Q1 What is stress management? How can it be reduced?

Stress management starts with identifying the sources of stress in your life. This isn’t as easy as it sounds. Your true
sources of stress aren’t always obvious, and it’s all too easy to overlook your own stress-inducing thoughts, feelings,
and behaviors. Sure, you may know that you’re constantly worried about work deadlines. But maybe it’s your
procrastination, rather than the actual job demands, that leads to deadline stress.
There are the following ways through we can reduce the Stress.
Avoid unnecessary stress

Not all stress can be avoided, and it’s not healthy to avoid a situation that needs to be addressed. You may be
surprised, however, by the number of stressors in your life that you can eliminate.
Alter the situation

If you can’t avoid a stressful situation, try to alter it. Figure out what you can do to change things so the problem
doesn’t present itself in the future. Often, this involves changing the way you communicate and operate in your daily
life.
Adapt to the stressor

If you can’t change the stressor, change yourself. You can adapt to stressful situations and regain your sense of
control by changing your expectations and attitude.
Accept the things you can’t change

Some sources of stress are unavoidable. You can’t prevent or change stressors such as the death of a loved one, a
serious illness, or a national recession. In such cases, the best way to cope with stress is to accept things as they
are. Acceptance may be difficult, but in the long run, it’s easier than railing against a situation you can’t change.
Make time for fun and relaxation

Beyond a take-charge approach and a positive attitude, you can reduce stress in your life by nurturing yourself. If you
regularly make time for fun and relaxation, you’ll be in a better place to handle life’s stressors when they inevitably
come.
Adopt a healthy lifestyle

You can increase your resistance to stress by strengthening your physical health. Exercise regularly. Physical activity
plays a key role in reducing and preventing the effects of stress. Make time for at least 30 minutes of exercise, three
times per week. Nothing beats aerobic exercise for releasing pent-up stress and tension.
Q2 What are the two types of leadership approaches?
Transformational Leadership
These highly influential leaders serve as role models to inspire others. Defined by leadership studies scholars Bruce
Avolio and Bernard Bass, this leadership style involves improving the morale and job performance of team members
by connecting with their sense of identity and the collective identity of the organization. A transformative leader is a
visionary who inspires others and encourages critical thinking and innovation. Examples of transformational leaders
include politicians like Winston Churchill and business visionaries like Steve Jobs.
Participatory Leadership
Leaders who employ this hands-on style seek to bring a more democratic dimension to management instead of
utilizing a traditional top-down approach. This leadership style recognizes that employees are stakeholders in the
organization and are entitled to their own voice. Participatory leaders empower employees who will be most affected
by certain decisions to have participation and/or decision-making capabilities in addressing those issues.
Q3 Explain in detail the Gurukul system of education.
The Gurukul was a type of school in ancient education system. The gurukul system is an ancient learning method.
Gurukulam has existed since the vedic age. Their main motto is to develop the knowledge and they were highly
focused on education. The Gurus train their students with meditations, yogas and other standards.
The students will gather there and learn vedas from their Guru. The students were treated equally irrespective of
their social standards. The students were treated as a part of Guru families. The GuruÂ refers to the master or a
teacher. The gurukulam system gained a new tradition known as Guru-shishya tradition. The teacher is called as a
Guru and the students are called as Shisyas.
The main objectives of the gurukul system are

 Self control
 Character development
 Social awareness
 Personality development
 Intellectual development
 Spiritual development
 Preservation of knowledge & culture
Students were divided into three categories like
(a) Vasu- Those obtaining education up to the age of 24.
(b) Rudra- Those obtaining education up to the age of 36.
(c) Aaditya- Those obtaining education up to the age of 48.
Q4 What are the different laws of Karma?
The Great Law or The Law of Cause & Effect

As you sow, so shall you reap.
To receive happiness, peace, love, and friendship, one must BE happy, peaceful, loving, and a true friend.
Whatever one puts out into the Universe will come back to them.
The Law of Creation

Life requires our participation to happen. It does not happen by itself.
We are one with the Universe, both inside and out.
Whatever surrounds us gives us clues to our inner state.
Surround yourself with what you want to have in your life and be yourself.
The Law of Humility

One must accept something in order to change it. If all one sees is an enemy or a negative character trait, then they
are not and cannot be focused on a higher level of existence.
The Law of Growth

Wherever you go, there you are. It is we who must change and not the people, places or things around us if we want
to grow spiritually.
All we are given is ourselves. That is the only thing we have control over.
When we change who and what we are within our hearts, our lives follow suit and change too.
The Law of Responsibility
If there is something wrong in one’s life, there is something wrong in them.
We mirror what surrounds us, and what surrounds us mirrors us; this is a Universal Truth. One must take
responsibility for what is in one’s life.
The Law of Connection

The smallest or seemingly least important of things must be done because everything in the Universe is connected.
Each step leads to the next step, and so forth and so on. Someone must do the initial work to get a job done. Neither
the first step nor the last are of greater significance. They are both needed to accomplish the task. Past, Present, and
Future are all connected.
The Law of Focus

One cannot think of two things at the same time. If our focus is on Spiritual Values, it is not possible for us to have
lower thoughts like greed or anger.
The Law of Giving & Hospitality

If one believes something to be true, then sometime in their life they will be called upon to demonstrate that truth.
Here is where one puts what they CLAIM to have learned into PRACTICE.
The Law of Here & Now

One cannot be in the here and now if they are looking backward to examine what was or forward to worry about the
future. Old thoughts, old patterns of behavior, and old dreams prevent us from having new ones.
The Law of Change

History repeats itself until we learn the lessons that we need to change our path.
