metadata.value: The extant variants of the now-lost treatise Činggis-un yisün örlüg-tei önöčin köbegün-ü čečelegsen
  šastir are attested in the 17th–18th century Mongolian historical chronicles Altan Tobči / The
  Golden Chronicle (1655) by Lubsangdanjin and the Bolor Erike /“Crystal Rosary”/ (1774–1775)
  by Rasipungsug. This article addresses the history of transmission, translations, and studies of
  this text, and demonstrates that the Činggis-un yisün örlüg-tei öničin köbegün-ü čečelegsen šastir
  is not merely an account of Chinggis Khan’s discussion with his nine high officials about the
  benefits and evils of alcohol, but contains deeper hidden meanings. Specifically, this paper offers
  the following four findings: First, based on comparison with Mongolian historical sources, this
  paper clarifies the origins of Chinggis Khan’s nine high officials, how they befriended Chinggis
  Khan, their merits and accomplishments, and their deaths. Based on these sources, we have determined
  that the events described in the Činggis-un yisün örlüg-tei öničin köbegün-ü čečelegsen
  šastir date to 1206–1207. Second, this paper discusses the hidden meaning that Bo’orchu, Muqali,
  Boqorul, Jebe, who wish to abstain from alcohol and diligently perform their duties, befriended
  Chinggis Khan in their childhood without seeking any benefit, were fully trustworthy officials,
  whereas Sorqan-Shira, Jelme, Yelü Chucai, Qara Kiru and Shigi-Qutuqu — who, in their own
  words, wish to drink alcohol and revel — befriended Chinggis Khan later out of self-benefit, and
  were untrustworthy officials. Third, the paper discusses the symbolism of the order of the speakers’
  words on alcohol as it relates to the ranks of Chinggis Khan’s officials, as well as Mongolian
  cultural symbolism relating to directions. Fourth, based on the debate in the text between the
  orphan boy, wise nobleman Chindagha, and Chinggis Khan, this paper discusses the fact that
  one reason Chinggis Khan’s state was powerful is that he listened to average people and he was
  able to reflect their ideas in national affairs. Fifth, this paper demonstrates that the text retains
  important features of deep hidden meaning and poetic verse characteristic of 13th century Mongolian
  literature.
