In all affairs, purity should be displayed (meaning, everyone should be assigned their appropriate task). The enigmatic individuals, who take on various forms, guided by the heart, unravel the secrets. Even the enigmatic individuals should rely on solemnity. Lust should be abandoned upon seeing women. Impetuosity and untimely actions should be recognized by the enigmatic individuals, and those who oppose them should be destroyed. Innocent conduct should be abandoned, as should the company of the wicked and indulgence in vices. The king should engage in the four vices: women, gambling, alcohol, and animal slaughter. He should reside in a land abundant in grains, grass, and water. These are the causes of cruelty and lust. Wealth should not be destroyed through injustice. One should engage in harsh punishment, harsh speech, or battle with an equal. One should make peace with the powerful through gifts. Fear, anger, and the emergence of lust are the three vices that I recognize in the rule of kings. These seven things should also be reconciled with, and even in friendship, enmity should not be allowed to be known. Thus, the unattainable should not be pursued excessively, and the six types of internal enemies should not be given a place in the heart. The kingdom is acquired. Upon its preservation, the desired fruit is obtained. For the sake of the prosperous people, abandon joy along with anger, pride, greed, arrogance, and lust. The guru proclaims that wealth should be given for their destruction. They should also be given eighteen pilgrimages. The kingdom is kept stable by the pilgrimages, and prosperity results from the kingdom. It does not perish. The king, minister, nation, wealth, wisdom, strength, and the seventh, the fortress that destroys the enemy's strength. O son, just as this seven-part kingdom should not be destroyed, so should the earth be protected. The teacher says that the king's friend, constantly residing in another country, becomes an enemy.
