Chanakya Neeti
Before
we start about the Chanakya Neeti,
Let's talk about the chanakya. who is
chanakya??.
The
Chanakya is the man who played key role in establishment of Maurya dynasty
which was one the biggest and wealthy not only economically but all aspects of
kingdom on this planet.at that time around 200 B.C. ancient India's
contribution was 23% (said by many economic expert) in world GDP which is
approx, but it's near by 23% to 25%. which was India's golden era. and
geometrically area of 420000 sq. km. which one of the largest empire on earth
after Roman Empire. but if you consider GDP wise Maurya Dynasty was world's
biggest and Wealthiest. so this is quick review about the maurya dynasty.
so you can get hint about the acharya chanakya.
The emperor of the maurya dynasty was Chandragupta Maurya. who
was the disciple of the chanakya. Chanakya was the Acharya (Acharya is Sanskrit
word which means teacher) at Takshshila university and during emperor
Chandragupta he was the prime minister (head of all ministers was called
Mahamatya / sometimes it's called Mahamantri ) and main adviser of the king. he
also develop the system of law and order in Maurya Dynasty…..
So let’s talk about the lessons from one of
the great scholar of India. Here are some of the important lessons:-
1) Good education, art or
virtue can also learn from lower class person. There is nothing wrong about to
learn from them.
2)
If
you decided to do any work then protect it with secrecy. Don’t tell anybody
about it and start doing it. And don’t announce before it done.
3) Life’s every moment, hour
and day is important. So, man must use it purposefully.
4) As intelligent and
well-bred gentlemen do not abandon anyone in adverse and difficult
circumstances, kings and scholars are always eager to shelter them. Such
cultured and wise persons have the capability to face adverse circumstances
with courage.
5) Chanakya also says that
nothing is more important than you. So, if you need to sacrifice the whole
world for your progress and protection, then do so without any hesitation.
6) Chanakya believes that
endurance is an essential quality in an intelligent person.
7) A man should imbibe the two
qualities of patience and contentment. These will ensure that he is at peace
with himself and is satisfied.
8) Chanakya also advises man
to stay ahead in donating, praying and learning.
9) Chanakya wishes to clarify
that a man cannot get success in any task, if he does not have full faith in
it. In other words, only that task is successful, which is done with mental
dedication and sacrifice.
10) It is not possible to know
any living beings limit. In times of crisis, a man can cross any limits.
Chanakya promotes education and knowledge. He
says that a person who does not have the ability to think/understand. Who is
not eager to learn, cannot be taught inspite of best efforts. Any preaching to
such persons is a waste. For that, a man should be curious.
