என்ன சொல்லிவிட்டுப்போனார் சாணக்கியர்?

2,300 ஆண்டுகளுக்கு முன்பு வாழ்ந்தவர் சாணக்கியர்.இந்திய வரலாற்றில்
அவருக்கு ஒரு முக்கியமான இடம் எப்போதும் உண்டு.

அவர் அசத்தலாகச் சொன்னது:

“மிகவும் நேர்மையாக இருக்காதே. நேராக வளர்ந்த மரங்களுக்குச் சமம் அது. நேராக வளர்ந்த நெடிய மரங்கள்தான் முதலில் வெட்டுக்கு இறையாகும். நேர்மையாளர்களும் அப்படித்தான் வெட்டப்படுவார்கள்”

கலியுகத்திற்கு இது பொருத்தமாக உள்ளது.

"A person should not be too honest.
Straight trees are cut first
And Honest people are screwed first."


"Even if a snake is not poisonous,
It should pretend to be venomous."


"The biggest guru-mantra is: Never share your secrets with anybody.
If you cannot keep secret with you , do not expect that other will keep it!
It will destroy you."


"There is some self-interest behind every friendship.
There is no Friendship without self-interests.
This is a bitter truth."


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


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


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


"The fragrance of flowers spreads
Only in the direction of the wind.
But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction."


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


"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."


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