Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
In the present global scenario, during childhood, the child faces multiple challenges and
threats day by day, and can be overcome by the knowledge which is to be found in the
scriptures and epics as of supreme authority despite being ancient. Since everything is
constantly changing, the veracity of such knowledge has never been greater than it is now.
This paper continues to show how using the ideas from many scriptures and epics might help
one emerge from shifting paradigms in a previously unknown way. The teachings of the
Mahabharata, Gita, Quran, and Bible are becoming relevant in the present context and
serving as guiding forces for resolving several childhood issues. All the relevant childhood
issues of the present era such as Vision, Leadership, Motivation, Efficiency, Goal-directed
behavior, Decision making and Coordination, managing quality, and managing children at the
global level are very well discussed in most of our Epics. Fundamentally, been observed that
the thoughts incurred from western management deals with the issues related to material,
external and peripheral levels, whereas the epics show the path to a child as to how these
issues can easily be resolved at the grass root level of human thinking. Therefore, this ancient
information encourages us to face the unknown side of life, no matter how difficult it may be,
with great ease and certainty. The clutter, confusion, and chaos of the modern age, is a
competitive world, and this paper attempts to outline various concepts that have proven
valuable over time on how to successfully navigate childhood changes.
