सुखस्य मूलं धर्मः । धर्मस्य मूलं अर्थः । 
अर्थस्य मूलं राज्यं । राज्यस्य मूलं इन्द्रिय जयः ।

( This sloka was quoted by shri Yogi Adityanath,chief minister of U.P. )

The root of happiness is Dharma (ethics, righteousness), the root of Dharma is Artha (economy, polity), the root of Artha is right governance, the root of right governance is victorious inner-restraint, the root of victorious inner-restraint is humility, the root of humility is serving the aged. — Kautilya, Chanakya Sutra

‘மும்மை சால் உலகுக்கு எல்லாம் மூல மந்திரத்தை, முற்றும்
தம்மையே தமர்க்கு நல்கும் தனிப் பெரும் பதத்தை, தானே
இம்மையே, எழுமை நோய்க்கும் மருந்தினை, ‘இராமன்’ என்னும்
செம்மை சேர் நாமம் தன்னை கண்களில் தெரியக் கண்டான்.’
( இது ராம நாமத்தைப் பற்றி வாலி ) –Kamba Ramayanam

Vaali  sees the moola mantra-the name of Rama etched in the arrow .

उद्विजन्ते यथा सर्पान्नरादनृतवादिनः।
धर्म स्सत्यं परो लोके मूलं स्वर्गस्य चोच्यते।।Ramayana  2.109.12

People are frightened at the sight of a man speaking untruth as though they have seen a serpent. Truth in this world is the greatest virtue and is said to be the very foundation of heaven.(Sri Rama to Jabali )

स्त्री मूलं हि धर्मः । यत्र नार्यस्तु पूज्यन्ते तत्र रमन्ते देवताः । Manusmriti
Stree moolam hi dharmah I Yatra naaryaastu poojyante tatra ramante devataah II
The root of dharma is indeed woman. Where the ladies are respected there the Gods reside (enjoy)

कामं व्यसनवृक्षस्य मूलं दुर्जनसंगतिः I
Kāmaṃ vyasanavṛkṣasya mūlaṃ durjanasaṃgatiḥ
The root cause of sorrow is the company of bad people.

 राजा धर्मश्च कामश्च द्रव्याणां चोत्तमो निधिः ।
धर्मः शुभं वा पापं वा राजमूलं प्रवर्तते ॥ ३.५०.१०
A king is the best repository of righteousness, material wealth and pleasures. The king is the root of dharma, virtue and sin.

यतोमूलं नरः पश्येत्प्रादुर्भावमिहात्मनः।
कथं तस्मिन्नवर्तेत प्रत्यक्षे सति दैवते।।2.18.16।।(Sri Rama to Kaikeyi )
How can a man who owes his origin (birth) in this world to him (father) who still exists as a visible god not conduct himself (as per his wish)?

 मन्त्रो विजय मूलम् हि राज्नाम् भवति राघव |
सुसम्वृतो मन्त्र धरैर् अमात्यैः शास्त्र कोविदैः || २-१००-१६
"The source of victory for kings indeed comes from a concealed counsel by ministers, who are well-versed in political sciences and who can hide their thoughts within themselves." ( Sri Rama to Bharata )
