JRD
Tata The Man of Steel jrd tata a pioneering aviator
Who was JRD? Frequently
referred to as the Man of steel... JRD Tata is the scion of the Indian technological
setup. JRD Tata believed in the concept that infrastructure building carried the
utmost importance in the society as of today. The
Tata group as of date is recognized by the Indians not as an industrial powerhouse
but the utmost an individual or a group can do for a country. JRD Tata was a true
Indian at heart... unlike most industrial houses and the politicians of today. JRD
Tata... was a one man show! This one individual was able to build the
complete infrastructure our country India has as on date. Most industrial houses
believe and live on the surmise that monetary gains are the first priority. For
JRD Tata it was the last priority. JRD
Tata believed on the surmise that if the country grows by the grace of God
and countrymen... the Tata Empire is bound to grow. He was a true trustee in whose
hands the building of India was handed over by God
Almighty. He fulfilled his dream of building a strong infrastructure
for the country in his lifetime. Not
a single politician or a bureaucrat could ever corrupt his mind. He was a pillar
of faith
for his countrymen. The present generation always looked forward to what JRD Tata
was in his life. They not only learned their lessons in life by trying to emulate
his teachings to the society... but by practicing values for which JRD Tata stood
all his life. JRD
Tata was what he was! A pillar unto himself! He was an embodiment of true love
for his countrymen. During the lifetimes of JRD Tata nowhere in the total Tata
Empire one could find unethical practices in vogue. Some
of the prime teachings of JRD Tata include his passion for living as a true trustee,
remaining fair to all and sundry in every walk of life, never trying to undermine
the trust... his subordinates carried in him and themselves.
JRD Tata lived as a true trustee for in his lifetime he never built a house for
himself. According to JRD Tata life was to be lived only as a true trustee as
everything belonged to God Almighty. Being a mere caretaker in the hands of God...
JRD Tata did what a true trustee is desired to do.
His
arguments for not building his house was that if he had ever built a house of
his own then it was possible that his wife may ask for building a house befitting
his status. If that was so then it would not be possible for JRD Tata to match
the likings and preferences of the Saudi kings who had the fittings in their bathroom
made of gold and diamonds.
To avoid the day-to-day bickering JRD made Taj Mahal Palace Hotel his home. In
this hotel he had two presidential suites built. One he used for himself and the
other was only available for the highest executives of various countries. And
JRD Tata used to say that his most important businesses were conducted by him
while traveling in the lift with these executives.
What
an extraordinary fait accompli JRD Tata had!
Living as a true trustee...
JRD Tata believed in the fact that the total worth of Tata Empire was never owned
by him. In dealings where vested interest dissolves forever... the outcome is
always bright and favorable. JRD Tata believed in the true value of a human
being and in return people believed in him.
Such
was the belief in JRD Tata that even one verbal commitment from him was enough
for the society. No pondering over the written facts... JRD Tata always believed
in what a human being stood for. He had tremendous faith in his employees and
in return the employees... the workmen believed in him from their heart.
JRD Tata: All about jeh J.R.D. Tata of tata industries, j r d tata profile,
scholarship, letters quotes!
The Tata Empire is primarily responsible for building the entire technological
infrastructure of the country. This inculcates such a feeling of enthusiasm and
patriotism among the young generation of today that India still survives the onslaught
from the corrupt political and the administrative Arena. If
life is to be lived truly it must be lived on the same terms as lived JRD Tata.
To emulate JRD Tata in practical life is a gigantic task but not unachievable.
If JRD Tata could do it then the common man of today can also do it! For it is
the truth behind the dealings which paves way for the strength in character requisite
of becoming one like JRD Tata.
Air India, Tata institute of social sciences, Tata institute of fundamental research,
Taj group, Tata memorial hospital are some of the mementos presented by the doyen
of Indian industry, a pioneering aviator popularly known as JRD or jeh to the
society.

| Immortality
meaning and concept Immortality
... a word framed by Lord and not coined by a Human Being has altogether a different
meaning than we self centered understand! Who becomes immortal? One who after
intense Meditation is able to live longer compared to a normal Human Being or
one, who does not have to manifest a body again and again and rests in peace in
Baikuntha (Abode of God totally different from Heaven).

God
the Creator and Man Gods Creator:
"Brahman, the Creator" is one. Gods can be many. Brahman created the Universe
and in it all Atmans (Souls). These Atmans manifest themselves in different forms
to purify themselves. Once purified ... they attain Moksha (liberation). The purified
Atmans have been accorded a status by the Society ... we call them God. Man Gods...
are those Human Beings, those jivas who in their Life time have liberated themselves
from the cycle of birth and death and have become immortal (amar). They are known
as amar for they shall not manifest again.

Human Evolution and becoming Immortal
All these enlightened
souls like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed
had transcended life itself. They had become immortal in the true sense that they
would not have to indulge again in manifesting life thereafter. Life had truly
come full circle for these godly souls.

Letter to all mankind and Immortality
Understand the noble
goal of "Atman" within you ... cause for all misery and fear vanishes. None can
cause harm to any "Atman" being immortal. The "Atman" can not itself liberate
to rejoin the "Lord" until it has cleansed itself (Karma
is exhausted) through various manifested physical forms.

Humans
Beings and becoming immortal It
is absolutely clear that no human being can directly either go to heaven or the
kingdom of God. The domain of heaven and hell and also the kingdom of God is open
for soul atmans only. In the physical manifest form of life as a human being or
any other form... any wishful thinking of becoming an immortal does not exist
in the cosmic system. | |
