MANAGEMENT MANTRAS... SRI SRI
Chapter 1
Introduction
I know the mantra for meditation. What is a management mantra?
Management begins in the mind. When the mind manages itself better, it can manage anything. Human life is a combination of the concrete and the abstract. Our body is concrete and our mind is abstract. Both positive and negative thoughts emanate from the same brain. We know very little about ourselves. Being better aware of our own mind helps us to understand life better. Human life is structured just like an atom. At the centre of the atom is the proton and a field of negative charges orbits it. Similarly, we too have virtues at the centre of our being. But if we have not realised these virtues, we roam the outer orbits .So we need to take it for granted that we already have these virtues within us. Always remember you are a citizen of the world, the whole world belongs to you. There is some virtue to be learnt from every part of the world teamwork fromjapan, precision from Germany, marketing and negotiation skills from the United States, courtesy, decency and refinement from the British, and human values from the villages of India.
You will find good qualities everywhere in the world. You too possess these qualities. They only need nourishment. If you are committed to doing something to uplift life around you, if you are committed to compassion, to creativity, then the world will be a wonderful place. More often than not, we are stuck in our own mindsets. If we could put ourselves in others’ shoes, we would be able to see their point of view. We need to keep changing and attempting different roles. In any organisation, top management should be setting goals to define what is to be achieved. Middle management should deal with how and when the goals need to be fulfilled. Lower management should concern itself with the execution of the means to achieve the goals and ensure the quality of the output. People at the top of the hierarchy need to be expansion-conscious while those at the bottom need to be qualityconscious. But all these levels should work together in harmony. This is the sign of a healthy institution. An important part of management is creativity. All CEOs and Chairmen want to improve their enterprise, but they sideline research and development the most creative part of the enterprise. They assume that this is to be done outside the orbit of their enterprise. Creativity can only come from silence. If we maintain two minutes of silence every day, then we will see that a whole new dimension of life opens up.

words... sri sri
Words..
"Sometimes some words unwillingly come out of your mouth or sometimes others may say something though they may not mean it. No mother means it when she tells her child to get lost. But sometimes she says, ‘get lost! Don’t disturb me.’
Don’t hang on to the words of people. See beyond the words. I don’t care what people say or talk. This is all entertainment. So these things must be taken lightly.
Time is so precious and life is so much more precious. So we should keep doing good work.
Either you work or you meditate. You work and put your 100% and then sit and meditate.
Don’t take anybody’s words so deep into your heart, except mine. Words of knowledge you should take deep in your heart but not the comments of other people."
Keep smiling!
Keep your heart clean.

Q:- Gurudev, during difficult times we feel why me? Where is Gurudev?Inspite of His presence in my life why is there so much suffering? Please explain?
Sri Sri :
Life is just like a ride, which has extreme ups and downs but always remember that there is some supreme power with you, which will not let you fall, hold you properly and will make you land safely. You are absolutely safe in His custody. He is carrying you along safely. He may make you feel that you will fall, but He will never ever let that happen. So breathe in and feel His presence. Breathe out and be grateful.
How Ego kills Relationships...Sri Sri
How ego kills the relationships
Ego causes heaviness, discomfort, fear, anxiety. Ego does not let love flow. Ego is separateness, non-belongingness, wanting to prove and to possess. Ego can be transcended by knowing the truth, by inquiring “Who am I?”
Often, you feel contempt or jealousy towards someone with ego. Instead you should have compassion.
There is also a positive aspect of ego. Ego drives you to do work. A person will do a job either out of joy, compassion or out of ego. Most of the work in society is done out of ego.
But in satsang, work is done out of love. Ego is separateness, non- belongingness. It desires to prove and to possess. When you wake up and see that there is nothing to be proven and nothing to possess, ego dissolves.
