    ~21:06 "Well, the reason this is, this text is viewed as the political economy, the science of political economy is that, although we read it for the chapters near the end on war and diplomacy and foreign policy, most of the text is devoted to the economic well-being of the people"

    Another text on government and war craft is the SukraNiti which is part of the Sacred Books of the Hindus series.

      Roger LaFrance Hindu isn't a religion btw, it isn't even a word to begin with. Hindu actually derived from Indus by Greeks and then British termed it as a religion Hindu. Indian culture is diverse culture. There is no central religion or something that governed it. It's hard to explain lmao. But yeah it isn't a religion

      Amith Magajikondi agreed, but today religion is seen as dogmatic thing, but in vedas there are many lines saying that there is one truth but there are various ways to achieve that truth.
      So yeah.

      Point to note however, philosophy in India was well developed back then. Debates were most prized events.

      Shankar McBharat - Of course you know it all - Kautilya was not Indian but some alien who dropped on Earth through a UFO, and by your logic this professor is lying when he says Arthashastra is Indian statecraft *eye-roll*

    I consider one of the great contribution that I have made to the humanity (archaeology in particular) is my discovery of the Asokian Four Directed Lions symbol may be referring to the original home of the Moryan kings as Chandra Gupta (Ashoka's grand father and founder of the Moryan empire) is from a place called Tak-Ka-Shi-La (which in Tibetan language means "Four Directed Lion's Pass") in present day Afganistan-Pakistan Border area.......... so I discovered that Ashoka could be of Tibetan ethnicity...... It would be hard to believe that Chadra Gupta came from a place called, in Tibetan sounds like, four directed lions pass ("Tak kah si la") and his grandson choosing four directed lions as his signature (or amblem) could be coincidental....... I think Ashoka chose the four directed lions as his emblem to indicate the name of his lineage's original home land (since its in Tibetan, he must know Tibetan to interpret it correctly....)
