Approach the world from a completely new context : Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
U S has been continuously fighting wars with someone or other.
As a business man, US president could be either a great opportunity or disaster.
A good businessman makes deals that are sustainable and which bring benefit to both parties.
In the last 200 years from the dogmatic shackles of religious leadership we moved to the tyranny of military leaderships, then to the confoundedness of democratic leadership. In the next 15-20years, business leadership is going to be most prominent, globally.
Trump has the power as a leader to turn this around, because he has turned the political situation in America upside down. He must also use this to steer world towards peace. Hence he needs right guidance as well.
He wants to be friends with Russia; may be this will end the longstanding cold war.
I’ll advise Trump to approach the world from a completely new context - not to look at people as my friends or my enemies but as what is good for you and me – what way can America contribute to other people and what can other people contribute to America ? People changed: transactions have changed.
Triumphs presidency, is a new business opportunity, not for himself but for the people of America and others, worldwide.
Trump has said he will build walls to keep out people!.
If you want to run a nation, you do need to have borders. It is tough to deal with millions of unaccounted people in any country.
BY destroying the Berlin wall, two nations became one. Will that happen with Mexico, US, and Canada ? When there is huge economic disparity, people will flow. You can aspire for the ‘ no nationhood’ ideal only when human consciousness rises. Till that happens, borderless living is a dream.
It is not about branding immigrants as rapists or criminals but you do need regulation and accountability, otherwise it is difficult to have any control.
Trump has to succeed as leader of the most powerful nation, he should be aware that with great power comes great responsibility. The world has certain expectations of a US president to serve the whole world. Right now the language out there is ‘America First’ – but in terms of business, not in military terms. In business both parties will have their own leverage. But in military, if you are powerful, die. In Trumps cabinet, there are several businessmen so we can hope for good deals. We are used to politicians used slick language but Trump talks straight; what you see what you get.
I would say now you should talk less, listen and do more. Then a lot of things will change.
As a leader you need spirituality to gain inner experience. If you make 25 people with spiritual insight as heads of 25 nations, they will change the world. Give me 25 top leaders for five days and see what happens!.
