India is renowned across the globe for its richheritage, culture and spirituality. But how far has the countrybeen able to make productive and beneficial use of its richness, isstill a very questionable subject. Since ages, India has been aleader in spirituality;it was a practice and perception that mostlythe elderly people of society follow the spiritual path because theworking population can’t spare time from their busy andproductive schedule. Attention was never given to the fact thatspirituality, if rightfully practiced, can increase the productivityof an individual as well as organization many folds. With specialemphasis on the Spiritual faith of Indian masses,this studyisprecisely aimed at addressing the reasons and outcomes ofspirituality at workplace and the ways and methods ofimplementing Workplace spirituality in the organizationalenvironment. This concept oriented paper is to provide for a deepunderstanding as to why and how the individuals at work mustpractice and preach their spiritual values at work, leading toremarkable results in improvingthe overall productivity of theworkforce and the organization alike. It also extends an aid forthe economic issues like Brain Drain, Low GDP and increasedemployee turnover as an inevitable outcome of the lack ofmanagement attention towards employee wellness and theirspiritual growth at work. The study helps to embrace the essenceof a splendid professional life for all working individuals in thelight of Workplace Spirituality, promoting peace, happiness andhealth in the working atmosphere within an organization, whichin turn leads to greater job-satisfaction along with a better senseof job-fulfillment.
