“…This is a remarkable departure from the tradition, which was un-anthropocentric, but in keeping with the European tradition, especially at this juncture (De Smet, 1968). Second of all, he attempts to argue that moral concern arises from our substantial unitywe care for others because we appreciate that, at base, we are identical (Radhakrishnan, 1914). This idea finds no support in 32 Idealism and Indian philosophy historical Advaitins like Ādi Śaṅkara, who argued that ethical concerns that regulate desiring or selfish behavior supervene on ignorance and that the liberated person moves away from moral questions (a position we find in the Sāṅkhya Kārikā too).…”

Introduction: This article deals with the study of ethical challenges and dilemmas that have caught the attention of academicians and researchers globally as a result of the unethical acts of many renowned businesses around the world. Ethics is a highly researched but little understood concept. Globalization has only added to this complexity. This research is an attempt to scrutinize the concept of ethics in business context, understand the varying layer, shades and dilemmas of ethics over space and time : a concept that is applicable globally, but varies locally. The aim of the investigation is to assess why despite such emphasis on ethical standards in business, unethical behavior is rampant.Materials and methods: In the course of research, the authors track the evolution of the philosophy and concept of Ethics in various religions like Hinduism, Buddhism and the western world- up to the present times as we understand, practice and teach it today in business context. Results of the study: The study finds that the reason for the current ethical challenge lies in the myopic view towards the concept of business and its goals as well as in the emphasis on understanding ethics as an externally taught or externally imposed behaviour instead of an internally inculcated character. Discussion and Conclusion: For ethical business to be effective, the study concludes that it needs to become an innate part of the character of a person and organizations which through a supportive and nurturing environment, including the leadership, can internalize it in all aspects of life. Superficial attempts to showcase ethical conduct or enforce it through materialistic incentives will have only shallow and cosmetic results. Any ethical construct or system can not exist and persist in piecemeal and isolation. It needs to be all pervasive and inherent.
