We must never forget ancient wisdom that says, “As you sow so shall you reap” (Galatians 6:7).

10 Good Reasons Why You Should MeditateOH TEIK BIN
Meditation provides many benefits such as reducing stress, improving concentration, and developing compassion. It allows you to observe your thoughts and actions with more awareness. While the modern world causes high levels of anxiety, meditation gives the mind a break from constant thinking. It teaches us to be present rather than multi-tasking. The Buddhist teachings explain that our personality consists mainly of mental aspects like feelings, perceptions, and consciousness. Therefore, we must care for our mental health as much as our physical health by practicing meditation to train the mind in wholesome qualities and reduce unwholesome tendencies like greed, hatred, and delusion.
The document discusses personality development and defines personality as one's character and nature as shown through their behavior, feelings, and thoughts.

The document uses Arjuna aligning with Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita as the perfect example of acting without attachment to results.
Management begins with developing the human factor. Traditional Indian thought views management as a spiritual discipline aimed at harmonizing and integrating all aspects of an organization for the benefit of all. The Western approach tends to overemphasize self-assertion and profit motives at the cost of human values. True management requires developing the inner consciousness of both managers and workers through practices like karma yoga, meditation, and cultivating virtues. The ultimate aim is to spiritualize organizations and society as a whole by creating more integrated and enlightened individuals.

A predominant balance of these gunas can influence one's behaviors and health. Ayurveda views the mind and mental health as integral to overall wellness.
Dr. A.N. Das presented on health, the mind, soul, and spirituality. He defined health as a balanced state of mind, body and soul. The mind is responsible for thoughts, emotions, and attitudes. The soul is the spiritual part that some believe continues after death. Spirituality relates to religious beliefs and connecting with something beyond material things.

When semen is preserved, it gets reabsorbed by the body and stored in the brain as Ojas Shakti or Spiritual Power. The vital force is closely linked with the nervous system. Hence, it is vitally necessary to preserve it carefully if one desires to have strong nerves. Girls, too, suffer great loss through having unchaste thoughts and giving way to lust. Vital nervous energy is lost. There is a corresponding loss of Veerya (vital fluid) in them as well.

The document summarizes Ambedkar's critique of Marxism by comparing the philosophies of Buddha and Karl Marx. It notes that Buddha established communism within the Sangh (monastic order) without dictatorship, through changing people's minds and dispositions via teachings, rather than force. In contrast, the means of Communism emphasized by Marx were violence and dictatorship of the proletariat. While Communism aims for equality, it risks sacrificing fraternity and liberty, which are also needed. Ambedkar argues Buddha's approach of changing minds voluntarily may be better able to achieve equality along with fraternity and liberty.

Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.

4. 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.

/ya-esha-supteshu-jagarti.html 4
Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
5. 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
6. 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.

Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
7. 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.

Dr.VaradrajBapat,IITMumbai
8. 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.

13. 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 ?"
14. 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.
15. 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.
95. 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
97. 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.
98. 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.
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.
100. 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.
103. 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
104. BUILDING A TEAM
When a team is operating well the leader and the
members:
Are clear on team goals and are committed to
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”
105. BUILDING A TEAM
Understand and use each others know-how
Know about each other’s personal lives
Give each other help and support
Show appreciation for help received
Recognize and deal with differences and
disagreements
Encourage development of other team members
Are loyal to the group, its members, the leader
and the organization
106. BUILDING A TEAM
Make decisions based on facts not on emotion or
personalities
Play a variety of roles – serve as leader, teacher or coach
