CHANAKAY UPDESH

A man learns everything after birth. He takes up the good and bad habits from the environment he is brought up in.

Every human being has some habits that he cannot change. According to acharya Chanakya every man has four habits that no one can teach him or change in him. 

He said, generosity, pleasing address, courage and propriety of conduct are not acquired, but are inbred qualities.

He said that nobody can make a person more generous or less generous. Similarly, a person who uses bitter tone since birth cannot change his habit ever.....

                                                                                                                    

   

   Defining a wise man Chanakya said:

A wise man should not reveal his loss of wealth, the vexation of his mind, the misconduct of his own wife, base words spoken by others, and disgrace that has befallen him.

According to him, a wise man keeps his weakness secret. People who reveals his weakness is sure to land in trouble in future.

Anything that upsets us or inflicts agony should never be told to anyone.

Similarly, a person should never tell anyone about his financial status or his wife's misconduct.

Chanakya says a person should never tell anyone if a person of a low rank insults him......     

     A wife and girl friend hold an important position in a man's life. When a man falls in love with a woman he cannot even think about a life without her and if they get separated he becomes hopeless in life.

According to Acharya Chanakya, a good man burns without fire in six conditions.

He said, separation from the wife, disgrace from one’s own people, and an enemy saved in battle, service to a wicked king, poverty, and a mismanaged assembly is the six kinds of evils, if afflicting a person, burn him even without fire.

Chanakya said that if a good man is caught in war by his enemy he feels disgraced and insulted throughout his life.

Similarly, if a man is insulted by his own people he gets hurt and suffers.

Also if a good man serves a wicked king he suffers throughout his life..... 

A man is born alone and dies alone; and he experiences the good and bad consequences of his karma alone; and he goes alone to hell or the Supreme abode. -Chanakya  

Every person born on this earth has to die one day. According to Chanakya, a man is great by deeds, not by birth.

He says, as long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is imminent what can you do?

In order to keep the soul healthy one should indulge in good deeds and one should not trouble others. He says, once a person losses his health he cannot do anything and after death only a person's deeds are remembered. 

Hence, once should always do good deeds and serve other people.
