[Assam] Panchatantra: Gain/Loss of Friends ??

[umesh sharma]

Some might recall the ageless stories of Pancha-Tantra (panch = five, Tantra = systems/games/ways)

http://www.panchatantra.org/the-loss-of-friends.html 

Loss of Friends:
to be most careful is when you are powerful but gullible and make friends with another who is powerful but relies on external advice - my own family life has been struck by this story and thanks to it I am here in US. 

Powerful synergies and collaborations can be undone by scheming persons - esp when political power is at stake --whether in an organization or at govt/state level.


Thankfully, I had great friends who have been my pillars of support -- so having great friends networks is useful !!??? http://www.panchatantra.org/second-strategy-gaining-friends.html

Any comments?
