Sanjeevi said, "O King, the enemy is not only strong but also cruel and follows no ethics of war. Peace with such party cannot last. Let us fight in a way that we can gain advantage."
 
Anujeevi advised, "The enemy is stronger than us, so it will not be wise to fight them. They are cruel and have not ethics, so we cannot make peace with them. I suggest we retreat to a safer place."
 
Prajeevi said, "I advice entrenchment. We will be safe only in our own home. If we desert our post, we will never be able to return."
 
Chiranjeevi said, "Let us seek the advice of allies and defeat the enemy with their assistance." 
 
The king of crows was not satisfied with the suggestions and sought the advice of Sthirajeevi, an old minister of the king's father, "You have heard the suggestions by my ministers. Please suggest me the right course of action that we should adopt." 
 
Sthirajeevi replied, "Your Majesty, all ministers have suggested in accordance to nitishashtra, and their recommendations are indeed good. But they do not serve the situation that we are in. For an enemy who is much stronger than us, we should a path of intrigue. You will need to send spies to find their weak-points to outwit the enemy"
