Success in Daily Life through Bhagavad Gita by Mr. Vivek Bindra



Introduction to Management
Principles from Bhagavad Gita

Bhagavad Gita was the first
ever motivational seminar spoken 5200 years ago in the battlefield of
Kurukshetra. The book is a series of FAQs between Arjuna and Krishna where Arjuna
is asking questions and Krishna is answering. 


Stephen Covey, author of the best seller 7 habits of highly effective people, has admitted that he has
conceived all the habits from Bhagavad Gita.

In the first chapter of Bhagavad Gita, Krishna is listening intensely while Arjuna is expressing his stress, challenges & emotions in the battlefield. Like him, today everybody has their own battle within self. People in corporate have their own battles to fight. How to bounce back in tough situations is the key message in the book. It enables people to transform from circumstantial manager to substantial manager. The book covers everything about management & leadership to achieve excellence. The principle applied is “seek to understand first and then to be understood”. It helps one to understand the nature of circumstances and build the ability to bounce back with a positive attitude. So, essentially Bhagavad Gita covers all kinds of required leadership wisdom which helps people to handle tough times in today’s competitive world of stressful situations.
Research says that more than 80% employees in any organization are disengaged; more than 90% employees are passengers, and only 10% are drivers, and the result is continuous dissatisfaction, extreme stress, no work life balance, lack of effectiveness and decline in efficiency. For all of these and many more problems, Krishna has given timeless principles in Bhagavad Gita. These principles can be applied at any time, place and situation; they were spoken 5200 years ago but they are absolutely valid and has the same effect applied in the today’s modern corporate scenario.

Karma Theory
“Karam kare jaao, phal ki iccha mat karo” is a misapplied shloka. It is misinterpreted as working for a company but not getting promoted. Thomas Edison failed 10,000 times but he never thought of failure. He had the bounce back ability and he did not worry about his failures. This is what Krishna teaches us in Bhagavad Gita. One should know the difference between two kinds of efforts - efforts with worry and efforts without worry. When we worry, the quality of the efforts goes down and it impacts the results. Also Krishna explains difference between expectation and gratitude, Expectations are directly proportional to frustration but Gratitude is inversely proportional to frustration – the more you have gratitude, the less you have frustration.
So friends you can also type VIVEK BINDRA on YouTube to check his channel and hear him live on Bhagavad Gita.

Bhagavad Gita also helps in creating a direction by setting goals because clearly defined goals are bound to give the desired results. In the beginning, Arjuna is direction-less and Krishna acts as a mentor & coach to give him directions. Krishna establishes the importance of being focused and how one can incorporate these learnings in life. Bhagavad Gita elaborates the importance and techniques of controlling mind to produce desired results. It teaches everyone to regulate multiple desires and focus in one direction that is, THE GOAL and get the wished output.

Bhagavad Gita is a book that can transform our lives. When we want to change our habits we often do things we know we should stop doing. Krishna gives a series of Shlokas as answers to this. One of which says ‘You have 5 senses. Regulate them. Check at the entry gates to allow anything that is unwanted to get in. Otherwise, the negativity around will uproot all your knowledge and wisdom, and you will do things even if you do not want them to do.

Do you know that you are an average of 5 people you keep yourself in your life around?


When you regulate your associations, you can influence your future by automatically displaying good actions. When there is garbage in, there will be garbage out. Good in – good out. Negativity in- negativity out. Positive in-positive out. So create good associations and you will have good character and your destiny will automatically shine.

After the unfortunate 9/11 incident, the Americans lost faith in people coming from South Asia. Because of which now, one has to reach the airport 3 hours before the departure. A lot of money, time and effort are wasted because of the loss of faith and trust. This is called the law of increasing returns and is explained in Bhagavad Gita. When the value and trust is low, the cost of business goes up; when the value and trust is high, the cost of doing business goes down.

 “When you give more than what you get soon you
get more than what you gave”

                                                                                                                                    -Vivek Bindra

Power of Thoughts
It is said that all the things you see on this Earth were in somebody’s mind at first. The principle is that all things are created twice, once in the mind and then in real. So, it is imperative to watch your thoughts and creatively &consciously chose your thoughts. If you really want to change your life, start by changing your thoughts.
In Chapter 8, Verse 6 of Bhagavad Gita, Krishna tells Arjuna, “You become what you think.” If you want to control your destiny, start by controlling your thoughts.

Success is not by
chance but by choice.
You can choose your success
by choosing your thoughts
