The modern workplace is periled with the issues of burnout and stress. One of the main reasons is the diminishing conjunction between the work and the inner spirit. Dr. Ajinkya will try to explain the importance of Karma Yoga in the modern workplace context and how one can follow the teachings of Bhagavadgītā in the modern world. He will also share the findings of his research which shows that Karma Yoga can help people cope with the adverse effects of work and become happier and efficient. Karma Yoga provides an intelligent way of performing routine actions in such a way that the work itself can become the means of spiritual enrichment.

However the external world that we create in office and life are nothing but manifestations of our inner Consciousness – that is inner thoughts, feelings and beliefs. In fact there cannot be effective external governance without inner governance. A leader or manager becomes a an effective and brilliant one when he knows learns how to govern himself, discover his latent, inner potentialities and apply them consciously to outer governance.
