, the dream and the deep sleep state respectively. http://heritagebharat.blogspot.in/2014/04/ya-esha-supteshu-jagarti.html 5 Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
  • 6.
    This may beexplained from the point of view of Vedanta philosophy as:  In dream state we experience various types of emotions during our dreams similar to those that we experience during our waking state.  A sense of reality is attached to these dream objects and unless we wake up from the dream we continue to be under prejudice. We live the dream until we realize its reality.  Vedanta philosophy puts this dream state and our waking worldly phenomenon on a same platform.  Even our own body is constantly changing as old cells die and are replaced by new, yet we have the feeling of a continuous existence. 6 Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
  • 7.
     The secondline of the Verse states that Brahma is the ultimate truth, the ultimate reality.  Mind attaches our ego to these perceptions & we have the feeling of “I” in relation to the objects.  Our mind full of ideas, thoughts, emotions & perceptions creates an illusion of reality & we remain ignorant of our true nature.  In deep meditation the person witnesses the end of mental processes, end of all thoughts, time & space halts & there is only the consciousness of existence that remain, the Brahma. Thus, the verse states that Brahma is amrut, i.e. the immortal, permanent, attribute less Brahma. 7 Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
  • 8.
     The thirdline of the verse state that, beyond Brahma there is no other truth.  Brahma is that energy which can neither be created not be destroyed.  Self-realization is the ultimate progress and knowledge. Swami Vivekananda's famous said "Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached" which is a part of a verse of Katha Upanishad 8 Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai

    94 DEFINITION OF CHARACTER Theword “character” comes to us from a Greek verb that means making a furrow, cutting a groove, or putting a scratch on something as a mark. In the light of its origin, we may think of character as that which puts its mark on a human being. Character is what makes you “what you are” as distinct from other persons. The individual is little more than a “bundle of feelings” unless there is some central loyalty within creating order out of the “chaos of the soul.” Character signifies the organization of life and behavior around a central loyalty, which has ethical worth and validity.

    INTERPERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS Interpersonal effectivenessis the capability of an individual to do this, influence others, competently. Leadership is a direct function of three elements of interpersonal effectiveness  Awareness  Ability  Commitment
  • 96.
  • 97.
    AWARENESS Awareness is astate of consciousness. It is the ability to recognize yourself, others, events and situations in real time. It is the ability to assess the impact of actions on situations and others, and be critically self-reflective. It is a development process that is a function of experience, communication, self discovery and feedback.
  • 98.
    ABILITY Ability to learnand understand technical issues is the basis of our careers. Ability to lead is a function of influence:  Ability to communicate  Ability to resolve conflicts  Ability to solve problems and make decisions As a member of a team, we influence others in a collaborative effort to find better ideas or solve problems.
  • 99.
    COMMITMENT For leaders, the“one thing” that leads to maturity is the fully aware recognition that one’s decisions make a difference, both positively and negatively, in the lives of others, and that any attempt to solve a problem might have a decided negative impact on some, while helping others. In no-win scenarios, one must still make a hard decision.

    PERSONALITY INDICATORS  Areyou energized around people? Do you like to meet people and seek opportunities to do so? Do you think out loud? Do you talk to plants and discuss problems with animals? This is Extrovert behavior.  Alternatively, do you find you would rather work alone, without interruption. Does meeting too many people tend to tire you out? Would you sooner not answer the phone - let the answering machine do it for you. Would you rather have a problem written down for you than stated verbally? This is typical Introvert behavior.
