  Having understood the exchange and what is exchanged, let us understand who participates in the exchange. This is the unique feature of Dharmic Leadership and separates the yagna from other forms of exchange such as barter and contract.In barter, only goods and services are exchanged. Personal beliefs do not matter. In contract, beliefs are either false or true. True beliefs make us respect the law, ethics, and morality. In yagna, inclusion of other people's beliefs allows our beliefs to expand and uncrumple the mind infinitely. As the mind expands, we become generous because we are content and content because we are ambitious. This makes yagna an exercise in transformation unlike contract, which is at best, an exercise in conversion. As belief shifts, so does behavior, and so does business.In Indian mythology, the female form is given to the constituents of the cultural body, that which can be exchanged. The male form is given to the psychological body, that which can transform. Brahma is who we are by default. We consume resources, power and knowledge and, so we chase the goddesses relentlessly. Discontentment makes us Shiva who grows indifferent to the goddess, until he realizes her value. Finally, as Vishnu, we discovers that we are also goddesses, that which can be consumed by others. Here gender is used as a metaphor to convey the complex relationship of mind and matter. We wonder what comes first: hunger or food? This gives rise to the question, who came first: god or goddess? Rig Veda says, 'They gave birth to each other, Daksha to Aditi and Aditi to Daksha.'In this chapter, we will study ambition through stories of Brahma and his sons, contentment through stories of Shiva and generosity through stories of Vishnu.

  A funny, practical and crucial guide for women facing the life-changing prospect of returning to work after having children. 
  When Dolly had her children, the idea of returning to the fast-paced, all-consuming job she had previously loved felt daunting and somehow unprecedented, despite it being the experience of so many millions of women. She struggled to find material to galvanise and reassure her, and to make her feel that anything was possible. 
  In this book, Dolly aims to change all of that. Interweaving practical advice and her own personal experiences with anecdotes, life-hacks and guilt-avoidance strategies from a diverse range of women – from fashion designers to taxi drivers, journalists to actors, lawyers to doctors, bankers, entrepreneurs and restaurateurs – Leaving the Ladder Down is a gift for the next generation of women taking on the trials, challenges and general amusement involved in combining career and motherhood. 
  Equally empowering and accessible, and featuring serious advice from employers, employment lawyers and health specialists to boost knowledge and confidence, this book acts as a ‘ladder down’ to the next generation of working women, from a generation who have experimented their way to making it work. 
  In Leaving the Ladder Down, Dolly Jones, a successful woman herself, shares her growth and development journey, offering top advice on parenting and relationships. This memoir, a blend of autobiography and self-help, is a must-read for those seeking counselling on balancing family and career.

  Compassionate Listening - The...

  Compassionate listening is an art that involves fully engaging with another person’s words, emotions, and underlying experiences. At its core, it goes beyond simply hearing someone speak; it is a deep, intentional act of understanding. It is about listening with the heart as much as with the ears, which requires a unique combination of patience, presence, and empathy. 
  To practice compassionate listening, the first step is to give the speaker our undivided attention. In today’s world, where distractions are constant, the act of truly focusing on the speaker can be revolutionary. This means setting aside your phone, shutting off mental distractions, and focusing solely on the other person. It may sound simple, but it is often a challenge, especially when our minds are preoccupied with our own thoughts, tasks, or judgments. 
  Equally important is the ability to listen with empathy. This involves not only understanding the words being spoken but also feeling and acknowledging the emotions behind them. Empathetic listening allows us to connect with others on a deeper level. It creates a sense of trust and comfort for the speaker, as they feel understood and valued. When we truly listen, we show others that their thoughts and feelings matter, fostering an environment where open communication can flourish.
