Arthashastra
अनिष्टैर् अद्भुत उत्पातैः परस्य उद्वेगम् आचरेत् । आराज्याय इति निर्वादः समानः कोप उच्यते ॥
Terror should be caused to the enemy by exhibiting these and other wonderful and delusive performances; while anger causing terror is common to all, terrification by such wonders is held as a means to consolidate peace.
english translation
aniSTair adbhuta utpAtaiH parasya udvegam Acaret । ArAjyAya iti nirvAdaH samAnaH kopa ucyate ॥
