Description
As we experience the phenomenal progress of modern world due to tremendous technological development in all fields of life, we find very distinctly that modern man is at the peak of enjoying worldly pleasures - what we call "higher standards of living". However we also notice that he is not able to match this illusory happiness with what our masters call "high standard of life".
As early as the beginning of the last century, Swami Vivekananda had realized that scientific progress without a spiritual base would lead to the destruction of humanity. He was one of the first modern saints to try to bring spiritual values into management, with the firm conviction that the East cannot copy the western management style because of wide difference in culture and values.
