Harmony at Work Interview on Bloomberg-UTV

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

On Thursday, 3 December, Dharmaraj appeared on Rashmi Bansal’s TV programme “Stay Hungry: Cracking Careers with Rashmi”. The show airs on business channel Bloomberg UTV.

Here is the video. The following is transcript of the unabridged interview. It has been edited slightly for clarity.

Hi Dharmaraj. First of all, what is ‘Harmony at Work’? What is this program all about?

Hi Rashmi. Thank you for having me here with you. Harmony at Work offers stress management, personal productivity, and leadership training for corporates. We take our hats off to all you corporates because the pace is grueling and we’re running at top speed just trying to keep up with you.

We base our offerings on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, who wrote Autobiography of a Yogi. His teachings have been applied to daily life by his direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda. One course that Kriyananda wrote is called Success and Happiness through Yoga Principles—that’s our training manual.

Success, happiness, and harmony are things that everybody wants. There are so many powerful techniques that we can practice to achieve these. (more…)

From Rashmi Bansal, author Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish, and Founder/Editor, JAM Magazine:

I think the biggest issue I see with young people today is that they have taken this whole thing of “I’ll get into the right college” as the end of their ambition. They try very hard, and they struggle, and they get into the college of their dreams like an IIT or IIM or whatever. Or, on the other hand, they don’t get into the college of their dreams. Either way, they don’t see that that’s just the first point. That’s the steppingstone for their whole life. (more…)

Thank for talking with us, Rashmi.

Thank you, Dharmaraj. It’s nice to be on the other side of the interview table, for a change!

How did the idea of the book come to you?

I have been an entrepreneur and have been fascinated by entrepreneurship. I have covered entrepreneurship extensively in my writing over the years. IIM Ahmedabad (IIM-A) approached me and said, “We have this idea for a book, and what do you think?” I said, “I think it’s a great idea and I think I should do it.” I just knew that I had to do this book. It was also an opportunity to meet people and just understand what this whole journey is all about. (more…)
