Note 63 — LAW AND JUDICATURE.
W. A. (William Austin) Montriou translation
This Śástra teaches a system or science of ethics such as moralists now-a-days designate as Machiavellian or jesuitical; in which right or wrong have a relative but little intrinsic meaning.
The Artha Śástra is to be found in the writings of Uśanas, of Brihaspati and others.
