Practitioners of Vedic management are not super humans, but those who have
understood the fallout of these shortcomings and take conclusive steps to
overcome them. Vedic management offers practical wisdom to create a better
world one person at a time. Prevailing management subjects pertain to
processes and not principles. They teach how to handle marketing, human
resources, finances etc. from the stand point of a process. Accountability rather
than individual responsibility is advocated. They do not delve into failure or
the context in which said processes will be successful. Management principles
as per the Vedas, offer a deeper understanding of the system from the
standpoint of human capital, it endeavours to impart the thought process by
which practitioners can themselves create systems and processes as the
situation requires. Instead of general or standard procedures, customized
solutions can become the norm. Consequently, resources are optimally used,
sustainable profitability is the norm and society benefits from the all rounded
development of its members due to individual responsibility and rational
thinking.

Vedic management is an art that emanates from understanding the true nature
of oneself, mind and body to identify ones purpose and consequently
contribute to society and the world. Without understanding oneself there can
neither be self-development nor organizational success. While, present day
self-help pertains to positive thinking, developing better habits and realizing
untapped potential, it lacks a conclusive method or plan. The efficacy or
effectiveness of modern day self-help is questionable, while some deal with the
mind, others focus on the body or emotions. Rarely is the individual Self
addressed. Vedic Management on the other hand, offers a definite guide to
understanding one's psyche, habit patterns (mental and physical) and
overcoming negative tendencies in a positive and conducive way. It is time
tested and customized to individual needs, which neglects neither the mind
nor the body or the emotions.

thinking required to understand the efficient and effective use of processes
depending on context and human potential.
Vedic managers will be those who can continue in their existing professions in
a more effective way to create a better life for themselves and those around
them in terms of health, wealth and prosperity. Vedic managers create better
processes, environments and even people to build a better standard of living
for everyone. Personal responsibility, generosity, individuality and
independent thinking are key attributes of Vedic managers. Due to the
emphasis on critical reasoning, Vedic managers are better prepared to foresee
the consequences of their decision on self, company, society and the
world. They advocate global welfare through self-welfare not global welfare
through self-destruction or self-welfare through global destruction.
Vedic managers will be those who will be bereft of Arishadvargas they will not
suffer from lust, anger, greed, infatuation, ego or enmity. A person without
these limitations will be a friend to all; they will do everything in their purview
to help everyone, with the aim of creating a better world. Conventionally
trained managers are seldom interested in creating a better world through self-
efforts. Corporations create CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) initiatives
when social wellbeing became a parameter for perceived success. CSR, in most
cases, is a form of Public Relations. Such practices project the idea of success at
any cost and seldom value people as customers or employees.
Vedic managers understand that such exercises are eventually are seen to be a
sham by customers and any organization indulging in such practices finally
garners only losses. Vedic managers understand the importance of
relationships, necessity of self-realization, accountability and value all
resources (human and otherwise). In a world, which is currently calling out for
equality and social justice, Vedic managers are a perfect fit. The intuitive values

of truth and welfare for all guides the actions of Vedic managers; as they believe
that only good begets good.
Most Yoga teachers rarely if ever teach the entire 8 limbs of Yoga; if they do,
aspects of diet and nutrition that Ayurveda values are not taught. Ayurveda on
the other hand does not always impart knowledge of Yoga. Vedic astrology, in
almost all cases has become a fatalistic view on life, that is unchanging and
cruel. Vedic wisdom that was evident in all aspects of life and in Yoga,
Ayurveda etc. is not taught. Guru has become a clich used in all respects,
without the true meaning of word being understood. While, it is possible for
an individual to seek all the above stated professionals, it will be difficult in
several ways, not least financially. Neither will it guarantee success in
overcoming weaknesses or breaking limiting beliefs. I

manager will be able to demonstrate his ability in any situation. Consequently,
he will be valued in any organization seeking to create a sustainable and
profitable future.
Recognition is a result of efforts. Vedic manager will know how the dynamics
of Karma (efforts) work in terms of recognition. By being self-assured, (s)hell
work in-line with Dharmic (and universal) principles of creating health, wealth
and prosperity, for all including himself. The values of truth, accountability and
camaraderie with fellow workers will yield the rightful recognition without
compromising on ethics. Prosperity for the Vedic manager is external success
and inner peace.
Vedic management will take a while to get the necessary impetus. But since it
is an intuitive way of creating welfare for all, it is sure to succeed; especially in
the present environment which clamours for social justice and welfare. It will
steadily gain momentum and eventually be accepted as the only true and viable
approach to managing self, family, organizations, to create a happy,
prosperous and sustainable societies.

innovative. Everyone knows that but since there are no alternatives to
management proven alternatives they are maintaining the facade and
continuing as is.

sustainable organizations by presenting the said organizations as prototypes.

things steadily. After that they will need to provide a dissertation along with a

18. What affiliations does the VMC have with religious bodies or
cultural institutions? It is an institute geared to promoting
religious values?
VMC is not a religious or cultural organization, and hence does not affiliate to
them. While, the philosophy is inspired from ancient Vedic (often known as
Hindu) texts, the goal of the centre is to promote critical thinking, rational
decision making, knowledge of self, mind & body and methods by which
external success and inner peace can be attained by all. At VMC, we do not
promote religious dogma or discriminatory practises of any nature; all courses
are geared towards practical application of knowledge in keeping with the
modern times.
