Chanakya on role of Ashram in revolt against corrupt Rulers
The objection of monks taking up a role in Nation’s politics is useless. And this lecture by Chanakya brings out that clearly. Since a teacher, a Guru is also part of the society and nation, he has complete right and reason to stand up to a corrupt ruler.
This is especially significant in view of the remarks against Swami Ramdev when he started his fight against corruption!
