Taittariya Upanishad, which has for ages strengthened our centres of education, contains invaluable advice to students passing out from an institute of learning - Satyam Vada Dharmam Chara
“ Forever speak the truth and follow the dharma”
Truthful disclosure of State of Affairs i.e. transparency operations and transactions.
In the Karna Parva of the Mahabharata Chapter 69 says: Dharma is for the stability of society, the maintenance of social order and the general well-being and progress of humankind i.e. the Overall Governance
In Ayodhya Kand of Ramayana, Lord Rama explains the concept of Governance as “ to provide the maximum happiness for the maximum number of people for the maximum period, based as it is on the principles of Dharma –righteousness and moral values.”
Mahatma Gnadhi said “The Customer is King”
This is the soul behind modern Marketing Management
We have been worshipping 33 Crore Gods signifying various species, plants, cosmic elements, … or 33 Crore Components of Nature.
We Care for Panchtatvas - Prithvi, Jal, Vaayu, Akaash and Agni that make a human being
This is our approach to Environment Protection.
The four essential principles of Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy - Truth, Ahimsa, Trusteeship and Constructive Action are widely quoted the worldover. Gandhi said we don't own the talent but we are appointed "Trustees" by God and so we must use the talent to help others, less fortunate or talented than us. The Board of Director being Trustees should work with highest level of integrity and independence and strive for growth of all stakeholders.
Similarly, Corporates are also expected to use their Capacity, Knowledge and Resources towards maximisation stakeholders’ value and well-being and progress of humankind (i.e. Dharma) through Transparency, accountability and truthful disclosure of state of affairs (i.e.Truth)
This is our own age old mantra of Good Governance.
