If you ask an
internet savvy youth working in a well known MNC what Team Work is,
invariably the answer would be– The process of working
collaboratively with a group of people in order to achieve a goal.
This is a good definition of team work but not complete. We need to
go beyond the conference room definition of a team to understand the
meaning of team work.
Truly speaking,
practical spirituality is the sole answer to the above
problem. When we start taking small steps on the path of
spirituality, ego weans away and gradually the inner power becomes
stronger. Spirituality makes an individual resort to tolerance and
constructive criticism. And, when such individuals come together as a
team, they do not land up in blame games in the event of flaws. One
may note that practical spirituality is nothing but meditating upon
one's inner light revealed by a 'true' spiritual mentor.
Team work
demands respect for team members. In fact, respect is something
natural, as all individuals respect themselves. When we say, I
respect you, it means I trust you and what you say or do carries
value. Each member in the team needs to value the other's words and
deeds. This way mutual respect and trust are established in the team.
Each member in the team feels valued and this ensures best output for
the team as each member puts in his best.
Yes of course, it is
possible! To lead us to such a state of eternal bliss, spiritual
teachers invite us from time to time. Mahatma Buddha used to tell his
disciples often, ‘Practice peace!’ Sufi Saint Rumi proclaimed,
“Do not entangle into the prison of fear. Practice Silence—get yourself liberated from the imprisonment of frightening thoughts.Practice Silence.”
Remember, sealing
the lips and abstaining from talking don’t mean you are silent.
“Manah Mrityum Maunam” – When the mind dies, silence
sprouts! Death of the mind means: controlling the mind to the extent
of thoughtlessness. A state in which no useless or disturbing thought
is permitted to evolve! Through this thoughtless or say mindful
state, the fountain of bliss emerges!
To reach that state,
genuine Spiritual Gurus have reiterated that one and only Eternal
Technique (Brahm Gyan), which is known with different names. Lord
Krishna named it “Rajayoga.” Sage Patanjali gave it a more
academic expression by saying, “Yog Chit Vritti Nirodh.”
Upanishads proclaimed it as “Atma Gyan.”
