तीक्ष्णमुत्साहिनं व्यसनिनं स्थितशत्रुं वा गूढपुरुषाः शस्त्राग्निरसादिभिः साधयेयुः सौकर्यतो वा तेषामन्यतमः ॥ कZ_०९.६.५३ ॥
tīkṣṇam utsāhinaṃ vyasaninaṃ sthitaśatruṃ vā gūḍhapuruṣāḥ śastrāgni-rasādibhiḥ sādhayeyuḥ saukaryato vā teṣām anyatamaḥ.
密探应当制服(或消除)凶狠、极为进取、沉溺恶习或顽固不退的敌人——可用武器、火、毒药等手段;或视便利而定,采用其中任何一种方式。
The gūḍhapuruṣa (covert agent) is tasked with neutralizing high-risk enemies using clandestine means such as weapons, arson, or poison, chosen by feasibility.
Targets include the ruthless, the highly energetic (hard to deter), the vice-addicted (vulnerable yet dangerous), and the persistent enemy who remains hostile over time.
