To what was importance given among artha, dharma, and kaama in Kautilya’s Arthashastra?

Answer»

Kautilya gave importance to artha among artha, dharma and Kaama in his Arthashastra. His idea was that the basis of happiness lay in religion and the root of religion is artha, and artha’s basis is the king. According to them, both dharma and kaama rely on Artha. Kautilya has held the money earned in the proper manner as justified. He said, “Wealth is the only thing in the world, religion and work are subject to wealth.”
