We are now doing business in a global village. The sourcing of raw material, its manufacturing, selling and distribution are done, irrespective of geographical boundaries, through seamless transaction over the internet. The new style of business and economy is transcending time and space boundaries, and monetary transactions are now faceless and paperless. Needless to mention, we need to equip ourselves with updated technologies and infrastructure to cope with the new environment of doing business under a new ecosystem. Besides this qualitative change in the way of doing business, at present, another challenge is the turmoil caused by the sudden onslaught of the pandemic and the world over, the impact of COVID19 on people’s daily life continues to be terrible. We now have better medical facilities and medicines but poorer health, higher IQ and intellectual brain but poorer common sense and spiritual experience, potent weaponry to eliminate enemy in a war but poor bravery to sustain peace and statesmanship. We have twisted and wound up ourselves too much and are now unable to look at our simple life scenario with straight and simple eyes. Therefore the time has come for us to learn how we should unwind and relax ourselves to enjoy our fruits of labour that we have earned. This Book titled ‘Life Lessons from Gitaji on New Economy’ would be dealing with these issues in the light of Wisdom as explained in Gita by Bhagwan Krishna on human behaviour (Karma) in tandem (Yoga) with the Laws of the Nature. The language and approach may look somewhere out of context but that has been done purposefully to provoke its reader to think out of Box.

Different people and sections of society, suiting to their own relevance and convenience, have interpreted the teachings of The Gita in different ways. Unfortunately, the most quoted teaching of Lord Krishna regarding karma (duty) and its phal (result) has been grossly misunderstood, i.e., “Do your duties without bothering about the result.” Though the message is very clear, still people think – “If the desired result is not in my hands then why should I put any efforts at all?” The result of such misunderstanding has been catastrophic for society. Indians have become a confused lot, unable to decide what to do and when to do, resulting in an inactive, insensitive and directionless society. The masses have become dormant and unmindful of the state of affairs, as if everybody is a philosopher of his mind. We started denouncing materialism, and even few bandits and scoundrels expelled from their own land could come to kill and take over the throne to rule the country and devastate its glorious culture and opulence. The author has been deliberating upon this dilemma to find out the logic and science behind the message of Bhagwan Krishna in The Gita. Everyone will agree that we have a right on action but how come we have no right on the result of the action? The answer to this mysterious co-relationship between efforts and success is given in Gitaji itself.

For professionals grappling with the challenges of corporate life, Leadership Lessons from the Bhagavad Gita offers a transformative path to overcome self-defeating habits and silence the mind's negative chatter-often the greatest barrier to effective leadership. This book advocates for a leadership style rooted in compassion for followers, stakeholders, and future generations, paving the way for harmonious workplace relationships and environmental stewardship. Moving away from conventional leadership models based on control, it promotes leadership by inspiration. At a time when trust in leadership is waning, this book introduces the concept of linked-leadership-leaders who connect through loving connection or bhakti-yoga with themselves (through self-knowledge), others, nature, and the supreme source. Drawing on the example of Krishna guiding Arjuna's chariot, it redefines leadership as a commitment to service, excellence, and virtuous character, inspiring others to follow suit. Its unique insights help you understand different personality types, motivating individuals according to their nature, and building effective teams for a harmonious and prosperous organizational culture. Ultimately, this book challenges leaders to embrace unity and diversity, achieving sustainable well-being and happiness in their organizations.

We all come to this earth with a purpose. Our existence itself is for going through new experiences, making inferences out of them, learning, and moving on. In fact, at every step, we are seekers of knowledge. We have to learn and move on to the next Gigha plane. This goes on in our world's journey of self-completion. The day we realise our purpose for existence on this earth, that very day we become enlightened, or the learned one. The irony is that unlike our yesteryear education, where Gurukul Parampara existed and every learning was associated with a blessing from Guru, education in today's parlance has become commercial and money-oriented. From Guru to Shishya, everyone is seeking education to make money out of it. Lost are the traditions, the value system, and the orientation in education. It is time that educationists and academicians give it a serious thought, and reorient and revamp our education system.

When devotion is expressed from the heart, it kindles the same in the reader. It is the objective of the bookto foster devotional and unconditional love in others. Devotion being her innate nature, the author narrates her passions of love, longing, faith, and reverence for the divine. She brings forth her intense devotion from the core of her being as a natural and effortless flow. Her expressions take us on a boat ride through the pleasure gardens of divine love. Through mysticism, she creates the visions of ecstasy and intoxication, much like the devotional saints of the past. This vortex of intense longing and single pointed devotion culminates in a merger with divine consciousness in bliss of uniting with the beloved, ones own self. It is this divine oneness that expands unconditional love for all.
