Kautilya mentioned four Upayas - Sama, Dana or Dama, Danda and Bheda as ways to reach a solution in state politics to avoid conflicts and war situations.[2] This phrase is also commonly used when you need to find a solution to a problem anyhow.
1. Sama, the first step, means conciliation or alliances. When the situation of conflict arises between states, the firsts step is to talk.
2. Dana, the second, means gifts or compensation. Sometimes it is referred to as Dama, price, it means to pay the value.
3. Bheda, refers to usage of Logic or Trickery, influence the mind.
4. Danda refers to force or armaments. To take up war with the opposite state.
All of the above four Upayas are generally spoken together in a single colloquial phrase - "Sama Dana Bheda Dandopaya". This is a very common quote that is used all over India as a suggestion to resolve any conflict.
Kusha
Kusha grass is specifically recommended by Lord Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita as part of the ideal seat for meditation. This amazing mat is woven by veteran weavers from India. According to early Buddhist accounts, it was the same kuśa grass material that was used by Gautama Buddha for his meditation seat when he attained enlightenment.
