बार्हस्पत्य सूत्र / अर्थशास्त्र (महर्षि बृहस्पति - प्राचीन दण्डनीति, राजधर्म एवं कूटनीति सटीक)

( 14 ) 62 Whoso loves his own wife and in taming him- self has capacity, is without equal. 63 A good man turns not aside through fear. 64 What at that time is proper is not to be spoken by friends not conversant with matters of speech. 65 One of arrogant heart, lost to respect for right, not self-controlled, he could not admonish. 66 when exhausted with frightful acts, sunk in the sleep of ignorance, he should enlighten the fool with the cool airs of righteous speeches. 67 Among bad men a good man shines forth like the sun. 68 Those committed to unrighteousness he should check by proper conduct. 69 In unrighteousness he should not involve himself. 70 In ill-repute he should not involve himself. 71 He should not slay. 72 Let a fool be restrained, like an elephant, with the hook of righteous reading. 73 A guru's word is not to be transgressed, if in accordance with reason. 74 Even a guru, if not equipped with policy, he should disregard. 75 A guru says it. So in the Brihaspati Sûtra the Second Chapter.
