Panchatantra tells about five ways that help the human being succeed in life.
The word ‘Panchatantra’ is derived from ‘Sanskrut’ language. ‘Pancha’ means five and ‘tantra’ means principle; thus, ‘Panchatantra’ means ‘Five principles’.
These 5 principles can guide a King as well as a common man in his daily life. The guidance of how should a King rule his kingdom, how and whom should he befriend, how to select a true friend and how to behave in daily life, all this is given in this text in the form of stories.
Mitra-bheda ( The Loss of Friends) , It is longest of the five books, making up roughly
45% of Panchtantra.
Mitra-labha (The Winning of Friends)
Kakolukiyam (On War and Peace: The story of the crows and the owls)
Labdhapranasam (On Losing What You have Gained)
Apariksitakarakam (Ill-Considered Action)
The stories thus operate like a succession of Russian dolls, one narrative opening within
another, sometimes three or four deep.
