VISHVARUPA
Some of the memorable names from Mahabharata in the context of management are Bhishma, Dhritarashtra, Dharmaputra Yudhisthira, Karna, Abhimanyu, Draupadi and the inimitable Lord Krishna himself.
Bhishma is the perfect example of an upright manager caught in irreconciliable conflicts who was forced to take wrong decisions by forces beyond his control. With Bhisma, his vow of celibacy takes precedence over everything else, including the public will. His major concern was that his vow must remain intact. His motivation is highly complex. Dhritarashtra's was an example of warped decisions caused by extreme attachment to his son Duryodhana.
Yudhisthira is a shining example of managerial wisdom, though he also was compelled to deviate from his principled stand on practical considerations, faced with a ruthless enemy. Krishna is the perfect example of a leader-manager who kept his eye on the ball till the desired outcome was achieved. Draupadi is the classical model of a woman powerhouse who kept others motivated till the goal is achieved. Abhimanyu, the son of Arjuna, is an example of a dare-devil leader without a business-plan of escape. He fought his way into the chakravyuha, but failed to come out and was brutally cornered and killed by Drona and others. Karna is a tragic example of a manager who fought his way up the ladder but could not keep up with the pressure and tensions and met a tragic end.
The great sage Kashyapa, the wish-born son of Lord Brahma, was married to the two daughters Kadru and Vinata of Daksha. "Let a thousand sons of incomparable strength and valor be born to me!" Kashyapa said, Vinata laid two eggs. She gave them to her maid-servants for safekeeping. Five-hundred years passed, but the eggs had not hatched. Vinata grew impatient, for her sister already had a thousand snakes as her offspring. She broke open one of her eggs. The child grew angry at his mother and said, "How could you be so impatient? You have nearly killed me by your rash act. I curse you to slavery! Do not disturb my brother in the other egg. If you wait for another five hundred years, he shall be the means of delivering you from your servitude."
two sisters Kadru and Vinata were involved in an argument. Kadru asked her sister, "Sister, what is the color of the divine horse Uchaishravas that belongs to Indra?" Her sister replied, "It is of a flawless white color, right from its nose to its magnificent tail." Kadru said, "You are wrong. While it is true that his face and his body are of a flawless white color, I think that his tail alone is a shiny black color. Tell you what, let us have a bet on this topic. If you are right, I shall become your slave. If I am right, you must become my slave instead. Vinata accepted the bet. She was confident that she would win. Kadru knew that the horse was white through and through, so she hatched a plan. She called her sons and said, "I have bet with your aunt that the horse Uchaishravas possesses a black tail. You must make my words come true. Go forth and entwine yourself around his tail and give it a black appearance."
The snakes did not want to be a part of this deception. Kadru became exceedingly angry. She said, "How dare you disobey the command of your mother? There is no use in having offspring that disobeys my commands. I curse that all you will be destroyed by fire before too much time has elapsed!" (Note: This is the curse that was responsible for the so many snakes being destroyed in King Janamejaya's snake-sacrifice.) When Lord Brahma heard this curse, he further strengthened it by saying, "So be it!". When Kashyapa heard how his sons were cursed, and that his father Brahma had also sanctioned it, he went to Brahma and pleaded with him to mitigate the curse. Brahma said, "Your sons are wicked. Their poison is threatening to destroy all creation. If left unchecked, nothing else can live on the earth. However, not all of them shall be destroyed. Those who are virtuous, who did not swerve from the path of truth shall be saved."
The lessons always started by Always speak truth. Do not be angry. Help others". Everyone except Yudhishthir learned it.
