Chanakya's Teachings - Forever True

1. A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first & honest people are victimised first.

2. Even if a snake is not poisonous, it should pretend to be venomous.

3. The biggest guru-mantra is... Never share your secrets with anybody. It will destroy you.

4. Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - a) Why am I doing it; b) What the results might be; and c) Will I be successful.
Only when you think deeply & find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead.

4. As soon as the fear approaches near, attack and destroy it.

5. Once you start working on something, don't be afraid of failure and don't abandon it. People who work sincerely are the happiest.

6. The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all directions.

7. A man is great by deeds, not by birth.

8. Treat your kid like a darling for the first five years. For the next five years, scold them. By the time they turn sixteen, treat them like a friend. Your grown up children are your best friends.

9. Books are as useful to a stupid person, as a mirror is useful to a blind person.

10. Education is the best friend. An educated person is respected everywhere. Education beats the beauty and the youth.
