आचार्य चाणक्य ने जो नीतियां बताई है अगर इंसान उसका सही ढ़ग से पालन करे तो कल्याण ही होता। आज के युग में हर इंसान की चाहत ज्यादा से ज्यादा पैसे कमाने और सुख भोगने की होती है। किसी को अकूत संपत्ति की चाहत होती है तो किसी को मान-सम्मान की, वहीं कोई भागदौड़ की जिंदगी से दूर मोक्ष प्राप्त करने की कामना रखता है।

Chanakya was an Indian teacher, philosopher and royal advisor. He managed the first Maurya emperor Chandraguptas rise to power at a young age. He is widely credited for having played an important role in the establishment of the Maurya Empire, which was the first empire in archaeologically recorded history to rule most of the Indian subcontinent.Chanakya is traditionally identified as Kautilya or Vishnu Gupta, who authored the ancient Indian political treatise called Arthasastra. As such, he is considered as the pioneer of the field of economics and political science in India, and his work is thought of as an important precursor to Classical Economics. Chanakya Neeti is a treatise on the ideal way of life, and shows Chanakya's deep study of the Indian way of life.

Chanakya also developed Neeti-Sutras (aphorism sentences) that tell people how they should behave. Of these well-known 455 sutras, about 216 refer to rajaneeti (the do,s and dont's of running a kingdom). Apparently, Chanakya used these sutras to groom Chandragupta and other selected disciples in the art of ruling a kingdom.
