About The Book
It is interesting to compare'Chanakya's
approach in this regard with Clausewitz's. Both are
agreed that attention should be concentrated on one
enemy, among the many. But while Chanakya advises
stratagem and treaty with one, Clausewitz advocates
outright war: We may establish if as a principle that if
we conquer all our enemies by conquering one of
them, the defeat of that one must bs the aim of the war,
because in that one we hit the common centre of
gravity of the whole war.
Simla, 1978

01. Maxims From
Chanakyasutras
The lazy one does not get what has not been
obtained.
Donation is righteousness.
Fame is immortal.
Righteousness, overcome by
unrighteousness, destroys the ruler, if neglect is
shown.
