Who will lead us to winning in this world and eternal living

A recent discussion with a good friend of mine, turned out to be about the naming of infants.  The names, at times nouns and act as an adjective sometimes.    The names Lakshmi, Lakshiputra, Kubera are synonymous with wealth.  Saraswathi, is synonymous with knowledge, Sahana is having lot of patience, Dheera means a courageous person and so on.

We often see the personality of people differs drastically from their names. Some people believe that names actually effect the future of the kids, though not sure whether it is positive or negative

The discussion sparked off with the names of our respective children. My daughter’s name is Pritha, which means daughter of the mother earth and one having lots of patience. But my little one has absolutely no indication of patience. My friend’s son is named Nakul which means to be fast, but the boy by nature  kinda lazy!

This made me curious about the names of the Pandava brothers. Five of them- Yudhishtira, Bheema, Arjuna, Nakul and Sahadeva ,each one with a special power and skill

Following is a description of their personalities from Wikipedia:

Yudhisthira's true prowess was shown in his unflinching adherence to satya (truth) and dharma (righteousness). Bheema is strong, equal to ten thousand elephants, well-trained and active. Arjuna, whose name means 'bright', has an acute sense of duty. Nakula is well known for horse caring skills, devastating handsomeness and Sahadeva having special abilities to care for cows and has high levels of  intelligence.

This consideration immediately made me think how the five Pandava brothers symbolize an organization

Pandavas are lead by Yudhishtira, adhering to Sathya and dharma. Organisations must stick to policies, made in fairness. 

Bheema’s power and speed is needed for an organization to spread its operations.

Arjuana’s sense of duty keeps the organization united and working towards achieving the same goal. 

Nakula’s ability of horse keeping, is the ability of an organization for logistics and Sahadeva’s ability of cattle rearing, symbolizes feeding the organization, in other words making resources aka employees healthy and happy.

Policies, Power, Sense of duty, careful logistic and happy soldiers are winning combination of any army including the modern army of corporate world

But we still remain with a million dollar question, who  will lead us to winning both in this world and in eternal living, as pandavas are lead by Krshna.
