(၁) အေစ့အစပ္ျပဳျခင္းဟူေဟာ သႏၶိဂုဏ္


(1).The virtue of Sandhi-- Skill in reconciliation

Among these six gunas the sandhi guna comes into play when one king of great power is about to be defeated and crushed or where he has been extremely discomforted in a great war.

ဤဂုဏ္ေျခာက္ပါးတုိ႔တြင္ အေစ့အစပ္ျပဳျခင္းသႏၶိဂုဏ္ကုိ အင္အားႀကီး ေသာမင္းႏွင့္ အေၾကာင္းအညီၫြတ္၍ အင္အားႀကီးေသာမင္းက ဖိစီးႏွိပ္စက္မည္ ရွိရာ၌လည္းေကာင္း၊ စစ္တုိက္ၾကရာ အလြန္ရႈံးနိမ့္နာၾကည္းရာ၌ လည္းေကာင္း ျပဳအပ္ေသာဂုဏ္တည္း။


In the Kamantaki Nīti and the Hitopadesa texts these merits are described as sixteen, thus:

ဤဂုဏ္သည္လည္း ဆယ့္ေျခာက္မ်ိဳးရွိေၾကာင္းကုိ ကာမႏၵကီနီတိက်မ္း, ဟိေတာပေဒသက်မ္းတုိ႔၌ ဆုိ၏။

Digression :- (this form of the sandhi guna, which accepts the responsibility of undertaking a companionship for better or worse, with no change of mind, that is not to be cast off for a whole lifetime, is for the purpose of making a friendship as solid as the centre of a bar of purest gold, never to be cut in two. Since friendship is like gold, it is known as kañcana sandhi guna (golden)".)
