• Our behavior with family- society – surroundings (including plants, animals)
• For basic needs of family necessary ‘Artharjan’ is essential.
• While living successful life efforts for ‘Saarthakata’ necessary.
• Understanding ‘Self’- not only Body, mind, intellect
• Importance of Inter-relatedness
• Everyone’s likings, thinking pattern different – acceptance necessary
• Combined efforts for Family well-being
• Expansion of ‘I’ to ‘We’
• Oneness concept

Pointers for Organizational Behavior –

• Mostly human beings needs to live in a group
• When people of different temperaments come and live together, mutual adjustment is a universal problem; as in the family so in the organization.
• The conduct of the members in the group  speaks for the organization
• Strong will is required to live and work together
• The intensity of the feelings for mission would make us adjust with any member in the group
• The norms of communication for keeping the constructive atmosphere
• WHAT TO SPEAK (ii) WHOM TO SPEAK and (iii) WHERE TO SPEAK.
• The best service you can offer to the organization is not to speak ill of anybody
• If oneness is there then motives are not imputed and Bhavartha of words is taken
