Chapter 2 - National Progress and Enterprise

'Nations' that to glory aspire,

'Their' common men should prosper ,

By nurturing in every household,

An enterprising culture. ||1||

Important components of progress,

Are entrepreneurs and Government,

Surpassing new horizons,

Should be a joint achievement.||2||

Entrepreneurs could be of several sorts,

Industrialists, Organisers, Farmers, Writers,

Researchers, Directors, Professionals,

And indeed many others. ||3||

Those who are Government servants,

Strive to be emblems of the Nation's pride,

Serving people is serving Him,

Is a thought they must abide.||4||

But he who common man harasses,

Fails indeed in his duty,

He spiritually degrades himself ,

Know ye' this for surety.||5||

And so is the entrepreneurs' duty,

Work for Quality , Excellence,

And by economic gainful activity,

'Income of the Nation' enhance.||6||

When self employed, small entrepreneurs,

Grow in any society,

The pace of national progress sure,

Shall multiply rapidly.||7||

Be it service or manufacturing,

Look for needs of the customer,

Seek and ye' shall find them,

Know this '0' entrepreneur.||8||

First strive and deserve , then desire,

So have saints to us told,

This is national progress 'mantra' (formula)

In your hearts you must hold. ||9||

|| And so ends Enterprise Shastra (Science) second chapter ||

|| Auspicious good wishes ||
