Who runs it

Ganga Narayan Das

An engineer who spent nineteen years testing one protocol under conditions no corporate programme would be allowed to impose, and then spent the years since translating it for people who have forty-five minutes.

The short version

Trained as a Ceramic Engineer at NIT Rourkela. Systems, inputs, outputs, failure points, recalibration.

In 1996 his father died, and the system he understood stopped working. That became a research question he has not put down since.

Nineteen years as a monk followed, spent testing the Gita's protocol on himself under sustained pressure. The conclusion he came back with is an engineer's conclusion rather than a devotional one: the people who wrote these texts were systems engineers working on the most complex system available to them, and they described mechanisms that modern neuroscience is only now putting formal names to.

What exists now is the applied version. An instrument that measures state, a protocol that changes it, and a re-measure that says whether it did.

Where this has been taken seriously

  • Work delivered with KPMG, NPCIL and TIMA.
  • Presented at the United Nations Environment Assembly, UNEA 4 and UNEA 6, Nairobi.
  • The clinical and acoustic side of the protocol is documented separately at neural-acoustics.com.

The second question every CHRO asks

Is this religious?

No, and the answer needs to be more specific than that, because you are the one who will have to defend it to an employee forum.

  • Nothing is worshipped and nobody converts. There is no ritual a participant is asked to take part in, no deity invoked over them, no belief anyone is asked to hold or profess.
  • The source text is used as an engineering manual. The Gita is read for what it says about attention, attachment and the behaviour of a mind under pressure. Where it describes a mechanism, we use the mechanism and we name it in plain language.
  • The central exercise requires no belief at all. A person cleans something, or feeds someone, under three conditions. An atheist and a devout participant of any tradition go through identical work and reach the realisation by the identical route, because the route runs through their own nervous system rather than through an idea.
  • The venue is a working campus, not a service. People stay, eat and do real work there. Nobody is asked to attend anything devotional, and anyone who wishes to is free to, in their own time, as they would be anywhere.

If a participant or a works council wants this in writing before a cohort runs, ask, and you get it in writing.

What you are actually buying

Not a speaker, and not an inspiring day. A speaker is measured by the room's mood on the way out, which is why nobody can tell you what one achieved six weeks later.

An instrument, a protocol, and a second reading of the same instrument thirty days later.

That is the whole offer. It is deliberately small, it is deliberately measured, and it is the only form in which a claim about a senior layer can be made honestly.

Start with the measurement.

Take it yourself. Four minutes, and no one will call you about it.
