Across The Leela properties in India and at The Leela Palace Bengaluru, they have practiced the eight 'Leela Dharmas'. A doctrine of duties and simple virtues which are to be followed by each individual associate. "Derived from the deep-rooted Indian tradition of hospitality 'Atithi Devo Bhava' (Guest is God as translated from Taittiriya Upanishad), these Dharmas stand for what they firmly believe in. These are a doctrine of duties and simple virtues which are to be followed by each individual associate, principles that orient their associates and form the foundation of our code of conduct -towards each other and with their most cherished heritage, their guests," explains Madhav Sehgal, General Manager, The Leela Palace Bengaluru.
