Thanjavur (Tamil Nadu) [India], December 27: Renowned spiritual leader and Ramcharitmanas exponent, Morari Bapu, delivered a profound message about the essence of bhajan.

Addressing the Manas Hari Bhajan Ramkatha in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, on Wednesday, Morari Bapu said, “All the resources and rituals of the world involve effort. If there is rest anywhere, it is only in bhajan. Bhajan is not a ritual. I keep saying this repeatedly – bhajan is not a means to an end. Bhajan is not a path, it is the destination.”

Drawing from his personal experiences, Morari Bapu said, “As Goswami ji says, Payo Param Vishram (I have found ultimate rest). This bhajan provides true rest.”

He acknowledged the importance of rituals like chanting, penance, fasting and charity, calling them auspicious practices but noted their limitations. He said that these practices, while valuable, can also lead to exhaustion. He said that even maintaining silence, for example, may eventually leave one wondering how long to continue amidst criticisms and challenges.

Morari Bapu highlighted that the mind can experience fatigue from worldly endeavours, but the ultimate rest lies in bhajan.

“In my vocabulary, certain words hold divine significance, and among them, bhajan is a profound and beloved divine word,” he said.

Talking about life’s challenges, Morari Bapu urged the audience to seek meaningful solutions rather than indulging in superficial discussions.

“When we talk about resolving problems, whether in our lives, thinking or habits, we must focus on real solutions. Seek the guidance of a Sadguru (wise or enlightened teacher), but do not engage in trivial talk,” he advised.

In his address, Morari Bapu also spoke about the spiritual significance of Christmas and paid his tributes to former PM Ayala Bihari Vajpayee and Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya on their birth anniversaries. He also spoke about global warming and the importance of tree plantation.

Morari Bapu has devoted his entire life to spreading the teachings of Lord Rama and the Ramayana. The ongoing Ramkatha in Thanjavur is his 948th katha in his six-decades-long spiritual journey. His timeless messages of truth, love and compassion resonate deeply with crores of people worldwide.

New Delhi [India], December 27: The GD-PI procedure in B-School is considered the last and toughest hurdle for aspirants seeking a seat in a prestigious institution or top job. Along with the preparation of the subject matter, the finer aspects of body language and communication often decide whether one sails through these stages or not. Such non-verbal and verbal cues portray confidence, clarity, and credibility traits that the interviewers and panellists hold under close observation.

The Role of Body Language in GD-PI

Your body language speaks just as much, not more, than your words. Therefore, everything you do before you utter a word has already set the tone.

First Impressions Matter:

• Walk into the room with good posture, a strong but natural handshake, and a nice, genuine smile: these things give a little energy to the panel.

• Sit back comfortably in your chair; avoid slouching or fidgeting.

The Power of Eye Contact:

• Maintain eye contact with all members of the panel and/or with co-participants throughout the group discussion. Avoid staring down one panelist or looking down, as this may make you appear evasive or timid.

Gestures and Movements:

• Use open and natural hand gestures to emphasize points but avoid going overboard. Your hands should be placed above the table in front of you; this shows you are engaged.

• Don’t cross your arms, don’t tap your feet, and don’t play around with pens or other objects. This will indicate nervousness or boredom.

Active Listening:

• Show your interest in what the others are saying by nodding slightly. This goes a long way in showing that you value what they have to say and is vital for a group discussion.

• 

The Art of Communication in GD-PI

Body language sets the context; however, it is the clear and impactful communication that carries the ideas forward. Let’s see what to keep in mind to make every word count:

Clarity of Thought:

• You should be clear and logical in responding, starting with an introduction to the body and then a conclusion. Rambling would dilute the message.

• When given a question about current economic challenges, explain the problem, follow it with the analysis, and summarize it in your views.

Tone and Modulation:

• Confidence and enthusiasm should be reflected in your voice. One should speak neither too fast nor too slow. Important points should be stressed on through tone modulation.

• Monotony should be avoided, as it lowers the interest quotient in your answer.

Choice of Words:

• Do not use jargon or big words unless you are sure everyone would understand them. Use simple and direct language.

• For instance, if it were a GD on technology, say, “technology breakthroughs that transform industries” instead of using technical jargons like “disruptive innovation paradigms.”

Engaging with the Group:

• In a group discussion, acknowledge other participants’ points and build your arguments on them. This shows that you are a team player.

• Use respectful sentences starting with phrases like “I go by [name]’s point and would like to add…” to act as a dialogue instead of a debate.

Examples of Winning Body Language and Communication

Let’s consider two scenarios:

Scenario 1 (Body Language Missteps):
The first candidate enters in a slouchy way, avoids eye contact while introducing himself, and fidgets with the pen as he answers questions. This gives the impression of someone who is not confident or prepared.

Scenario 2 (Strong Non-Verbal Communication):
The other candidate enters tall, straightens their posture in front of the panel, confidently makes eye contact, and uses the right hand gestures to express her views with firmness. This is confidence and professionalism.

The second candidate is more likely to leave the interview with a good impression.

Concluding Thoughts

Mastering body language and communication skills is crucial to excelling in top pgdm college GD-PI. These skills go beyond academic knowledge and showcase your personality, confidence, and ability to work with others. By preparing thoroughly, practicing consistently, and seeking feedback, you can walk into your GD-PI with the confidence to leave a lasting impression.

New Delhi [India], December 26: In a historic event at the sacred land of Kurukshetra, 500 NRI students from across the globe came together to recite the entire 700 verses of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita. Organized under the divine guidance of Sri Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji, the revered head of Avadhoota Datta Peetham, Mysuru, this Gita Parayana Yagna marked a monumental occasion of spiritual unification.

Over 50 countries were represented by the global devotee community of Swamiji, who gathered at the Punjabi Dharamshala in Kurukshetra to celebrate the universal teachings of the Gita. For the first time, expatriate Indians participated in a collective recitation of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita on the divine soil of Kurukshetra, commemorating the timeless wisdom of this sacred text.

The Honorable Governor of Haryana, Shri Bandaru Dattatreya, graced the event, emphasizing the Gita’s universal relevance. “The Bhagavad Gita is not just a holy scripture for Hindus but a guiding light for the entire world,” said the Governor in his address.

Earlier this year, Sri Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji orchestrated a similar event on the occasion of Guru Purnima in Chicago, where 10,000 participants joined in the recitation of the Bhagavad Gita. Swamiji’s consistent efforts to propagate the principles of Sanatana Dharma have included grand recitations of the Hanuman Chalisa and the Gita in several countries across the United States and Europe.

Swamiji’s spiritual initiatives have also set remarkable records. In 2015, over 100,000 devotees gathered in Tenali to chant the Hanuman Chalisa, earning a place in the Guinness Book of World Records. Additionally, Swamiji’s Music for Healing concert at the Sydney Opera House in the same year and a continuous 24-hour chanting event at the Karya Siddhi Hanuman Temple in Texas have also been recognized by Guinness World Records.

Born in 1942 in South India, Sri Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji embraced the Dattatreya tradition and underwent years of intense spiritual practice, attaining the state of an Avadhoota. He established the Avadhoota Datta Peetham in Mysuru, which now has branches and temples in over 50 countries. Swamiji is renowned for blending the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita with the Dattatreya philosophy, emphasizing spiritual unity through music, environmental conservation, and devotion.

This extraordinary event further underscores Swamiji’s mission to inspire millions across the globe, fostering cultural harmony and spiritual enlightenment.
