Chanakya-The Greatest Guru Poem by Dr. Yogesh Sharma
Chanakya-The Greatest Guru
In the 370 B.C., in a;
Brahmin family was born,
The Greatest Indian Guru,
Philosopher, Royal Guide;
Kautilya or Vishnu Gupta,
Taught the best Arthasastra,
Neetishastra (known as Chanakya Niti) , and
Rajneeteshastra; at Takshashila University:
Established empires but self remained penniless.
Established Maurya emperor Chandragupta,
And mighty Maurya Empire.
But destroyed the powerful Nanda Empire
But for himself did nothing,
Believed in ‘All is Emptiness, '
'There is no Self.' And ‘Renunciation’.
In the 21st century, all wonder, how a man,
With such a mind and will power;
Could pose, smiling but tough
But only in a dhoti and without a shirt.
Originally a professor of economics and political science at the ancient Takshashila University, Chanakya managed the first Maurya Emperor Chandragupta's rise to power at a young age and established the Maurya Empire, which was the first empire in archaeologically recorded history to rule most of the Indian subcontinent. Chanakya served as the chief advisor to both Chandragupta and his son Bindusara.
Chanakya is traditionally identified as Kautilya or Vishnu Gupta, who authored the ancient Indian political treatise called Arthasastra (Economics) As such, he is considered as the pioneer of the field of economics and political science in India.
