Nishkama Karma Yoga and the Business World
Abstract
Today’s business world is dominated by stiff competition and survival is becoming increasingly difficult. This has also resulted in negative competitive behavior and degeneration in value-based business practices, whose end has become more important that the means. The karma theory provides and operational basis for constructive achievement and is perhaps more relevant today than in the Mahabharata times. The doctrine of karma yoga emphasizes detachment and equanimous attitutde towards success and failure and inculcates virtues like sacrifice, dedication, belief and greater good of the people as the motive for action.
