Acharya Chanakya, also known as Kautilya or Vishnugupta, was the great philosopher, economist and strategist of ancient India.
The 'Chanakya Niti' written by him provides guidance on various aspects of life even in today's time. The things mentioned in this policy are as relevant today as it was at that time. Some relationships in human life are found with birth. At the same time, the relationship that the person makes by himself is called friendship. Friendship is a relationship that people go through limits to fulfill. Most people do not hide any secret from friends. Acharya Chanakya does not consider this to be right at all. According to Acharya Chanakya, friendship is a sacred and important relationship, but there are some things that should not be shared with friends. It can be very dangerous for you to share these things. Let us know what are those things that should never be told to a friend?
Individual weaknesses
According to Chanakya policy, a person should never expose his personal weaknesses to others, even if he is your closest friend. Do not tell anyone about weaknesses such as your fear, insecurity or any old trauma etc. If someone else knows this, then he can also use it against you. It is not necessary that the person who is with you is still your friend. According to Chanakya, a person should keep his weakness secret because it can become the weapon of your enemy. It is intelligent to limit your weaknesses to itself.
Economic status and wealth
In Chanakya policy, money has been considered an important part of life, but it has been asked to keep the information confidential. According to Chanakya policy, it can be risky to share your economic status, savings, investment, or debt information with friends. According to Chanakya, neither perform money in front of a friend nor should it be done in front of the enemy. Information about money can arouse greed, jealousy or wrong intentions in others. If you are in financial crisis, then keep it hidden too, because it can affect your social reputation.
Future plans and strategies
Chanakya believed that his future plans should be kept secret. Whether it is a new business strategy, a big career step, or any personal goal, should avoid sharing with friends. According to Chanakya policy, 'Keep your plan secret until it is complete.' Many times friends can inadvertently bring your plans to others, so that your hard work can be reinforced.
Family disputes and confidential things
Chanakya policy has been considered special on family unity and privacy. Family internal disputes, such as a quarrel between husband and wife, differences with parents or personal problems of siblings, should never be brought before friends. According to Chanakya, the matter of the house should remain in the house. Such things can hurt the family's reputation when going out of the house and can cause misunderstandings or gossip between friends.
Mysteries told by others
If someone has told you a secret by trusting you, do not share it with friends in any situation. Betrayal has been considered the greatest sin in Chanakya policy. If you highlight the mysteries of others, it not only weakens your character, but can also create mistrust among your friends.
