of the Ethical Excellence Awards were
Ratan Tata, Chairperson of the Tata
Group, and Mr. Narayana Murthy,
Founder of Infosys, at the hands of
our then deputy Prime Minister, L.K.
Advani. We were amazed, humbled
and gratified when they accepted the
award. The term Ethical Excellence
touched their heart and I am sure
they wished to spread this message
to everyone.

What does it mean to you to help
those in need?
God has placed me in a position
where I can help those in need. As
a kid I was on the other side of the
fence. Having experienced both, I
have realised happiness does not
depend on how much money we
have. It is our attitude that makes us
happy or sad. I may be more needy
than the slum children I nurture. So
if I have helped anyone in any way, I
have been equally enriched by them.
What does the future hold for you in
business and making a difference
to society?
Our business as is promoting quality
education. Therefore on the educa-
tional front I see the Shahani Group
as a front runner in creating centres
of excellence globally where every
child has a right to holistic educa-
tion. The in house Foundation of all
our educational Institutes is SAGE
Foundation. I would like to see every
But of course, all this cannot be
achieved single handedly. We need to
reach out to each other to make this
happen. We already have commit-
ted friends all over the world start-
ing with the United Nations, Global
Dialogue Foundation, the Clinton
Global Initiative, Rock Your Life, and
many more. Our alumni have spread
all over the world and occupy high
positions. We have 50,000 students
graduating every year from colleges
of our Board. So all this is possible.
We just need a catalyst! I can see
a collective global consciousness
emerging. A huge wave is gathering,
a wave of transformation to sweep
across every level of our lives. We can
ride this wave to create a new world
order based on love, compassion and
wisdom.
The Shahani Group is aiming for
a world where there is no poverty,
injustice, environmental damage,
war and terrorism. After September
11, 2001, the only guarantee for
safety from human threat is to have
no enemies. To ensure that we are
understood, we must understand.
To understand, we must have com-
passion.When we are aligned with
our purpose, we become magnetic
to other people, and this is how
Universal Power works. When we
partner in service of the Emerging
Global Transformation, we are
serving the purpose of all humanity,
and all of the resources of the planet
become available to us.
We are all working together towards
bringing in the Golden Age.
When two or more of us align with
a shared vision that furthers the
Emerging Global Transformation, we
become a channel and a conduit for
synchronicity.
