Brief introduction of Chanakya

  Identification of Chanakya's extraordinary talent: -

      In the history of ancient Indian culture, Acharya Chanakya is known for his various virtues, his political acumen, his knowledge of manners, his mastery of diplomacy and his seniority.  Destroying the Nanda dynasty, Chandragupta Maurya, a worthy and meritorious heroic disciple, was installed on the throne and showed his extraordinary talent.  All the installations known to him are one of the great achievements of Acharya Chanakya.

       That was when Chandragupta, the first ruler of the Mauryan period, was on the Mauryan throne.  At that time Chanakya was his political guru.  Even today, the definition of "Chanakya" is given to political experts.  He dreamed of a complete Aryavarta and he tried his best to make that dream come true.

       Chanakya was such a strangely skilled politician that he overthrew the rule of the Nanda kings of Magadha and established the kingdom of Maurya.

 Chanakya's birth and lineage identity: -

       After the birth of Chanakya, his name was Vishnugupta.  And being the son of an Acharya named Chanak, his name is Chanakya.  According to some, his name was Chanakya because he was very intelligent.  He is called "Kautilya" because he is an expert in crooked politics.  Perhaps it was the name of his tribe.  But because many scholars were the makers of diplomacy, his name became Kautilya.  M.M.  Ganapathi Shastri insisted on considering it as Kautilya Gotra according to the wisdom of Poonam Kautilya.  He was the general secretary, guru, benefactor and founder of the kingdom of Chandragupta Maurya.  The task of establishing Chandragupta Maurya on the throne was the result of his intellectual strategy.

  Birthplace of Chanakya: -

        History is silent about the birthplace of Chanakya.  But he was educated at Takshila University.  He is arrogant by nature, free from character and subject matter.  Ugly in form, very sharp in intellect, firm, sure, possessing extraordinary genius, seer and epoch-maker.  From his birth, Chanakya, a resident of Pataliputra, developed the Takshila Acharyas under his tutelage.  Chanakya became a professor of politics by appeasing the local scholars under the influence of his mature knowledge.  Seeing the plight of the country, his heart melted. For this, he prepared a detailed plan and decided to unite the whole country and succeeded in this task.

 Purpose of Chanakya's life: -

        The purpose of Chanakya's life was only intellect.  Therefore, Chanakya had complete reliance on his intellect and masculinity.  He considered the decision "the whole of the divine world" to be an illusion.

      Chanakya and Chandragupta Maurya's time was the same - 325 BC.  Chanakya was a man of the time when the Mauryan emperor Chandragupta was a man.  Chanakya's hometown was a leafy hut outside the city, which prompted Fa-Hien, a historical Chinese traveller, to ask, "Does the prime minister of such a large country live in such a hut?"  In reply, Chanakya said-- "Where the Prime Minister lives in a common cottage, the people live in a beautiful building and where the Prime Minister lives in a palace, the common people live in a cottage."

      On one side of Chanakya's cottage, there was a stone to break the dung pile.  On the other hand, Kush's sattapa brought by the disciples was there.  Samidha was placed on the roof to dry, the weight of which leaned down the roof.  Such a dilapidated hut was the residence of Chanakya.

      Ah!  Why shouldn't the country be great if the Prime Minister of that country is so honest, vigilant, charismatic and dutiful?

      People were amazed to see these thoughts of Chanakya.  Our minds tremble when we see this scene of all the sensitivity of the rupee harp.  Out of all those wires came the melody of such compassion that gradually vanished into the chaos of Chanakya's entire politics.  Closing our eyes in front of Chanakya's astrological chakra, seeing the form of Chanakya and the ascetic, our head tilts downwards.

      In 2500 BC, Vishnugupta, the son of Chanakya, created explanatory sources along with books on economics, minor Chanakya, old Chanakya, Chanakya ethics, etc., to teach politics to Indian heroes.

      Chanakya policy has a very important place in the category of ethical books in Sanskrit literature.  It sheds light on many things that are useful for making life happy and successful in a formulaic style.  According to Chanakya, this is the ideal state institution whose scheme does not deprive the people of their basic right to receive their land and wealth.  The name of the long-winded scheme does not make the tenants affected by the tax burden.  The state scheme should be run by saving from royal expenses.  It is a kind of harassment of the subjects to start a long-winded scheme by leaving the subjects to the trust of the king's share.

     Chanakya's literature is a treasure trove of knowledge that teaches peace, justice, good education and all-round development in society.  It is the responsibility of political education to teach mankind the three tasks of preserving and establishing the state.

 Ignoring the knowledge of Chanakya: -

        It is unfortunate for India that we have ignored the knowledge of Chanakya and invited domestic and foreign enemies to invade our country.  And we have adopted a demonic education system in the country.  Moral education and religious education have disappeared from our country.  Character construction has been excluded.  All that remains in this country is the pen-clerk-making, indecisive, pet-raising education.  Society is slowly taking on a demonic form.  All the journeys of self-esteem are being barred.

      Only Chanakya's enlightenment has the power to become a guide in today's age of selfishness and the selfish political landscape of darkness.  That is what can lead to our political, social, and spiritual liberation.  The present state of affairs of the present age is the result of this present bad education.  State ideology, state welfare and Manu's ideology have disappeared today.  Arrogant knowledge has prestige.  The cultural aspect of the country has been destroyed.  The spirit of selfless service has gone bankrupt.  Dominant greedy leadership has been established. India can be saved by incorporating Chanakya's political thought.  By studying this, along with the development of political intelligence, there is ample potential for the proper development of virtuous, usable, pious and active human beings.  This is why this policy lesson is equally relevant today.
