introduction

Born in 4th

Century B.C. in India, Chanakya was also known as Vishnugupta andKautilya.

Chanakya was responsible for bringing down the Nanda dynasty andestablishing his able student Chandragupta Maurya on the throne as theEmperor. Hence he is called as the Kingmaker.

Chanakya had also played the role of a strategic leader to ensure defeat ofAlexander when the latter had attacked India.

Chanakya has shared his knowledge and philosophies through his huge

literatures which mainly include the books popularly known as ChanakyaNiti and Kautilyas Arthashastra.

As a political thinker, he was the first to visualize the concept of a Nation forthe first time in human history.

Some of chanakyaS SutraS Before you start some work, always ask yourself 3 questions : why I am

doing it, what might be the results, and will I be successful. Only when youthink deeply, and find satisfactory answers to these questions go ahead.

Once you start a work on something dont be afraid of failure and dontabandon it. Keep working sincerely.

The biggest guru mantra is : never share secrets with anybody, it willdestroy you.

If a person is an expert in a particular field, he should be employed in

doing work in that area only.

Take all decisions on the basis of acquired knowledge and past experience.

Be vigilant about your competitors efforts and progress.


8/56

Power

Intellectual power, man power, financial power, power of enthusiasm and morale.

For the king, there is danger in the interior or in the outer regions.

The king severe with rod (punishment) becomes a terror. A king with a mild rod isdespised. The king just with the rod is honoured.

Control over the senses, which are motivated by training in the sciences, should besecured by giving up lust, anger, greed, pride, arrogance and overexcitement.

When all laws are perishing, the king here is the promulgator of laws, by virtue of hisguarding the right conduct of the world.

The king should cause the treasury and the army to be collected in one place in thefortified city, in charge of trustworthy men.

If the king is energetic, his subjects will be equally energetic. If he is slack, his subjectswill also be lazy, thereby eating into his wealth.


9/56

continued If the leader communicates a secret to as many persons; to so many does he

become subservient, being helpless by that act.

The king, the minister, the country, the fortified city, the treasury, the army,and the ally are the constituent elements of the state Seven Pillars ofBusiness.

Success is threefold- that attainable by the power of counsel is success bycounsel, that attainable by power of might is success of might, that attainableby power of energy is success by energy.

Every king is given a code of conduct and duties and responsibilities that haveto be borne. If he follows this code, he becomes a good leader and not fearhell.

In case of inherited territory the king should cover up the fathers defects anddisplay his virtues.

In the happiness of his subjects, lies the benefit of the king, and in what isbeneficial for his subjects, is his own benefit.


10/56

Qualities of a leader

The leader should constantly hold an inspection of their works, men beinginconstant in their minds.

Wealth will slip away from the foolish person, who continuously consults the

stars. Capable men will certainly secure wealth at least after a hundred trials.

Because of the simultaneity of undertakings, their manifoldness and being

carried over at different places, the leader should cause them to be carried by

ministers, unperceived, so that there is no loss of place and time.

The leader should allow unrestricted entrance to those wishing to see him inconnection with their affairs.

Philosophy is ever thought of as the lamp of all sciences, as the means of all

actions and as the support of all laws and duties.


11/56

continued.

Having found a matter for consideration, the leader should not allow timeto pass.

Just as an elephant, blinded by intoxication and mounted by an intoxicateddriver, crushes whatever it finds, so the king not possessed of the eye of

science, and blind has risen to destroy the citizens and the country people.

He should hear every urgent matter, not put it off. An affair postponedbecomes difficult to settle or even impossible to settle.

Carrying out his own duty, the king, who protects the subjects accordingto law, leads to heaven; one who does not protect or inflicts an unjustpunishment, his condition would be reverse of this.

Bravery, resentment, quickness and dexterity these are the qualities of

energy.


12/56

continued

The administrator and the magistrates should first keep in check the headsof departments and their subordinates.

Internal (hindrance) is hindrance by the chiefs, external is the hindrance

caused by enemies or forest-tribes.

The king should move away with effort from a dangerous situation, afterremoving the womenfolk.

When grown in strength, the king should bring about the liberation of thehostage.

The kingdom continues in the succession of his sons and grandsons, freefrom dangers caused by men.


13/56

competition

After ascertaining the relative strength or weakness of powers, place,

time, revolts in rear, losses, expenses, gains and troubles, of himself and of

the enemy, the conqueror should march ahead.

The king brings under his sway his own party as well as the party of the

enemies, by the (use of the) treasury and the army.

The enemies should not come to know of his secrets; he should, however,

find out the weakness of the enemy. He should conceal, as a tortoise does

his limbs, any limb of his own that may have become exposed.

Time comes but once to a man waiting for an opportunity; that time is

difficult for that man to get again when he wants to do his work.


14/56

continued.

In a work that can be achieved with the help of an associate, he should

resort to a dual policy.

Others should not know about any work sought to be done by him. Only

those who undertake it should know (about it) when it is begun, or even

when it is actually completed.

He should seek shelter with one whose strength is superior to the strength

of the enemy.

In war there are losses, expenses, marches away from home and

hindrances.


15/56

continued.

In case of secret associations, those concluded in secret shall succeed

Key to Success.

If near him (enemy), he should strike in his weak point.

He should win over those of them who are friendly with conciliation andgifts, those hostile through dissensions and force.

He should enter the enemys residence with permission.

Strife among subjects can be averted by winning over the leaders among

the subjects, or by removal of the cause of strife.

If there is equal advancement in peace or war, he should resort to peace.


16/56

continued.

Knowledge and information, technology, people and inspiration are theweapons that leaders of an organization should have before they step intoa battle.

An equal should over reach or help an equal. This concept of equal is thatof Mitra i.e. a friend.

In the absence of help-mates, he should find shelter in a fort where theenemy even with a large army, would not cut off his food, fodder, fuel andwater, and would himself meet with losses and expenses.

The conqueror, desirous of capturing the enemys fortified town, shouldfill his own side with enthusiasm.


17/56

continued.

Acquisition is of 3 kinds new, formerly possessed, and inherited.

As between a small proximate land and a big land that is distant, the small

proximate land is preferable. For it is easy to obtain, to protect and to get

rescue (oneself). The distant one is the opposite of this.

When the gain is equal there should be peace, but when unequal war is

considered desirable.

To tackle terrorism a strong policy should be made, studies should be

done, an action plan should be prepared from the studies and then those

plans must be executed. More senior judges should come together as they

will offer different viewpoints and perspectives.
