DHIRUBHAISM
A Remarkable Work Philosophy OF Dhirubhai Ambani
Authored BY: A G Krishnamurthy
A Summary

‘WE BET ON PEPOLE’………..Dhirubhai Ambani

Dhirubhaism— the remarkable work philosophy of Dhirubhai Ambani – by A G Krishnamurthy is an attempt to capture the unique insights that Dhirubhai shared with the author during their long association. The 15 Dhirubhaisms put together bring out the work philosophy of Dhirubhai and gives us a glimpse into the remarkable thinking process and practices of one of India’s most successful entrepreneurs. Thus, in true sense, this book is not a biography but the principles which took this great leader to such heights. Dhirubhaism, like most other isms is a philosophy or an attitude. The author, having closely observed Dhirubhai’s style of functioning has presented fifteen of them. They are not complicated attitudes either – they are simple viewpoints. But executing them took courage and as a consequence showed spectacular results.

The book, like the previous two: Invisible CEO and Desi Dream Merchants by AG Krishnamurthy are simple, crisp to the point and engrossing. The easy narrative is bound to keep the average Indian reader turning the page without the need to consult a dictionary. It is an effective echo of Dhirubhai’s famed ability to communicate his message in short, clear sentences.

The author of the book, A G Krishnamurthy, is the founder chairman and managing director of Mudra Communications Pvt Ltd., India’s third and largest Advertising agency, which began with a start up capital of Rs.35, 000 and one client. Mr.Krishanamurthy joined Reliance Industries in 1976 as their Advertising Manager. The agency’s two major brands, Vimal Fabrics and Rasna Soft Drink Concentrate have been nurtured by him from infancy to their current status as two of India’s leading and most recognized brands. In 1991, he set up Mudra Institute of

    Dharmic faiths are similar, so one has to inspect each religion to understand the differences. People of these faiths are often confused for one another, but if you are willing to look you can find the differences.

    In Hindu dharma, marriage is viewed as a sacrament and not a contract. Hindu marriage is a life-long commitment of one wife and one husband, and is the strongest social bond that takes place between a man and a woman. A wedding is an important religious ceremony in the Hindu religion and one of the most important of the sixteen Hindu sanskars or sacraments. It is not only establishing the bond between two people, but also the bond between two families. For a Hindu marriage is the only way to continue the family and thereby repay his debt to his/her ancestors. Judaism's emphasis upon the value of marriage is reflected in the fact that it calls marriage kiddushin, "sacred" or "holy." Marriage, in other words, is a sacred union, according to the…

    Hinduism has neither a specific moment of origin nor a specific founder. Rather, the tradition understands itself to be timeless, having always existed. Indeed, its collection of sacred texts is known, as a whole, as Sanatana Dharma, "The Eternal Teaching" (Suhag, 2009). It is thus a complex tradition that encompasses numerous interrelated religious doctrines and practices that have some common characteristics but which lack any unified system of beliefs and practices.…

Chuyia (Sarala) is an eight-year-old widow who is initially unable to comprehend her future and questions her religion and placement at the ashram. Alternately, Chuyia’s childlike spirit inspires the other woman with liveliness and affection. Kalyani is a beautiful young woman forced into prostitution to earn money for herself and for an older, manipulative widow, Madhumati. But, Kalyani’s beauty catches the interest of a Gandhi’s follower,Narayan and the mutual attraction sparks a forbidden romance between a widow and a commoner. The religiously-minded Shakuntala is a mother figure for Chuyia and Kalyani and provides them with direction and support; Shakuntala is knowledgeable, unlike many of the other widows. Chuyia and Kalyani are the primary figures in the film and from their friendship stems a happiness and unexpected disappointments. Given their younger ages, both have the most to learn from life.…

During Brian’s visits to the plants he observed many employees socializing instead of working, and found out that performance review and pay for performance were unheard at Bindi and employees were rarely dismissed no matter how poorly they performed their jobs.

    est poems of humanity. If you are a composer, please put it to music and make it into a song. The last two lines should sound like thundering silence, the silencing of all speculation, of all philosophies, of all notions and ideas. The gatha begins in the realm of conventional truth and ends in the realm of absolute truth. The first line describes reality as we usually perceive it. “All formations are impermanent.” This is something concrete that we notice as soon as we start paying attention. The five elements that make up our sense of personhood—form, feelings, perceptions, mental formations, and consciousness—all are flowing and changing day…
