Chanakya Neeti: Verses of Wisdom

By Rupa Publications

Chanakya Neeti is a compilation of the core beliefs and teachings of Kautilya (also known as Chanakya), the legendary Indian theorist, teacher, philosopher, economist and renowned mentor to Chandragupta between 350-275 BC.

As a foundational figure in the creation of the Mauryan Empire, Chanakya is regarded as a pioneer in both economics and political science in India. His insights are considered early precursors to classical economic thought and remain deeply relevant even today.

This text presents his key ideas in the original Sanskrit, accompanied by transliteration and English translation for better understanding and accessibility.

A treatise on the archetypal Indian way of life, Chanakya Neeti also includes his famous Sutras (aphorisms), which outline essential principles for personal development, leadership, and governance. These teachings were instrumental in shaping not only Chandragupta but also other disciples in the art of effective rule and wise living.
