Thirukkural-On Wise Friendship-Kural-445
Soolvaaraichch soolindhu kolal
As
the
king"s
counselors
are
effectively
his
own
eyes,
He
should
choose
them
wisely
K
M
Balasubramaniam
quotes
from
Diogenes
to
say
that
“Wise
kings
generally
have
wise
counselors,
and
he
must
be
wise
man
himself,
who
is
capable
of
distinguishing
one".
One would naturally agree. It certainly needs wisdom of discernment in oneself to identify wisdom of discernment in oneself to identify wisdom in others and to utilize them for one"s own benefit and the benefit of the kingdom. Akbar was not a conventionally learned man, but he was innately wise (Padikaadha maedhai) who could identify wise and great men and gather them around him.
These renderings follow the interpretation of Parimel Azhagar. But Manakudavar and other commentators differ in their interpretations. They would have it that the king should be capable of over-coming by his own 'scheming" (Soolchi) those enemies of his, who 'scheme" against him, physically by force, or otherwise. Obviously valluvar has not intended this.
Pazhamozhi describes an ill-advised king as follows:
“Katraar palaraikk kanaaha illaadhaan" (Palamozhi, 228)
