Mostly Motivational: I have read somewhere the Dalai Lama saying: "Go out of circulation, once in six months!" What he means is to travel out of your city/town/home to break the routine life and connect with Nature. Else the mind in its natural course will set a 'concrete context for life', particularly if you are living in a concrete jungle! If Corona has constrained your travel, alternatively why not pick up a book that expands your worldview to take stock of your life story? Here's a short review of the wise book, "Most and More" from Mahatria Ra, the well-known modern sage. It's a packed-power-punch. Gulp it to strengthen the soul. If a senior trainer and Guru of Gurus in Indianoil like Shri K M Krishnakumar, former Chief HRD Manager, Indianoil-SRO, blesses you with a book-gift, it is only your duty to cherish reading it. And I did. Though I have seen the witty video wisdom of Mahatria Ra, in the WhatsApp world and mostly (rather, more not less,...
'Experience' is God: Corona is God. Ask me why? Not even Religions and Masters could make us self-aware suddenly as we are today. If remaining conscious ever is the ultimate panacea for humanity’s ills, this little virus has given it to us on a platter. Whether cloistered or quarantined, if you want a visual tour of the mighty Himalayas, here’s a book by Swami Rama, “Living with the Himalayan Masters”, packed with wisdom, adventure and experiential learning encounters. In these times of travail, a dose of Indian Spirituality is apt. Take a dip in to the ice waters of the Ganges.

Like the monkeys which dreaded jumping from their safe trees into the Savanna risking lives, we now look left and right to ensure that the time is right to venture out of our homes.

Paul Polak, author of Out of Poverty , wrote: "90 percent of the world’s products and services are designed for 10 percent of the world’s population-to meet the desires, rather than actual needs, of the richest people on earth." How true! On the contrary, Jugaad is what brings in simple and creative solutions to real problems faced by the masses. Here's an interesting book, Jugaad Innovation" born out of Indian ingenuity, with international examples, on how to unleash our innovative spirits while designing products and services. As the sub-title goes, it's a Frugal and Flexible Approach to Innovation for the 21st Century". Creative Spirits Unleashed: The company you keep, keeps you motivated. I fondly recall my discussions on this book in my hand with our young and intelligent HR Professional friend, Pradeep Unnikrishnan, a few years back. It has taken some time to read. But it’s worth it. Again, another book by an author-trio after the Toyota Lean Produc...
