Myriad Thoughts

  Chanakya needs no introduction. He has been regarded as the greatest Indian philosopher, thinker, and diplomat. He was the son of Pandit Acharya Chanak, a great scholar of his time. Chanakya's real name was  Vishnugupta . Because of his “ Kautilya Niti ”, he came to be known as ‘ Kautilya’ . Born in  a  poor Brahmin family,  Chanakya  was educated at Takshashila (now in Pakistan), an ancient center of learning located in the northwestern part of India. Chanakya was in no way behind the scholars of Greece. He came to be known as the  Acharya of Nalandav Mahavidyalaya  about two thousand four hundred years ago. If you turn the pages of history, you will be surprised to read that he had described the country's system, economical strategies and the virtues of business in his  Chanakya Niti.   Chanakya expounded many ideas in various subjects like  political science, ethics, economy, statecraft, espionage, military strategies , etc. There are seventeen chapters in ‘ Chanakya Niti’
