20. Business Ethics in Hinduism
There are three key reasons why ethics plays a key role
in business in Hinduism :
First, it is crucial that ethics have a considerable
influence if we want an efficient, smoothly
operating economy. Ethics helps the market to its
best.
Second, the government, laws and lawyers cannot
resolve certain key problems of business and protect
the society: ethics can.
Third, ethical activity is valuable in itself, for its own
sake, because it enhances the quality of lives and
the work we do-business has an ethical responsibility
for fairness for humanity.
21. What is the Bhagavad-Gita?
The Bhagavad-Gita is known as one of
the most fundamental texts that form the
basis of Hinduism, which has become one
of the world's great religions.
22. The Bhagavad Gita
In the Bhagavad Gita,
Krishna advises Arjuna
about an ethical system
that is applicable even
now. Krishna elaborates on
character-building virtues
and how to avoid ethical
failure.

to be peaceful,
charitable,
simple,
clean,

equitable,
truthful,
obedient and merciful
One should surrender the fruits of one’s actions to God and
avoid greediness.

concise, expert, eloquent, friendly, compassionate, grave,
humble, respectful and sober.
25. Lust is the Culprit
Many trainers try to teach people how to live
ethically with good character. But, still many
people even in the corporate world, fail when it
matters.
26. Gita’s Solution
To overcome lust and avoid ethical
failure, one needs to control one’s
unruly senses with the help of spiritual
strength. But, businesses generally
separate spirituality and work.

relevant and fresh.

harmonious, peaceful, balanced and secular life.
28. Conclusion
Now that you understand the idea of business
ethics, it is important to practice good ethical
behavior.
Ethics are the building block of our society and
thus should be the building block of our
corporations. Henry Kravis states, “If you build
that foundation, both the moral and the ethical
foundation, as well as the business
foundation…then the building won't crumble.”
It is essential not to let greed cloud judgment.
29. Conclusion
We have a tendency to believe in ethical
relativism, in such that individuals must evaluate
actions on the basis of what they feel is best for
themselves because with doing what we best
for we can help other.
Example, ethical relativism requires us to see
murder as a moral action as long as the
murderer believes that the action is best for
himself or herself. Once a person accepts the
appropriateness of criticizing behavior in some
situations, the person has rejected ethical
relativism.
