Genghis Khan valued the eminent scholars of his time and paid close attention to their words and teachings while at the same time trying to implement their advice. Genghis also consulted with scholars and scientists about the issues of attracting the favor of the people, governing the state, and relating with civilians. “In Genghis’ time, words and teachings of scholars were the laws for the next generations”, said Altan Tovch of Luvsandanzan. Genghis Khan asked about how to govern the state from Goo Setsen of Tanguudtai. Goo Setsen of Tanguudtai said that; “A Khan has to be like the sun, not to be late and to be like the lake and to not reject”. The Khan thought about it for three days and nights and wasn’t able to figure out the meaning. Goo Setsen of Tanguudtai explained: “The sun shines and gives light to all of us, regardless good or bad. If the Khan is like that, everybody will be treated equally and the eyes of the State will be sharp. Bad or good rivers both pour into a lake. If dirty or clean animals have a bath in a lake, it absorbs all of them without rejection. If the Khan is like a lake, he has to be honest with complaints, not provoke evil words and accept all true words as judgment and the state will be peaceful and solid”. He used scholars’ teachings in the affairs of the state. Genghis respected and followed the words and teachings of Chan Chun, his nine courtiers and foreign envoys and scholars.
