कच्चिन् मन्त्रयसे न एकः कच्चिन् न बहुभिः सह | कच्चित् ते मन्त्रितो मन्त्रो राष्ट्रं न परिधावति || २-१००-१८<ref name=":12" /></blockquote>Rama also advocates secrecy within the counsel. He states that one's endeavours must become known to others only after they are successful or are about to succeed, and not in an intentional or proposed state. Therefore, without being revealed either by the Raja himself or his ministers, the details of the counsel with ministers should not be known to others through conjecture, inference or anyother means.<blockquote>कच्चित् तु सुकृतान्येव कृतरूपाणि वा पुनः | विदुः ते सर्वकार्याणि न कर्तव्यानि पार्थिवाः || २-१००-२०

He says that while thousands of fools fail to render the required help, one wise, valiant, discerning and efficient minister alone is capable of securing the prosperity of those in authority.<blockquote>कच्चित् सहस्रान् मूर्खाणाम् एकम् इच्छसि पण्डितम् | पण्डितो ह्यर्थकृच्छ्रेषु कुर्यान् निश्रेयसं महत् || २-१००-२२

Do you, regally adorned, appear before the people on rising each morning, on the great high way?<blockquote>कच्चिद् दर्शयसे नित्यम् मनुष्याणाम् विभूषितम् | उत्थाय उत्थाय पूर्व अह्णे राज पुत्रो महा पथे || २-१००-५१</blockquote>I hope you greet your teachers, the elderly, the ascetics, the deities; the unexpected visitors, the trees standing at cross roads and all the brahmins of auspicious life and conduct.<blockquote>कच्चिद् गुरूमः च वृद्धामः च तापसान् देवता अतिथीन् | चैत्यामः च सर्वान् सिद्ध अर्थान् ब्राह्मणामः च नमस्यसि || २-१००-६१</blockquote>I hope you do not abrogate virtue by your excessive devotion to wealth or your excessive devotion to wealth or your earthly interests by your over-emphasis on religion or both your religious and secular interests by your self-indulgence in pleasure, greed and gratification of the senses<blockquote>कच्चिद् अर्थेन वा धर्मम् धर्मम् धर्मेण वा पुनः | उभौ वा प्रीति लोभेन कामेन न विबाधसे || २-१००-६२</blockquote>I hope your pursue wealth, religion and the delights of the sense dividing them all according to time, O Jewel among the victorious, the one who is conversant with the proper time and O, the bestower of boons<blockquote>कच्चिद् अर्थम् च धर्मम् च कामम् च जयताम् वर | विभज्य काले कालज्न सर्वान् भरत सेवसे || २-१००-६३</blockquote>I hope you solicit for one wise man rather than for a thousand stupids for, a wise man can be of a great help to you in difficult matters. Even if a king employs thousands or tens of thousands of fools, they will not be helpful to him. Even one wise, valiant, sagacious and efficient minister alone can cause to secure great prosperity to the king or to one who enjoys royal authority.<blockquote>कच्चित् सहस्रान् मूर्खाणाम् एकम् इग्च्छसि पण्डितम् | पण्डितो ह्य् अर्थ कृग्च्छ्रेषु कुर्यान् निह्श्रेयसम् महत् || २-१००-२२
