Supreme KNOWLEDGE & Skilled PERSONALITY

This can be an inspiration to number of Librarians, important sloka from Gita.

Yatra yoegeswara Krishno Yatra Partho
Dhanurdharaha,
Tatra Srirvijayor bhuthi
Dhruva neetirmatiramama

Means – Where ever there are Lord Krishna the supreme knowledge, and Arjuna- the most skilled personality, Victory is bound to be there.

Krishna is and embodiment of knowledge (Jnana) and Arjuna is symbol of skill. Hence wherever there is knowledge, and skill, success is inevitable.

Any Librarian is supposed to be a knowledgeable person and Users are the representatives of skills. If knowledge is there, success of running library just will follow. Once the knowledgeable Librarian is supplemented by skillful group of co-staff, success is bound to be there with any library organization.

What philosophy says in Gita?

Karmanyeva Adhikaraste
Maphaleshu Kadhachana,
Makarma phalaheturbu,
Mate sangostya Karmani..

Means – One has the right for the prescribed activity but never for the result. One should never be motivated by the results of actions nor should there be any attachment in the activities. In other words, all living entities have the right to perform actions but none have the right to claim the results. An aspirant of the higher target must know that to hanker or yearn for reward for one’s actions will only lead to emotional attachment but not in actual achievement.
