Srimad Bhagavad Gita (SBG) is a very popular spiritual classic of Indian philosophy comprised of 700 verses that form a part of 'Bhishma Parva' in the Mahabharata, the world's longest epic. No commentary and critique of the Mahabharata are considered complete without the emphasis on the SBG and its teachings. Hence, SBG is the 'kernel' that guides mankind by eradicating ignorance and imparting self-knowledge. It is a practical tool that guides one in profound crisis and imparts several self-help tools that are practical even in the contemporary era. The dialogue between Srikrishna and Arjuna explores the origin of creation, nature of the body, soul, mind, and re-incarnation. It recommends one to walk on the path of 'Dharma' (i.e. righteousness duty) performing three key things: i) Righteous Karma (Action); ii) Unswerving Bhakti (Devotion) and iii) Commitment to Jnana (wisdom). The 700 verses are organized into 18 chapters and as three hexads of 6 chapters that guide one to attain 'Moksha' (salvation). The supreme lord also summarizes the key teachings of the Upanishads at relevant places which is a marvel in itself. This short perspective attempts to convey the key message and essence of SBG through a selected ten verses chosen by Sri Swami Dayananda Saraswati (an Advaita Vedantic philosopher) of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam (Anaikatti and Rishikesh, India).

A severa crise econômica e social que afeta o Estado do Rio de Janeiro desde 2014 foi intensificada pelos efeitos trazidos pela crise sanitária iniciada em março de 2020. Esta convergência de crises restringe as possibilidades de desenvolvimento do estado. O estímulo à inovação e a resolução de desafios societais complexos são caminhos para a superação do atual cenário. Neste sentido, este artigo tem como objetivos: i) realizar uma caracterização dos principais ativos do Sistema Regional de Inovação fluminense, com base no levantamento de dados primários e secundários associado ao uso de estatística descritiva; ii) refletir, a partir dos resultados encontrados e de outros trabalhos de nossa autoria em parceria com colaboradores, sobre os desafios que o estado possui para construir uma agenda de desenvolvimento pós Covid-19. Os resultados apontam que o SRI possui ativos financeiros, humanos e tecnológicos relevantes, contudo precisa articular melhor os subsistemas de geração e aplicação do conhecimento; aumentar a taxa de inovação da economia; e se desprender da puramente lógica setorial e de vocações, utilizando seus ativos para elaborar uma política de inovação orientada por missões, que articule diversos atores e tecnologias e tenha como foco solução de grandes desafios societais por meio da geração, aplicação e difusão do conhecimento científico-tecnológico.

PurposeThis paper aims to present an empirically driven crisis management framework of complementary human resource management (HRM) bundles that can be utilized in simultaneously managing the health crisis, financial crisis and disruptions to business operations through lockdown and other government restrictions propelled by the COVID-19 pandemic.Design/methodology/approachThe framework is developed employing qualitative methodology, drawing from the successful HRM practices adopted by 26 Sri Lankan companies in battling the many crises of COVID-19 and using the soft HRM approach as the theoretical basis.FindingsThe findings report a framework that consists of three key HRM bundles (health and safety bundle, cost-saving bundle and employee motivation and engagement bundle) entailing an array of inter-related, internally consistent, complementary and mutually reinforcing HRM practices and HRM activities. These HRM bundles and the HRM practices as well as the HRM activities therein, indicate how a softer approach to managing employees can be used during a crisis.Practical implicationsThe framework will inform the HRPs of the HRM bundles, HRM practices and HRM activities that can be used to manage the multiple crises created by COVID-19 and other similar pandemics.Originality/valueThe study contributes to and expands the knowledge of HRM in crisis management generally and HRM in a global pandemic more specifically.

The Law on Villages regulates and recognizes the traditional rights of village communities as living rights, which can be implemented and maintained by village communities. These traditional rights need to be implemented in government and village community life. One of the village communities who have many traditional rights is the village community in Lelea District, Indramayu Regency. How is the implementation of traditional village rights in the Law on Villages in rural communities in Lelea District, Indramayu Regency? The problems mentioned above have been investigated through normative legal research methods and empirical legal research. The results of the study illustrate that the Indramayu Regency Government has implemented traditional village rights into Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2017 concerning Village Government. Furthermore, these traditional rights are implemented in the practice of village community life, for example in the village community of Lelea District, Indramaayu Regency. The form of implementation is that local, sub-district and village governments allow village communities to carry out their traditional rights, for example the celebration of Ngarot culture, Alms of the Earth, Alms of visiting, celebration of Mapag Sri, and others. The results of the research are very useful for the development of rural legal science and rural communities in implementing and maintaining their traditional rights.

Nama Ira Oktaviani. NPM 2116500024. EVALUASI PROGRAM PENINGKATAN KAPASITAS APARATUR DESA KARANGANYAR KECAMATAN PAGERBARANG KABUPATEN TEGAL TAHUN 2019. Skripsi. Ilmu Pemerintahan Universitas Pancasakti Tegal. Dosen Pembimbing I: Sri Sutjiatmi, M.Si dan Dosen Pembimbing II: Unggul Sugiharto, M.Si. Pemberdayaan masyarakat yang telah berjalan di Desa Karanganyar Kecamatan Pagerbarang Kabupaten Tegal selama tahun 2017-2019 secara normative sudah berjalan. Hanya saja masih banyak program-program yang sesungguhnya bukan bagian dari pemberdayaan masyarakat namun masuk ke dalam program pemberdayaan, ditambah alokasi anggaran yang setiap tahun mendapatkan porsi minimum yakni rata-rata di bawah 5% menunjukan Pemerintah Desa Karanganyar belum serius melaksanakan pemberdayaan masyarakat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Deskriptif Kualitatif dengan menggunakan dua sumber data yaitu data primer dan data sekunder. Data primer diambil dari wawancara secara langsung dengan Perangkat Desa Karanganyar, BPD, Ketua Paguyuban Pedagang Pasar, dan Karang Taruna. sedangkan data sekunder diambil dari dokumen profil Desa Karanganyar. Hasil yang diperoleh dalam penelitian ini yaitu, keterlibatan masyarakat dalam agenda pemberdayaan masih sangat minim, hal ini terjadi karena keterbatasan pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai pemberdayaan masyarakat. Sementara dalam hal penyusunan program masyarakat juga sangat minim partisipasi masyarakat, sehingga program yang disusun mayoritas tidak relevan dengan kondisi di masyarakat alhasil tujuan pemberdayaan yang seharusnya menciptakan masyarakat mandiri menjadi tidak tercapai. Kata Kunci: Pemberdayaan Masyarakat, Partisipasi, Kemandirian

Indonesia's financial inclusion and literacy index level in the Islamic capital market sector is quietly low at around 0.02% and 0.01%. Though Indonesia is known as a country with the largest Muslim population in the world with more than 85%. Furthermore, the fact of Indonesia is the 4th highest growth country in the capital market industry in Asia-Pacific throughout 2017. The potential for growth and development of the Islamic capital market in Indonesia is very high, but this fact is not followed by the growth rate of financial literacy and inclusion index especially in the capital market sector. The aim of this paper is to identify the new applicable strategic approach to improve Islamic financial literacy and inclusion in term of Islamic capital market sector. This research uses qualitative methods with a literature review from the article journal, government report, news report, and others in reviewing, identifying, and knowing the strategies that will be implemented. The results show there are six specific strategies used in improving Islamic capital market literacy and inclusion indexes namely, rebranding investment negative stereotype, building a sustainable promotion and campaign through offline and online platform, creating an online integrated marketplace for Islamic capital market products, improving corporate Sukuk and introducing a new SRI Sukuk product, forming agents & groups of Islamic capital market lovers, and monitoring & evaluating the applied strategy.

In human society, from the time of the Sangam to this period, politics can be bound up with social life. Accordingly, literature and grammars were developed. Through these, it would be appropriate to know the history of literature and the great social history of literature. In the early days, Jaffna Kasichetti, M.S. People like Purnalingampillai have recorded the basis on which the poets write history. After that Ka. Subramaniapillai was the first to write the history of Tamil literature in a literary and century-based content system. He was followed by Sri Lankan V. Selvanayagam was the first to write literary history in a political content manner. After these, he has created a history of Tamil literature from the point of view of the Tamil language. The Sangam period was called the "Dark Ages." Venkataraman mentions. Because of its historical background, the members of the Velar community took possession of the land from the tribal community and made it their own. This shows that they have transformed the tribal community into slaves to themselves. It is noteworthy that the content of literary history is written based on the synthesis code. Following this code, we learn that literary historians have written with an emphasis on social history, political history and time history.

La concentración económica se establece mediante la relación entre un número cada vez más reducido de empresas y el porcentaje de control progresivo que ejercen en la producción y el mercado, lo cual permite la formación de los grupos económicos en un país. Dichos grupos económicos se comportan estratégicamente e influyen en el contexto económico, social y político de una nación. En la actualidad, los grupos económicos ecuatorianos conservan su carácter concentrador y contribuyen con el 60% del producto interno bruto (PIB) y representan el 41,1% del total de la recaudación tributaria (2016). El presente estudio utiliza 215 grupos económicos identificados por el Servicio de Rentas Internas (SRI) y analiza sus principales variables financieras y fiscales y su correlación durante el período 2015-2016. Los resultados demuestran la correlación lineal positiva y significativa (al nivel de 1%) entre las variables independientes (total de ingresos, total activos y total patrimonio) y la variable dependiente (recaudación total). Se concluye que la mayor correlación lineal se genera entre el total de ingresos y total recaudado. Para futuros estudios se recomienda un análisis longitudinal (ampliar el período de estudio) de los grupos económicos para cuantificar su impacto en distintas variables e indicadores económicos y financieros, a su vez, evaluar la concentración e integración de dichos grupos en el tiempo.

This article investigates the connection between performance, group, and society. The argument is that group formation around particular farm operations and the details of the activities they engage in are an expression of the preferred way of technology implementation. The argument is developed using Paul Richards' notion of agriculture as performance. Two cases are presented. The first is the composition of a spraying team for weed control in smallholder oil palm production in Sumatra, connected to a global agreement on sustainable oil palm production, known as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). The second case is about a team of women transplanting young rice seedlings on prepared paddy fields in a village in Uttarakhand, India. A new way of rice transplanting was introduced by a local non-governmental organization, known as the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). The analysis shows that group performances provide essential information about how introduced plans, regulations and material designs are reworked and turned into meaningful and effective changes to agricultural practices. The article concludes that these activities are not merely technical adjustments but in themselves express arguments about the preferred way of organising farming, farm labor, and payments. Performing groups thus exert a form of bargaining power against development actors.Keywords: Group performance, smallholder farming, technology transfer, political acts

The purpose of this study is to conserve the agricultural culture and to review the symbolic meaning and local wisdom in certain agricultural rituals. This research is conducted in Subak Kedua Pasedahan Yeh Lauh, Peguyangan Kangin Village, West Denpasar, Bali. Data is collected using the methods of interview and literature review. From the data collected, there are twenty four ritual steps found that should be performed by the farmers in Bali. Those indicate farmers' religious nature and appreciation of their cultural tradition. Each ritual from sowing to harvesting contains symbolic meanings and cultural values embraced as the guidance in farming life. From the analyses concerning its ritual and tools used, it is concluded that the symbolic meaning of ritual discourse performed by the farmers are: (1) expressing gratitude to God for all abundant harvest grace; (2) asking permission for farming to the motherland as the manifestation of God in term of the ruler of the land; (3) asking for safety for having a successful agriculture to God (Goddess Sri); (4) offerings to the rice field rulers to be kept away from pests that damage plants; (5) keeping the environmental balance –in the philosophy of Hindu society in Bali, it is one of Tri Hita Karana's best practices.

Projects that bring information and communications technology (ICT) to the developing world and especially to rural areas have the potential to empower the disenfranchised, foster economic opportunity, and narrow the digital divide that threatens to widen global disparity between the
haves and the have-nots. However, given the remarkable growth of such undertakings around the world, there has been little corresponding effort made to address the vital issues of long-term project sustainability and the diverse motivations and incentives facing the actors involved. As a result,
these projects continue to be implemented sporadically and in a piecemeal fashion, which in turn hinders our ability to define success and recommend best practices for implementing and/or scaling them. Through an analysis of publicprivate partnerships (PPPs), the prevailing vehicle for project
implementation today, the article addresses the issue of sustainability through partnerships, and also asserts that developing world technology recipients must be considered as stakeholders, as they hold the key to project sustainability. Following an overview of both theory and the current
state of ICT-related development projects, the article provides a case study of a Sri Lankan-based pilot project involving multiple stakeholders. This case reveals important success factors that can be applied to future developing world ICT projects.

Biosimilar filgrastims are primarily indicated for chemotherapy‐induced neutropenia prevention. They are less expensive formulations of branded filgrastim, and biosimilar filgrastim was the first biosimilar oncology drug administered in European Union (EU) countries, Japan, and the U.S. Fourteen biosimilar filgrastims have been marketed in EU countries, Japan, the U.S., and Canada since 2008, 2012, 2015, and 2016, respectively. We reviewed experiences and policies for biosimilar filgrastim markets in EU countries and Japan, where uptake has been rapid, and in the U.S. and Canada, where experience is rapidly emerging. U.S. regulations for designating biosimilar interchangeability are under development, and such regulations have not been developed in most other countries. Pharmaceutical substitution is allowed for new filgrastim starts in some EU countries and in Canada, but not Japan and the U.S. In EU countries, biosimilar adoption is facilitated with favorable hospital tender offers. U.S. adoption is reportedly 24%, while the second filgrastim biosimilar is priced 30% lower than branded filgrastim and 20% lower than the first biosimilar filgrastim approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Utilization is about 60% in EU countries, where biosimilar filgrastim is marketed at a 30%–40% discount. In Japan, biosimilar filgrastim utilization is 45%, primarily because of 35% discounts negotiated by Central Insurance and hospital‐only markets. Overall, biosimilar filgrastim adoption barriers are small in many EU countries and Japan and are diminishing in Canada in the U.S. Policies facilitating improved U.S. adoption of biosimilar filgrastim, based on positive experiences in EU countries and Japan, including favorable insurance coverage; larger price discount relative to reference filgrastim pricing; closing of the "rebate trap" with transparent pricing information; formal educational efforts of patients, physicians, caregivers, and providers; and allowance of pharmaceutical substitution of biosimilar versus ...
