Chanakya Sutras - Pearls of Wisdom

Na Dev Pramananaam Karya Siddhi :

"My destiny is not right, I will not achieve success in this " - Those who keep such a preset prejudiced thinking in their minds before initiating action, will actually never receive success in their undertakings. Those who rely on their destinies alone and not on their hard work, the positive results of their endevaours will be very weak.

Daavheenam Karya Susadhyamapi Du:Sadhyam Bhavati

When ones Destiny is not favourable , an objective which can be accomplished easily also takes lot of difficulties to be undertaken. But seeing those difficulties, badhas, and hurdles, Purusharthi (Real Men) will yet not leave those tasks but continue to its finish.

Here a point to be noted is that Acharya Chanakya has used the word - "Du:Sadhya" and not "Asadhya", meaning that the work undertaking of which produces difficulties in its process of achievement - may be delayed, or efforts may be thwarted , but "Parishram" that is "efforts" if are put up by the Real man, the fruits he will certainly bear of the same.

Dear Bhaskar ji, Beautiful! Also let us not forget the Vishnu Gupta (Chanakaya) was the man who wrote the astrological text "Vishnu Gupta Hora", a text unavailable now, but many quotes from which are still available. Proving his strong mastery over astrology in Chanakya Sutra he also quotes - "Upastita Vinasani Prakrityakarena karyena drisyate" meaning, the impending dangers would be indicated by nature through omens. (and any one who is well versed in observing omens and nature can plan avoid them to an extend)Love and regards,Sreenadh , "Bhaskar" <bhaskar_jyotish wrote:>> Na Dev Pramananaam Karya Siddhi : "My destiny is not right, I will> not achieve success in this " - Those who keep such a preset prejudiced> thinking in their minds before initiating action, will actually never> receive success in their undertakings.
