Why We Follow Bad Leaders: A Story of a Chicken and a Watchman

  We often ask a simple question: Why do we want honest leaders, but so often end up following corrupt ones? Two short stories explain this problem perfectly. The first is a wise saying from Osho. The second is a dark story about Hitler. When you put these two stories together, they open our eyes. They show us how power really works, and how we can be tricked. Part 1: The Honest Watchman (What We Want) The mystic Osho once said: "The power of honesty is so great, that even a dishonest man wants to keep an honest watchman for his own house." What does this mean? It's simple. Imagine a thief who has stolen a lot of money. When he needs to hire someone to guard that money, who does he hire? Does he hire another thief? No. He hires an honest person. Why? Because he is afraid the other thief will steal from him . This story shows us a powerful truth: Everyone, even a bad person, knows that trust and honesty are the most valuable things. We are all like that. In our hearts, w...

You have given me so much—this life, the ultimate celebration of life, and now this divine existence. Let me do a little service for you! I don't want to feel that I could do nothing for you when you have done so much for me! Please grant me this small honor. I know you do not need anyone or anything, but my heart will be heavy with the thought that I could not do anything for my Lord!" Vishnu said, "Will you be able to do it? It will be very difficult." But the devotee was insistent. So Vishnu said, "Alright, I am thirsty." Vishnu floats in the Ocean of Milk—what thirst could he have there! But for this devotee, he said, "Fine, I am thirsty.

The Ultimate Guide for Entrepreneurs: From Social Responsibility to Shared Value Dominance

For generations, the narrative of business and social good has been one of separation. We called it Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), a noble but often siloed effort to "give back." It was the department of good deeds, the annual report footnote, the charitable check written after the profits were counted. It was about being a good neighbor. As we stand in the dynamic landscape of 2025 Nepal, a new, more powerful paradigm is taking hold. What if our nation's most pressing challenges—in agriculture, wellness, tourism, and beyond—are not obstacles to be managed, but the single greatest business opportunities of our lifetime? This is the revolutionary promise of Creating Shared Value (CSV) . It’s a fundamental shift in mindset from charitable neighbor to strategic game-changer. For any entrepreneur, this isn't just a feel-good trend; it's a powerful blueprint for building a business that is more resilient, more profitable, and profoundly more impactful than you ...
