  9. How to recognize a leader? • In his presence, others feel an urge to follow him. • Ready to accomplish some goal under his directions. • A leader stimulates, motivates and inspires to follow. • He does ordinary things extra-ordinarily. • He is part of the group he leads and does not remote-control. • He finds ideas by discussing with his group (c) Chinmaya Mission

  10. Noble Intention • Action creates external result of success; intention creates internal result of peace. • Action without noble intention does not lead to spiritual growth. Intentions are shaped by values. • 20 noble Values: Absence of Pride Absence of Pretension Non-violence Forgiveness Straightforwardness Service to Seniors Purity of motive Sustained interest Self-control Detachment Absence of Arrogance Mature vision of life Non-Possessiveness Emotional balance Not being greedy Love for God Meditation Not being extrovert Seeking true knowledge Steadfast in wisdom (c) Chinmaya Mission
