The hall marks of a great leader are five in nature. A great leader knows the law. He knows his people. He knows that which is beneficial. He knows the right measure and he knows the right time. And it is by being armed with these five knowedges that he dispenses his duties and responsibilities, that he shows the way. At all times purity of intention is foremost. It is an absolute necessity. Needless to say one who is well established in these qualities, his intentions will also have that purity. To him always the welfare of his subjects is at heart.

His happiness is derived by seeing his people's happiness. To him altruistic joy or joy at the well being of others is nutrition. Because of such purity of intention and because he is endowed with these qualities firmly sustained by his continuous practice of those qualities he comes to achieve his objectives, fulfils his aspirations not only for his own welfare but for the welfare of others too.
