¹ According to Vishnu, Agrahāyana and Chaitra were the proper months for marching against an enemy. Ch. 3. Vide also Manu, VII. 182-185, and Mahābhārata, Sānti Parva, Sec. 100, sl. 11. According to Kautilya, a march in the month of Mārga-sīrsha (November-December) was the best, but marches might be commenced during other months, such as Chaitra and Jyaishtha. "A conqueror may march against an enemy at any time when the latter is in trouble." Bk. IX. ch. 1.
