Abstract:
The popularity of concept of spirituality is increasing exponentially in the field of human resource management. Both academicians and practitioners are looking at spirituality to solve modern day human resource challenges. Spirituality at work is about search for meaning or higher purpose, connectedness and transcendence. The present research article addresses conceptual and empirical gap using the concept of workplace spirituality and empirically examines relationship between workplace spirituality and employee commitment, job satisfaction and work–life balance satisfaction. The article successfully augments literature by suggesting one more dimension (Karma Capital) of Indian spiritual values. This is one of the pioneer studies that used necessary condition analysis (NCA) to explore workplace spirituality. Workplace spirituality was reported as a necessary determinant of employee commitment, job satisfaction and work–life balance satisfaction. Relationship between these variables is further investigated through correlation matrix and regression analysis.

Abstract:
Two equations are presented in this article to communicate a particular understanding of karma. The first equation relates future experiences to past and present actions. Although the equation uses variables and mathematical symbols such as the integral sign and summation symbol, it reads more like a literal translation of an English sentence. Based on the key idea in the first equation, a second equation is then created to highlight the viability of using math to communicate concepts that are not readily quantifiable. Analyzing such equations can stimulate thinking, enhance understanding of spiritual concepts, raise issues, and uncover tensions between our ordinary conceptions of external reality and transcendental aspects of spirituality.

Abstract:
Abstract The article presents research on contemporary religiosities related to individuality and subcultural features, influenced by the processes of social change and religious diversification in the post-communist region. Its aim is to discuss individual and communal thinking (orientated to esotericism, magic, and ecology) typical for representatives of two nature-based spirituality movements—Vissarionites and Anastasians, which is expressed through concepts of New Age spirituality of Oriental origin. The concepts of energy, non-violence, vegetarianism, karma, and reincarnation are used in both movements and appear as an example of how such concepts arrived through Western cultural influences, transformed, and took root in the post-communist cultural context of New Age spirituality. The findings are based on data obtained from fieldwork in 2004–2015, including participant observation and interviews with respondents in the Baltic states and Russia.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to seek to propose that spiritual traditions of India have enormous wisdom to provide a wholesome spiritual foundation to the modern day management. It can also play a significant role in facilitating the dimensions of workplace spirituality as conceptualized by the western counterparts. The paper does not intend to reinvent the wheel but to present an integrated framework for facilitating workplace spirituality that incorporates the western and the Indian views. Design/methodology/approach – For this study, the authors maintained an open approach. The authors first reviewed the extant literature on workplace spirituality to explore its dimensions. Thereafter, the authors searched for Indian spiritual traditions that can be suggested to have some similarity with the dimensions of workplace spirituality and can further help in facilitating those dimensions at the workplace. Findings – The paper presents an integrated framework that suggests that doctrine of Karma Yoga, tradition of Loksangrah, Guna theory, daivi sampat and Pancha Kosha model can help in facilitating the five dimensions of workplace spirituality specified in the study. Research limitations/implications – The study proposes five dimensions of workplace spirituality which is not an exhaustive list. These dimensions may be facilitated by a variety of Indian spiritual traditions but this study includes only five specific Indian traditions. Originality/value – The authors have creatively integrated the eastern and the western knowledge to come up with a framework that enriches the concept of workplace spirituality facilitation.

Abstract:
Building on the Indian Psychological literature, this article presents a methodology of how to construct models from scriptures. Four approaches to model building are proposed by presenting examples. First, models exist in the scriptures, and they need to be discovered and polished to fit with the relevant literature. Second, a content analysis of the text(s) by using keywords can lead to the development of models about constructs, such as peace, spirituality, karma, dharma, identity, etc. Third, by recognising what works in the indigenous cultures, and tracing the idea to traditional wisdom and scriptures, practical and useful theories and models can be developed. Fourth, by questioning Western concepts and models in the light of indigenous wisdom, knowledge, insights and facts, one can develop indigenous models. These approaches steer away from the pseudo-etic approach, and allow theory building that is grounded in cultural contexts. Implications for future research in Indian Psychology (IP) are discussed. It is hoped that this article will stimulate the Indian psychological movement by providing a template to bridge psychology, philosophy and spirituality.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to analyze the role of spiritual, psychological and social dimensions of business taxpayer compliance in micro small and medium enterprises. Tax compliance is an ideal condition for taxpayers who meet tax regulations and report income accurately and honestly. However, the reality in Indonesia shows the voluntary compliance level to the community is still low. This is reflected in the amount of state tax revenue compared to gross domestic product. Design/methodology/approach The location of the study was conducted on taxpayers of micro small and medium enterprises in Bali Province. The type of data used in this study is quantitative data with primary data sources in the form of questionnaires to 100 business taxpayers. Data analysis uses multiple linear regression. Findings The results showed that money ethics (as a psychological dimension) and tax socialization (as a social dimension), did not significantly influence tax compliance. Karma phala (as a spiritual dimension) has a positive and significant effect on business taxpayers’ compliance. When an individual's behavior has reflected commitment in their religion philosophy, it is expected to be a control of deviant behavior and good behavior in taxation obligations. In the future, it will be able to prevent deviations from perversion and universal undesirable. Research limitations/implications Research is only limited to entrepreneurs who are in the micro small and medium business sector, so it is still lacking in representing the public opinions, especially business people in businesses whose scope is wider. In addition, the variables used in this study are still not maximized, one can add more variables, one of which is tax modernization. Originality/value Consideration of spirituality dimension use because it is part of individual character formation in attitude and behavior. The psychological and spiritual dimensions include the human behavior theories development that integrate aspects of spirituality to shape human behavior as a whole with a comprehensive perspective, especially religious philosophy through the enforcement of karma phala laws to realize compliance and fulfillment of tax obligations with full responsibility.

Abstract:
This paper reports the results of assessment as an embedded learning opportunity through evidence from a course on Management and Spirituality for business students offered in 2002 and 2003 in the USA and Europe. It discusses how assessment can be strategically used to nudge students’ minds through learning experiences that expand current mental models of being. The construct of Karma with its emphasis on the need to sow carefully to reap a rich harvest for humanity is the context within which the assessment is designed. The paper develops three interrelated themes: the first is the theoretical background on assessment and the need to integrate it with global citizenship and bottom of the pyramid awareness; the second theme sketches the three assessment tasks; while the final theme suggests a model for assessment which amalgamates the learning community, learning environment and individual introspection to achieve karmic assessment.

Abstract:
Background:COVID-19 pandemic has afflicted cancer patients on various fronts including spiritual domain. The case series tries to highlight the spiritual beliefs and challenges faced by cancer patients and the transformation which has occurred during pandemic. Methods: Thirty consecutive cancer patients who attended outpatient clinic of cancer pain and palliative department were assessed on spiritual front through nine questions and on the basis of which their perception about spirituality, health problems, role of pandemic in transformation of spiritual beliefs and their coping mechanisms were analyzed. Results: Most respondents related spirituality to almighty. Half of the cases blamed karma, fate and God for their suffering. Signs of transformation in spiritual credence during pandemic was evident in the form that majority could not attend their places of worship, were having lack of spiritual clarity and developed feeling of fatalism. For coping with the stress and anxiety majority resorted to path of prayer and chanting at home, with few having belief in helping out others and participating in spiritual community sessions to overcome their problems in life. Conclusion: Spiritual domain of the patients is often an overlooked component by the clinicians during their examination. But maintaining a good spiritual health is as important as physical health for an overall better outcome in cancer patients and should be catered for providing a holistic care.

Abstract:
This thesis is an analytical study of the place of clairvoyance (avadhijñāna) in Jain epistemology and soteriology. It argues that avadhijñāna occupies an ambivalent position regarding both, since it is not solely attained by means of spiritual progression but may also spontaneously arise regardless of a being’s righteousness (samyaktva). Beginning with a survey of descriptions of avadhijñāna in the canons of each sect, including a translation of Nandisūtra 12-28, it examines how commentaries, philosophy and narrative literature developed and elaborated upon avadhijñāna as part of its epistemological system. Further, it examines the nexus of avadhijñāna and karma theory to understand the role of clairvoyance in the cultivation of the three jewels—correct perception, knowledge, and conduct—that lead to liberation (mokṣa). Finally, several examples of clairvoyants from Jain narratives show how clairvoyance reamined an ambivalent tool for virtuous transformation in popular literature.

Abstract:
This chapter argues against the common tropes that bemoan the commodification of spirituality as the loss of an authentic, pure religious expression or spiritual consumers as the passive victims of manipulation, deception, and coercion, as cultural dupes living in a permanent state of false consciousness. It suggests such critiques depend on the ahistorical assumption that there is an original, static tradition to be preserved, one that preexisted the profanation of religion through commodification, and consequently they produce nostalgic representations, mirroring the essentialisms of consumers themselves. Alternatively, this chapter provides an analysis of spiritual consumers, not as duped, but as choosing spiritual commodities because they privilege the culturally dominant neoliberal capitalist values and ideologies they already embrace.

Abstract:
Religious and cultural perspectives influence how patients cope with disease, view death and dying, and derive meaning and purpose in life. This chapter will familiarize palliative care providers with the various nuances of pain, suffering, and healing in Hinduism, one of the oldest and the third largest religions in the world. Hinduism can be described more as a way of life than as a single organized religion. Karma (consequences of action), dharma (righteous action), samsara (cycle of birth and rebirth), and moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth) are some of the fundamental concepts in Hinduism. Hindu traditions propagate acceptance of suffering as a consequence of karma in the current or past life. Current suffering is not random or a punishment, but a repayment of debt incurred for past negative behavior. Hindus believe that all things are manifestations of God, including pain and suffering, and are an essential part of life. Suffering is viewed as an opportunity to progress along the spiritual path. For a Hindu, dharma and moksha provide meaning and purpose in life; karma attributes a positive meaning to the suffering; pursuit of purusharthas (life goals) helps in maintaining connectedness to those around, rituals reestablish connectedness with the transcendent, while nonattachment helps in reconnecting with oneself, and the understanding of samsara promotes death acceptance. Despite being important areas of patients’ and caregivers’ lives, religion and spirituality are not often discussed in health care. This chapter attempts to acquaint health care providers with Hindu traditions and beliefs so that spiritual care harmonized to patient’s preferences can be provided.

Abstract:
The conclusion focuses on designers putting figures of the divine, especially Jesus, on dresses and other high fashion garments. It pays particular attention to the 2013 collections of Karla Špetić and Dolce & Gabbana and how putting God on a dress reinforces aestheticized ways of seeing Christianity and its heritage. The fashionable religion constructed by the fashion industry fostered the shift toward an expansive religious individualism and eclecticism, exhibited by the seekers of the 1960s, the spiritually minded of the 1990s, and the nones of the 2010s.

Abstract:
Akhir-akhir ini fenomena mistik ramai diperbincangkan di ruang publik. Apalagi setelah beberapastasiun TV swasta membuat program dengan tema mistik.Sebagai sebuah kenyataan, hal-hal mistik ini memiliki korelasi dengan spiritualitas (Islam).Fenomena mistikyang ada di TV semisal “Karma” dan “Sirqol” atau Siraman Qolbu, akhir-akhir ini menjadi sangat fenomenal. Fakta ini seperti sedang menegaskan bahwa Islam tidak bisa berhenti pada hal yang bersifatritualistik atau hanya fisik, namun ada aspek lain. Salah satunya adalah aspek mistik saja. Bagaimanakah mistik (baca: klenik) ini disikapi oleh kelompok-kelompok Islam? Khususnya bagaimana NU dan Muhammadiyah mensikapi fenomena ini. NU cenderung berakulturasi, sementara Muhammadiyah menolak. Penolakan Muhammadiyah tidak serta merta menghilangkan tradisi mistik. Alih-alih budaya mistik itu hilang, realitasnya, kini makin berkembang. Kesimpulan dapat ditarik bahwa Agama (baca: Islam) bukan hanya harus rasional, namun juga Agama (baca: Islam) punya argumentasi atau jawaban atas masalah mistis. Metode penelitian ini adalah Metode Sejarah yang meliputi. Heuristik berupapengumpulan fakta-fakta yang ada, verifikasi dilakukan dengan melakukan kritik sumber, interpretasi yaitu menafsirkan dan melakukan analisis terhadap fakta-fakta tersebut. Dan tahap akhir penelitian ini adalah historiografi yaitu menuliskan hasil interpretasi dari tahap-tahap yang dilakukan sebelumnya.
