Guest guest Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 Sairam Sisters and Brothers, Today we will hear from Ashoke Maitra, Director (Corporate) - Human Resources, Bennett, Coleman & Co., Ltd (Times of India Group), Mumbai, India. --- "In our company, the Times Group, we have already defined its purpose based on a spiritual view. We did this six years ago when we met and examined the purpose of this organisation. The first purpose is to create human excellence in everything that we do. The second purpose is that each human being should grow as much as possible. Happiness is also a purpose that emerged. The most important purpose is to "thrust greatness on our readers." That is, we are a teaching organisation. When you read our products, you should be better informed as a reader, you should feel good. It is our goal to make our readers' lives more meaningful and give some benefit to their life. Different levels of people have different levels of consciousness; therefore we have to straddle across many different audiences. We are using the Kajuraho temple as a model for our newspaper layout. If you go to the Kajuraho temple there are a lot of erotic statutes outside, but once you go inside to the sanctum sanatorium there is no eroticism. So if you want to stay at the erotic level, you can choose to stay outside the temple. If you want to go to the sanctum inside the temple, then you have to give up eroticism and point your eyes toward God. You will notice that even outside, in all of the erotic sculptures the eye is pointing upwards toward God." © Global Dharma Center 2004 www.globaldharma.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
