Decision analysis: How it relates to the Gita

Author: Anil Kumar / Labels: , ,



In decision analysis, we value several factors to make an objective decision. Quite some mathematics goes inside, as does lot of logic. A good decision is one which is most likely to result in a favorable outcome.

However, in prospect, even if the decision taken results in a bad outcome, still it remains a good decision because it was calculated to yield the highest possible chance of success.

This sounds very similar to the central principle of Gita: Perform your duty well without caring about the results.
