hai friends...
yesterday
i was reading a book on Lean Manufacturing, which talks about avoiding
'seven wastes'...i.e seven defects in the conventional production
processes so that the production system is lean, efficient and economic.
First
of all, why did we make a production system with defects or
wastes?...so we design a production system with defects and invent
methods to eliminate the defects!!!...what a funny way!
this can be compared with our culture...
we
made a culture...i.e 'a way of living' (not way of 'life'!)...a
culture of perceiving issues around us...the purpose should have been to
keep us happy and healthy. If it has kept us happy and healthy, then
doctors, psychiatrists and psychologists are not required. Whereas
we find every human being moving around with 'perceived' problems
keeping him unhappy and unhealthy requiring the help of philosophical
books, philosophical people, doctors and psychologists. So, like the
'manufacturing process' example above, we have introduced defects in our
culture or way of living and produced products with defects...defective
living...defecting perceptions...and thereafter trying to remove the
defects after it has occurred and damaged the product!...the people!!
why
don't we identify the defects in our way of living?...modify and
improve it to 'way of life'...produce a new 'lean culture' in our
family, among relatives, in our small society...called 'lean life' and
ensure at least the products that we produce are without defects!
keep rocking!
