Maruti Suzuki introducing pilot sessions on spirituality and mind enlightenment by the Brahmakumaris

NEW DELHI: Around 25 engineers at Maruti Suzuki's production planning and control division in Gurgaon recently came up against a pleasant surprise: their erstwhile boss, Atul Jain, had taken on a new avatar. He had morphed from a fiery boss to a colleague who seemed more malleable.

Earlier, Jain could not tolerate a single glitch in processes handled by his team and this led to frequent unpleasant situations. As a result, many of his subordinates hesitated to acknowledge their gaffes. Now, the picture has changed and Jain's team finds itself more in harmony than ever before. The transformation was the result of Maruti Suzuki introducing pilot sessions on spirituality and 'mind enlightenment' by the Brahmakumaris.

"After attending these in-house sessions, my efficiency as well as that of my department, has risen. The ownership in my team members has also improved. They no longer hesitate in disclosing their mistakes," says Jain.

Encouraged by the response, the company, which has been struggling to handle workplace conflicts, has introduced sessions on spirituality by the Brahmakumaris for all its 18,000 employees. Celebrity Brahmakumari Shivani will conduct the sessions on spiritual well-being. Her first session, webcast this week, reached out to all the employees.

"The sessions will help our employees keep stress levels in control and avoid conflicts at work. We will also customise training for the overall spiritual well being of our employees," says a Maruti Suzuki spokesperson. The sessions will help the Maruti employees keep emotions in place, says Brahma Kumari Shivani.

"We should not blame others for our anger; it is totally in our hands to control it," she says. Shivani has held similar sessions at companies like Larsen & Toubro, Indian Oil Corporation, Singapore Airlines, Godrej Industries, Sony Entertainment Television, GE Energy and Apollo Hospital.

Maruti is also working on other initiatives targeting employee engagement. For one, it boasts of a common canteen and uniform across hierarchies. "At Maruti Suzuki, we believe that having food together encourages bonding. Our Gurgaon plant has two vegetarian canteens that can seat about 2,400 persons. We also have a separate Japanese food counter for expats," says SY Siddiqui, chief mentor, Maruti Suzuki.

The company also organises a programme where families of the shop floor visit the factory on every second and fourth Saturday to interact with the Maruti team. "They bond over lunch, games etc. It's a full fun-day activity," he says.

About 45 per cent of Maruti employees are in the age bracket of 25 to 30 years but the broad HR policies and strategy are the same for them. "We believe that a younger workforce requires higher levels of engagement. With that in mind, our focus is to strengthen the on-boarding process-comprehensive induction training, challenging assignments, creating job excitement and mentoring," he says.

Now, for the first time, she has given her full, personal and excoriating account and shared a treasure trove of previously unseen pictures from her years inside the notoriously secretive organization.

ReAct stages Neil LaButes mordant The Break of Noon

Originally published September 9, 2014 at 2:00 PM | Page modified September 9, 2014 at 2:44 PM

In The Break of Noon, a man becomes determined to spread spiritual enlightenment after surviving a mass shooting, and in a mordant series of episodes, we bear witness to unabashed solipsism, casual cruelty and a host of fractured relationships. In other words, its a Neil LaBute play, even if his poison pen doesnt sting with the precision seen in stronger works like his 1997 film, In the Company of Men.

ReAct Theatre presents the local premiere of the play in a sparse, uneven production that sometimes struggles with the brusque rhythms of LaButes dialogue. It doesnt help matters that some of his self-contained scenes are widely inferior to others, though director David Hsieh gives them all a chance to work with his measured pacing.

William Poole stars as John Smith, the lone survivor of an office massacre perpetrated by a disgruntled former employee, and he believes his survival means hes been chosen as a messenger of God. Problem is, John doesnt seem to have a very strong grasp on what the message is, and in a series of scenes with his ex, a prostitute and others, it becomes clear hes not quite the born-again man he thinks he is.

LaButes broadsides against American greed and mass-media vapidity are thudding and obvious, though actors Malcolm J. West and Corinne Magin are sharp as a money-grubbing lawyer and a faux-sincere TV host. Scenes with relatives and loved ones are a little more convincing, especially the spat that bubbles up when John tries to reconcile with his ex-wife (an incredulous Jennifer Crooks).

As the typical LaBute egotistical male, Poole excels at portraying an enthusiastic evangelist of his own self-importance literally, in the plays closing monologue but hes missing the mean streak that would complete the package. The Break of Noon has its moments, but its far from the complete package itself.

Why You Should Be Practicing Buddhism Business

This article is by Chokdee Rutirasiri, the founder of Story & Structure, a design firm.

At the heart of Buddhist traditions and teachings lies the Eightfold Path. It has eight elements: Right View, Right Intention, Right Action, Right Speech, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, and Right Concentration. I consider it to be a nonlinear guide to areas of exploration and practice that can lead to a greater understanding of the world around you. By nonlinear, I mean that you dont have to master one of the elements before taking on another. For instance, Right Mindfulness and Right Intention go into all parts of the path; they intertwine and intersect to create a clearer picture of reality and how to flourish within it.

These teachings have guided menot onlyin my spiritual life, but in my professional life as well, as a Buddhist in the business world.I have applied three of the eight tenets to my dealings with customers and employees and the management of my human-centered design firm. These three are Right Intention, Right Action, and Right Mindfulness. I believe they can help all of us face the challenges and choices we encounter in the corporate world. Understood and used correctly, they provide valuable tools to help us navigate the path to business enlightenment.

Right Intention:When I first explain to people what my company does, they always ask, what exactly is human-centered design? I answer that we listen to peoples business problems and then try to come up with solutions that they can easily and intuitively implement, but also, we incorporate the Right Intention teaching in our core company values, and it is reflected in the solutions we develop. For example, if I look inside myself and see that greed is a factor in a solution we are developing, I eliminate it immediately. Greed only leads to suffering, and suffering is something that Buddhists vehemently reject. I always focus on ensuring that my intentions in business are pure and centered on helping my clients achieve only the best for their business, because in the end that is the best for both of us.

Right Action:After intentions come actions. You must evaluate how your actions help or harm. The more wholesome your intentions are, the more sincere your actions will be. I always aim my work at being skillful, helpful, and best directed to improving the clients return on investment. A clients suffering is my suffering, so I make sure to prevent it as much as possible. To practice improving your actions, you need to develop an awareness of ethics and then use good judgment to ensure that your actions will not bring harm or suffering to your client (and your business).

Right Mindfulness:Mindfulness is easily summarized as paying attention. That sounds easy enough, but in todays fast-paced, meetings-scheduled-months-in-advance world, staying present in the moment is very hard. In business, you need to focus on whats happening now, not the future. Granted, you need to invest thought in foreseeable problems, upcoming major presentations, and the like, but that should not prevent you from taking time to really go over what you can accomplish today. Now. Tomorrow will come, but you will never get yesterday back. Make sure you use every moment to its fullest and invest your time wisely.

Focusing on these three tenets of the Eightfold Path will not only surprise but delight you. Im not advocating converting to Buddhism, but I do suggest you convert to practicing Buddhism in business, as it will lead to greater rewards both spiritual and financial.

Music Interview: Reno's The Bonfire Set Puts the Contemporary in Contemporary Folk Rock

Who, you my ask, is The Bonfire Set?

The short answer is that The Bonfire Set is a young, seven-member Reno, Nevada-based congregation with a new debut EP, On the Road, that resonates with familiar contemporary folk rock tones and flavors. But they're something distinctive as well, especially as they represent a generation you wouldn't expect to be saying the things they do.

For one example, the title song is an obvious homage to Jack Kerouac, blending vocal harmonies with '60s vibes. Speaking of the '60s, Jamil Apostol, vocalist and acoustic guitarist for the group, says the song "Nuclear Love" is "a love song/anti-war song with two lovers 'holding hands in the ashes . swimming in the depths of liquid napalm.'" Likewise, "Red Roses" is a song about a breakup as a result of war. Sound a bit like what they used to call protest music back in the day?

Lyrically, there's a lot of social commentary in the seven songs of On the Road. In fact, On the Road is one of those collections with an upbeat, often poppy sound that almost masks the philosophical musings of the words. For Apostol, the EP is unified by recurring themes in "a story line of a character trying to make it in this world, despite being bombarded by attachment to war, relationships. etc." This character ponders much on the meaning of mortality as in the optimistic opening track, "Few Years," which notes we will all turn to dust, be bogged down in the 9-to-5 world, but all turns out fine in the end. Likewise, "Mammoth" is "about making good memories while on the path to enlightenment - 'As we drove toward the Light.'" Or "City Lights," which is "about remaining eternal through old memories." In short, this isn't a set of simple observational or confessional stories but is rather very accessible music with a spiritual bent.

To dig into what The Bonfire Set is all about, I decided to ask Apostol to describe just who the band is, what inspires it, and what it is trying to do. Here's what he had to say.

How did The Bonfire Set come together?

We've been childhood friends for the most part. It wasn't until a trip to Coachella 2013 that we wanted to form a band. It was such an enlightening experience that we decided that that could be us headlining the main stage one day if we worked hard enough. Ryan had never even touched a bass until the band formed! We've been a band for about 16 months now.

Who are the members?

Beyond myself, our current roster includes Kirsten Crom (keys/vocals), Nathan DePaoli (drums), Casey Frasca (electric guitar/vocals), Denise Julian (vocals/percussion), Ryan Widmer (bass), and Patrick Zbella (electric guitar).

With that many personalities, I suspect everyone has their own sources of inspiration with a variety of tastes.

A spiritual reawakening at the center of 'Kabbalah Me'

"The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know," says producer-director Steven E. Bram of the ancient mystical philosophy at the center of his documentary "Kabbalah Me."

Unfortunately, viewers may feel the same and not in an inspiring way after watching this elusive film, which tracks the filmmaker's spiritual reawakening following a kind of midlife crisis of faith.

After an entire journey, in which sports documentarian Bram tours Orthodox Jewish communities in Manhattan and Brooklyn and later Israel to unravel the mysteries of kabbalah and to find his own personal place amid it all we're left with little concrete understanding of this esoteric, Judaic-rooted discipline. That such celebrities as Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow have embraced it remains more of a topical touchstone than most anything else presented here.

Bram, who also narrates (and writes, with co-director Judah Lazarus and Adam Zucker), may be earnest in his desire for enlightenment. But his approach feels overly self-serving; too much "Me," not enough "Kabbalah." Perhaps the filmmaker should have spent more time behind the camera instead of front and center, as he observes a host of Jewish rituals and traditions and chats with rabbis, congregants, scholars and devout members of his extended family.

Bram also could have asked tougher, more specific questions of the featured kabbalists. Most of their responses or attempted explanations about the subject may prove far too airy-fairy or amorphous to satisfy the skeptical or empirically inclined.

As for Bram's patient wife, Miriam, who supports her husband's new religious fervency but resists jumping into the proverbial mikvah (Jewish ritual bath) herself, her story seems incomplete.

"Kabbalah Me."

No MPAA rating.

Running time: 1 hour, 20 minutes.

Throughout history, chanting mantras has been one of the most powerful spiritual and energetic practices since humans have been on the planet. Chanting involves repeating special sacred vibratory sounds, mantras or songs for healing, rejuvenation, and purification of ones life. In a recent Daily Mail article (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-563533/Gregorian-chanting-reduce-blood-pressure-stress.html), a senior lecturer in neuroscience was quoted saying that the musical structure of chanting can have a significant and positive physiological impact and that chanting has been shown to lower blood pressure, increase levels of the performance hormone DHEA as well as reduce anxiety and depression.

Chanting mantras have served millions of people for centuries and have been used in the African, Hawaiian, Native American cultures, as well as the Roman Catholic (Gregorian, psalms), Jewish (Cantillation), Muslim (Quran reading), Buddhist and Hindu religions for spiritual and healing arts, and ways in which people connect with God or the Divine. Today, billions of people recognize the benefits of chanting on the level of soul, heart, mind, and body.

Comment on Rethinking the Malaysian community by ENDANGERED HORNBILL

Prof Dr. Mohamad Tajuddin Mohamad Rasdi The Malaysian Insider 30 August 2014

When I was invited by my colleagues to deliver a talk to a group of final year architecture students at UiTM on the subject of Community Center for Malaysia, I ended up talking about what being a Malaysian community means to me. From the reaction of the 80 strong students, no one had ever given a talk closest to the one I delivered ever since they set foot at UiTM. The following is an extraction of my power point presentation set in an essay format. I want to share these thoughts with all Malaysians, particularly with my Malay and Muslim friends, relatives and colleagues. I am sorry to say that I have the perception that of all the races in Malaysia, the Malays seem to be the least in understanding what being a Malaysian is all about.

I want to say that I can understand if a Malay says that they want to be Muslim first because God is greater than country but that does not give a blank check in being ill mannered and obnoxious and downright threatening to other religious adherents in order to get a certain point across. It also does not mean keeping in a lock-up two young teenagers just for wishing Muslims the breaking of fast by eating Bak-kut-teh. It also does not give any right for Muslims to threaten to slap an elected female representative or threaten to burn the holy books of the Christians. Malays and Muslims may disagree with me and even despise me but from where I am standing the loudest and most common bigots and racists in this country arethe Malays, especially from Perkasa and Isma.

The fact that these NGOs seem to get away with their unruly conduct is gravely disturbing indeed. But, on the ground, the fact that many teachers, head teachers, university students, professors, lecturers, taxi drivers and the many Mak Ciks and Pak Ciks, hang on their every word is the most frightening scenario for the well-being of the people of this nation. In my book, after 57 years of singing the Negara ku and filling televisions and youtubes with a feel good merdeka commercial, our grade is an F for failing to live up to the visions of our founding fathers like Tunku Abdul Rahman and Onn Jaafar. Plainly speaking, we are a divided nationby ignoranceand worseby choice.

Thus, it is with this sad and somber introduction that I offer my thoughts on how we should rebuild this country. I do not much care about the concerns of political parties on both sides of the divide because, again from where I am sitting, the two coalitions are simply fighting over who would own Malaysia and its wealth. Neither one is actually seriously putting across a viable concept and process of how to turn around this country on the path of moralistic, spiritual and cultural prosperity. Many Malaysians do not care two hoots about these three agendas for all their concerns is simply on a big house, a big car and a nice overseas holiday with a comfortable medical insurance expense as well as a good children education fund. But because of this ignorance, all that Malaysians covet will be meaningless and ultimately loss in a raging fire of hatred, mistrusts and civil unrest. The sparks have already began to flicker into life and is simply awaiting a small can of fuel to start the raging inferno of ethnic cleansing. Too dramatic a portrayal? I think not.

Henceforth, let us all ponder on the following words that I had put together in my definition of a Malaysian community:

A Malaysian Community is a Community that comprises of people from different ethnic groups who reveres deeply their religious and individual cultural heritage and respects reverently other ethnic groups with their own religious and cultural inheritance in a spirit of democratic and civil harmony while believing fervently that their very differences are their strength and that these differences complete their social and spiritual assets. In short, One Malaysia is truly a Many Malaysia.

There are two separate parts to the above mentioned statement. The first part is a basic necessity; that of respecting the differences of culture and belief of each race and adherents. The second part is the ultimate condition if Malaysia is to survive the storms of racial hatred and bigotry; that we all accept our differences to be our social and even spiritual assets.

With reference to the first part, we must ask the question ourselves, do we respect one anothers belief system and cultural norms? The Malays believe that other races must be subservient to them because of their Malayness and Islam. It is for this reason that many cultural, education and political policies are twisted towards these two items. Now, before the Malays call me a traitor to my own kind, and the Muslims call for my beheading a la Isis fighters, I beg please think awhile. Where has this policy gotten us? 57 years of failure. The attempt to only allow Islam to be taught in public schools and universities have resulted in a deep seated resentment by other religious adherents and the result is the proliferation of vernacular and Islamic religious schools that have deeply divided our society from its very core the young.

The preference of the arts in emphasizing the dramas, poetry and songs of a single ethnic group again fuel this self-alienation. The fact that Dewan Bahasa does not publish adequate books that would bridge the cultural gap is greatly telling of the cancerous nature of our national malady. Just ask any university student a few question on cultural rituals of other races and they would fail miserably. After 57 years there is still no confidence of giving the Vice Chancellorship of a public university to a non-Malay. This is not respecting other cultures. How are we to proceed for the next 57 years if we cannot even bring ourselves to even get a passing mark in this first of all basic necessity?

Benedict Cumberbatch steals the show from Reese Witherspoon and Jon Stewart in Telluride

Aug. 30, 2014, 12:38 PM EST

On an opening night that found the Telluride Film Festival hosting three Toronto-defying world premieres, Jon Stewart enjoyed newfound star power as an off-camera writer-director with the debut of "Rosewater," while Reese Witherspoon had some festivalgoers supposing that "Wild" could have her walking a red-carpet line to another Oscar nomination.

But the man who might have gotten the biggest boost on Friday wasn't there to enjoy his acclaim. Benedict Cumberbatch's ears should have surely been burning, as "The Imitation Game" opened at Telluride to the kind of near-universal kudos that nearly eclipsed the somewhat mixed reactions to the day's other bows.

See video from TheWrap: Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley Race to Break Nazi Code in First 'Imitation Game' Trailer (Video)

"Imitation" director Morten Tyldum did turn up to usher in the film's first public screening, as did Harvey Weinstein. As Oscar bait, this "Game" has nearly everything going for it, combining a critical historical moment the cracking of the German Enigma code, which some say made the difference in the Allies winning WWII with a contemporary hot-button topic, as found in the eventual persecution of Cumberbatch's war hero character for the mere fact of being illegally homosexual.

Gritty and glossy at the same time, in the tradition of some of Weinstein's biggest successes, "Imitation" also has the virtue of being quite good. Weinstein may actually have an easier job than usual, at least when it comes to collecting nominations. Predicting whether Cumberbatch will earn one kind of counts as a "no s t, Sherlock" no-brainer.

Earlier in the day, "Wild" premiered up in the blue yonder at the mountaintop Chuck Jones Cinema, where it was warmly if not wildly received by an invitational patrons-only crowd. Among the well-wishers were Oprah Winfrey, who helped popularize Cheryl Strayed's source memoir by making it a book club selection.

Although reaction to the film among bloggers was as divided as the response for last year's ultimately unsuccessful opener, "Labor Day," "Wild" certainly stands a better chance of making an incursion into the awards picture via Winfrey's support and all the residual good will for Witherspoon. As the story of a woman who walks the entire length of the Pacific Crest Trail in response to the death of her mother (played by Laura Dern in dozens of regularly-scheduled flashbacks), "Wild" is likely to divide critics into camps of those who respect it as a tale of spiritual self-enlightenment and those who wonder how it's even possible to trail-walk while doing that much navel-gazing.

Now, before the Malays call me a traitor to my own kind, and the Muslims call for my beheading a la Isis fighters, I beg please think awhile. Where has this policy gotten us? 57 years of failure. The attempt to only allow Islam to be taught in public schools and universities have resulted in a deep seated resentment by other religious adherents and the result is the proliferation of vernacular and Islamic religious schools that have deeply divided our society from its very core the young.

The preference of the arts in emphasizing the dramas, poetry and songs of a single ethnic group again fuel this self-alienation. The fact that Dewan Bahasa does not publish adequate books that would bridge the cultural gap is greatly telling of the cancerous nature of our national malady. Just ask any university student a few question on cultural rituals of other races and they would fail miserably. After 57 years there is still no confidence of giving the Vice Chancellorship of a public university to a non-Malay. This is not respecting other cultures. How are we to proceed for the next 57 years if we cannot even bring ourselves to even get a passing mark in this first of all basic necessity?

POSITIVE VALUES: Benefits of strong family bonds

They have played pivotal roles in the development of individuals, families, society and the nation.

We must not be a society of selfishness or greed, madly pursuing material wealth. We have to build communities imbued with cooperation, and a caring spirit, moral awareness, social consciousness, psychological balance and spiritual enlightenment.

The world is in turmoil. Although there are great advances in the fields of ICT, sciences and the arts, calamities caused by poor occupational safety and health practices, and steady erosion of our sacrosanct value system have cast a shadow of uncertainty on our future.

Earthquakes, floods, landslides and pollution, such as haze and wanton destruction of the environment, have caused hardships to many. Some of these natural disasters are hard to predict and avoid, and humankind is stumped again and again after the shocks. Respecting and understanding nature and our environment can go a long way. Civilisation can be destroyed if it does not make peace with the environment.

We also hear and see heinous things happening. Little boys and girls are sodomised, raped and murdered. Fathers run amok and kill their children while schoolchildren kill their classmates. Political antagonism, racial and religious extremism. Can it be any worse?

We cannot sit in silence. We must look into ourselves to seek answers, openness and willingness to yield to the sanctity of common human decency.

Not just a transient solution for a moment of relief, but the inculcation of lasting values of respect for our fellow beings. Where else can we sow and nurture the seeds of love, but the family.

The key is the creation of a functional family unit. The power lies in family bonds and its profound influence in the development of our youth.

Research had suggested that family-centred therapy approaches are four or five times more effective than institutional drug rehabilitation programmes that focus on the individual. This is a much neglected area in the treatment of substance abusers in Malaysia. Most moral decadence among our young can be traced to dysfunctional families.
