ನೈತಿಕ ಕಥೆ - ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಮಾಂಸ - Moral story

 ಮಗಧ ಸಾಮ್ರಾಟ ಬಿಂದುಸಾರನು ಒಮ್ಮೆ ತನ್ನ ಆಸ್ಥಾನದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೇಳಿದನು:

ದೇಶದ ಆಹಾರ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ಪರಿಹರಿಸಲು
*ಎಲ್ಲಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಅಗ್ಗದ ವಸ್ತು ಯಾವುದು?*

ಮಂತ್ರಿಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ಇತರ ಸದಸ್ಯರು ಯೋಚನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮುಳುಗಿದರು. ಅಕ್ಕಿ, ಗೋಧಿ, ಜೋಳ, ನವಣೆ, ಸೆಜ್ಜೆ, ಮುಂತಾದವು ಬಹಳ ಪರಿಶ್ರಮದಿಂದ ಸಿಗುತ್ತವೆ, ಅದು ಕೂಡ ಪ್ರಕೃತಿ ವಿಕೋಪ ಇಲ್ಲವಾದರೆ. ಇಂತಹ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಆಹಾರ ಅಗ್ಗವಾಗಲಾರದು. 

 ಆಗ ಬೇಟೆಯ ಹುಚ್ಚು ಇರುವ ಸಾಮಂತನೊಬ್ಬ ಹೇಳಿದ:
ರಾಜಾ,
*ಎಲ್ಲಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಅಗ್ಗದ ಆಹಾರ ಮಾಂಸ!*

ಇದನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯಲು ಪರಿಶ್ರಮ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಸಾಕು ಮತ್ತು ಪೌಷ್ಟಿಕ ಆಹಾರವೂ ತಿನ್ನಲು ಸಿಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ಇದನ್ನು ಸಮರ್ಥಿಸಿದರು.

ಆದರೆ ಪ್ರಧಾನ ಮಂತ್ರಿ ಚಾಣಕ್ಯ ಸುಮ್ಮನಿದ್ದನು.

ಸಾಮ್ರಾಟನು ಅವನನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದ:
ತಾವು ಇದರ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಏನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತೀರಾ?

ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಹೇಳಿದ:  ನಾನು ನನ್ನ ವಿಚಾರವನ್ನು ನಾಳೆ ತಮ್ಮ ಮುಂದೆ ಇಡುವೆನು.

ರಾತ್ರಿಯಾದ ಮೇಲೆ ಪ್ರಧಾನ ಮಂತ್ರಿ ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಆ ಸಾಮಂತನ ಮನೆಗೆ ಹೋದ. ಸಾಮಂತ ಬಾಗಿಲು ತೆರೆದು ಇಷ್ಟು ರಾತ್ರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಪ್ರಧಾನ ಮಂತ್ರಿ ತನ್ನ ಮನೆಗೆ ಬಂದುದನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ ಗಾಬರಿಗೊಂಡನು!

ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು:
ಸಂಜೆ ಹೊತ್ತಿಗೆ ಮಹಾರಾಜರು ಒಮ್ಮೆಲೆ ಕಾಯಿಲೆ ಬಿದ್ದರು. ರಾಜವೈದ್ಯರು ಅವರ ಔಷಧಕ್ಕೆ ಯಾರಾದರೂ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಮನುಷ್ಯರ ಹೃದಯದ ಮಾಂಸ ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿದರೆ ರಾಜರ ಪ್ರಾಣ ಉಳಿಯಬಹುದೆಂದು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಹೃದಯದ 💓 ಕೇವಲ ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಮಾಂಸ ಪಡೆಯಲು ಬಂದಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಇದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಒಂದು ಲಕ್ಷ ಚಿನ್ನದ ನಾಣ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ನೀವು ಪಡೆಯಬಹುದು.

ಇದನ್ನು ಕೇಳುತ್ತಲೇ ಸಾಮಂತನ ಮುಖ ಬಿಳುಚಿಕೊಂಡಿತು! ಅವನು ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನ ಕಾಲು ಹಿಡಿದು ಕ್ಷಮೆ ಕೇಳಿದ.
*ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಬದಲಾಗಿ ಒಂದು ಲಕ್ಷ ಚಿನ್ನದ ನಾಣ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಕೊಟ್ಟು ಈ ಹಣದಿಂದ ಬೇರೆ ಯಾರಾದರೂ ಸಾಮಂತರ ಹೃದಯದ ಮಾಂಸ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಹೇಳಿದ.*

ಅದೇ ರೀತಿ ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಅವನನ್ನು ಸಮರ್ಥಿಸಿದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಸಾಮಂತರ ಮತ್ತು ಸೇನಾಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳ ಹತ್ತಿರ ಹೋಗಿ ಕೇಳಿದ.

*ಎಲ್ಲರ ಹತ್ತಿರವೂ ಅವರ ಹೃದಯದ ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಮಾಂಸ ಕೇಳಿದ. ಆದರೆ ಯಾರೂ ಕೊಡಲು ತಯಾರಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಬದಲಾಗಿ ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ತಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಪಾರು ಮಾಡಲು ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನಿಗೆ ಒಂದು ಲಕ್ಷ, ಎರಡು ಲಕ್ಷ, ಐದು ಲಕ್ಷ, ಹೀಗೆ ಚಿನ್ನದ ನಾಣ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಕೊಟ್ಟರು.*

ಈ ರೀತಿ ಸುಮಾರು ಎರಡು ಕೋಟಿ ಚಿನ್ನದ ನಾಣ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಕಲೆ ಹಾಕಿ ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಬೆಳಗಾಗುವುದರೊಳಗೆ ತನ್ನ ಮನೆಗೆ ತಲುಪಿದ. 

ಮರುದಿನ ಆಸ್ಥಾನದಲ್ಲಿ ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಸಾಮ್ರಾಟನ ಮುಂದೆ ಎರಡು ಕೋಟಿ ಚಿನ್ನದ ನಾಣ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಇಟ್ಟುಬಿಟ್ಟ.

ಸಾಮ್ರಾಟನು ಕೇಳಿದ: ಇದೆಲ್ಲಾ ಏನು?

ಚಾಣಕ್ಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು: ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಮಾಂಸ ಕೊಂಡುಕೊಳ್ಳಲು
*ಇಷ್ಟು ಹಣ ಸಂಗ್ರಹವಾಯಿತು. ಆದರೂ ಎರಡು ತೊಲೆ ಮಾಂಸ ಸಿಗಲಿಲ್ಲ!*

ರಾಜಾ, ಈಗ ನೀವೇ ಸ್ವತಃ ವಿಚಾರ ಮಾಡಿ ಮಾಂಸ ಎಷ್ಟು ಅಗ್ಗವೆಂದು!

*ಜೀವನ ಅಮೂಲ್ಯ. ಯಾವ ರೀತಿ ನಮಗೆ ನಮ್ಮ ಜೀವದ ಮೇಲೆ ಆಸೆ ಇದೆಯೋ ಅದೇ ರೀತಿ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಜೀವಿಗಳಿಗೂ ತಮ್ಮ ಜೀವದ ಮೇಲೆ ಆಸೆಯಿದೆ, ಆದರೆ ಅವು ತಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಾಣ ಉಳಿಸಲು ಅಸಮರ್ಥವಾಗಿವೆ ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು ನಾವು ಮರೆಯಬಾರದು.*

ಮತ್ತೆ ಮನುಷ್ಯ ತನ್ನ ಪ್ರಾಣ ಉಳಿಸಲು ಎಲ್ಲಾ ರೀತಿಯಿಂದ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ. ಹೇಳಿ, ಸಂತಸ ಪಡಿಸಿ, ಹೆದರಿಸಿ, ಲಂಚ ಕೊಟ್ಟು, ಇತ್ಯಾದಿ!

*ಪ್ರಾಣಿಗಳು ಪಾಪ! ಹೇಳಲಾರವು, ತಮ್ಮ ದುಃಖವನ್ನು ತಿಳಿಸಲಾರವು!*

*ಹಾಗಾದರೆ ಈ ಕಾರಣಕ್ಕೆ ನಾವು ಅವುಗಳು ಜೀವಿಸುವ ಅಧಿಕಾರವನ್ನು ಕಸಿಯಬಹುದೇ?*

*ಶುದ್ಧ ಆಹಾರ, ಸಸ್ಯಾಹಾರ!*

Chanakya Neethi - Part 5

91) The destruction of following persons is certain; who overspends due to having no foresight to budget his expenditure, who is physically weak but has tendancy to pick up quarrels and who is desirous of having affairs with all kinds of women.

92) If a man were to live life of mere three quarters of an hour , he should live it doing good turns. But , in any world ,  a life of thousands of years , spent in committing sins is worthless.

93) Let the bygones not worry you and dont fear the future.The wise ones concentrate on making good use of the present.

94) One who is infatuated with someone or something faces a threat from the same someone or something. Because it has become his weakness. It breeds a host of problems and worries. Give up infatuation if you want to be happy and in control of yourself.

95) One who prepares oneself to meet the impending danger saves himself successfully and tides over any problem. He is happy. But the one who leaves everything to fate thinking that whatever will be , will be , gets perished.

96) All the desires are impossible to fulfill. The fate can't grant all of them and the efforts fall short. The best alternative is to learn and be content with what one gets.

97) O man , if you want to win this world with just one act, then don't let your tongue speak ill of any other person .That is it.

98) A man must not become vain upon doing charity, penance , gaining knowledge , cultivating politeness and on becoming worldly wise. Because in this world , is full of gems who excel in these fields and are far more accomplished. There is always one better.

99) Do not stay too close to; the king , the fire and the women. It's dangerous. But do not stay too far off them. It will gain you no rewards. Just keep hovering around at a safe distance.

100) A real wise man is who , knows how to talk according to the situation , speaksd in a manner befiting his fame and grace and shows anger according to his power to handle the consequences.

101) A wise man must not reveal anything about ; formula of ones private medicine , one's own religious resolves, family blemish , sexual acts, bad food taken and the ill talk heard.

102) For a well-planned and organised life one must; live religiously , earn money and save, store food grains , keep life saving and first aid medicines in domestic stock and act upon the advice of the teacher.

103) A teacher who introduces his disciple to God , leaves an unpayable debt on his pupil . For , there is no enough precious thing or enough amount of money that can pay this debt.

104) There are only two ways of dealing with the evil persons or thorns; Crush them under your boot or Stay far away from them.

105) One who wears dirty clothes , keeps his teeth filthy , is glutton , speaks foul language and oversleeps, gets ignored by the prosperity, health , beauty and grace. Even God can't afford the above shortcoming.

106) If a weary , dead tired and hungry traveller stumbles in to a home, after a long journey , hoping for some food and rest, but the home owner does not care to welcome the guest and show inhospitality, sits down to take his own meal ignoring the guests, such a man certainly is a real Charlatan of meanest order.

107) Sandalwood does not stop being fragrant even if it is chopped to pieces. The bull elephant does not stop mating even in old age. The cane does not not lose sweetness even when crushed or extruded. Similarly a man of class doe not stop being a gentleman even in poverty.

108) The knowledge merely copied from books which is not properly imparted by a teacher is bastard knowledge. It is a illegitimate as a child conceived by a woman from a man other than her husband. Such knowledge is never recognized by any faculy of scholars , the same way as a bastard is not respected in the society.

109) Something which looks too far off to achieve , intangible and too high to attain , can be reached through perseverance , dogged effort, hard work and single minded devotion. Nothing is impossible. Even God is just a true penance away.

110) Those people whose hearts have warmed up to the desire of doing good for others get blessed with riches at every step and their troubles get blown away.

Chanakya Neethi - Part 4

71) If you wish for deliverence , give up bad habits and bad addictions considering them poison, Partake the nectar of forgiveness , tolerance , patience , piety and the truth.

72) The student , the servant , the traveller , the starving person and the guard be woken up if found sleeping at duty. Dont ever wake up a sleeping ; serpent, king , tiger, pig , child, other's dog and fool. Leave them asleep.

73) Offering to god a self made garland, applying sandalwood paste made by own hands and singing self-written prayer, earns one the riches of the heavens as reward from God.

74) In poverty , the patience makes the poverty bearable. Even an ordinary piece of cloth looks good if kept clean. If food is not rich and tasty, eating it fresh and hot makes it tolerable. Similarly a good character makes up for the lack of physical beauty.

75) A moneyless man is not poor if he has got the riches of learning. A man who has no learning is the poorest , even if he has money.

76) Animals are those people, who have no learning , who have never done penance, who are not charitable, who have no skill , no politeness and no mercy. They are beasts in human form.

77) It is no use to give wise advice to persons who have no capacity to receive or imbibe. The fragrant winds coming from the forest of sandalwood trees do not aromate the bamboo groves which continue to be offensive smelling.

78) The birds of several species, shapes , sizes and colors converge on a tree in the evening to spend the night. In the morning all fly away in different directions. In the same way all relatives come together in a family and then go their ways when the time comes. Why grieve for one another on seperation ?

79) A student who remains homesick learns nothing. People who eat flesh have no mercy. Persons who have greed for money are no truthful. And one who is a debauch cannot attain piety.

80) No amount of pilgrimage and temple going can redeem a person whose mind is filled with evil desires. Similarly as a wine container does not become clean even after going through the fire of furnace.

81) A true student of education must refrain from love , anger , infatuation , delicacies , preeening, the entertainment shows , oversleeping & flattery

82) The bees which collect honey with such exemplary courage and hardwork , also have to repent if they don't give away some honey because it gets destroyed. Similarly people who amass wealth and don't put the money to good use like in charity , lose it in various ways. The kings and men of riches who generosuly gave away their money earned glory and fame that still survives.

83) Drop by drop a pitcher gets filled. Similarly a little by little collection of money, learning and good acts become great treasures.

84) Blessed is a home where; the sons and daughters are obedient , the housewife is sweet toungued , the man is hard working , the money is wages of honesty , the friends are sincere, the wife is truly loved , the servants are faithful , the guests are welcome to overwhelming hospitality, God is worshipped, sweet dishes and refreshing drinks are always available and where holy teachers descend to provide enlightening discourses.

85) This world is kept going by the goodness of people who are polite and gentle to their near and dear ones, who deal wil compassion to the deserving , show no mercy to bad people , who are respectful to the scholars , who bravely face the powerful , who display reverence to gurus , parents and spiritual teachers and who tackle women using cleverness instead of foolishly putting complete trust in them.

86) You whose hands are unaccustomed to charity, whose ears never pay heed to the sermons of the holy scriptures, whose eyes never focus on saints, whose legs have not led the way to any pilgrimage centre , who has not looked after his parents or teachers, who has lived on the money earned through unjust means ; O such man of over blown ego ! You jackal like character ! You are the lowliest of the low! You are condemnable. Leave that life of shame and spare this world! You are better dead than living !!

87) A saint once said about his family - Truth is my mother, Knowledge is my sire, Religion is my brother , Mercy is my sister, Peace is my wife and Tolerance is my son.

88) This body does not last forever, the wealth does not stay at one place, the death is always hovering around. So everyone must live religiously and engaged in good deeds.

89) A person who sees mother in the woman of another man, who values the wealth of others as nothing more than rubbish and who sees his own soul in all other creatures is really the one who has found the truth.

90) Only the noble souls reveal the qualities of ; ever being religious , speaking polite words , keenness for charity , complete faith in a sincere friend, humility towards the guru , serene nature , pious behaviour , being receptive to the good advices, having the knowledge of scriptures and faith in Creator.
