Speech by Venerable Uduwe Dhammaloka Thero at the Business Today TOP 40 Awards
President Ranil Wickremesinghe, Mathi, and Glenda Parthipan and guests. Joy and well-being in human life depend on the extent to which businesses succeed in generating profits. The Buddha has preached that the poorer one becomes, the more difficult it is for humans to attain Nirvana. Generating wealth and becoming wealthy are intrinsic to the path to Nirvana.
Mathi and Glenda Parthipan are a talented business couple. For three decades now, we have witnessed their business prowess and acumen. Together, from time to time, they have been adding value to their business ventures. The ultimate testament to their continuous quest to add value to their business ventures is what we witness today in this room. Rather than going on a lone journey as entrepreneurs, they have brought the business community together through the Business Today TOP 40 corporate awards.
Talent is the primary quality that every entrepreneur must possess.
They must not be lazy. They must think strategically and look for strategies for success. Entrepreneurs must be innovative—continuous success results from innovation rather than remaining comfortable doing what one already knows. Mathi and Glenda Parthipan, yours have been a discerning and thoughtful journey in business. Since you embarked on your entrepreneurial journey, we have witnessed strategic thinking that has gone in to ensure continuous progress and growth, and we are extremely happy for your success.
