a few more ... lessons!

Hello Dr Mahanta,


thank you Dr. ji,

Well ..Pallavi has replied to your question in affirmative manner..well i take the contra-view on this ..

First of all - we all are chelas to some extent as we all have to learn a lot from others..the day we feel we know everything..our education & learning ends then & then...i can't claim to know everything ..even am learning from you & Pallavi as well..

Secondly..when we help others - we don the role of Guru..to disseminate the learnings & knowledge..for that subject only..period n then we need to reverse our roles..to learn from them..

For instance ..Sunayana who a couple of months ago didn’t have much idea about Employee Relations…today has posted a detailed article on the same…which has exceeded my expectations..& have the opportunity to learn a thing or two from her..

Therefore we all are chelas & Gurus..we need to learn a lot from others ..today the freshers who post the problems in section " Talk to seniors" are my tools to learnings..which can be interpreted as they are my GURUS as well..

Indian History has many examples..Eklavya..who learned the archery from the statute of his Guru and even became better than Arjuna which compelled the Guru to ask for his thumb as Guru Dakshina…

From Management section …I can think of Charles Schawab & Henry Ford..who followed this maxim..

Cheers,

Rajat
