Dandam Dashagunam bhavet... 
Generally we come across this ancient maxim to indicate that when all the methods of mending a person/bringing things under control are exhausted like #Saama-#Daana-#Bheda; as a last resort #Dandam is invoked. +
Complete version that I have come across is as follows...
"Vishwamitrecha vardhakye ratraou apsu kardame
andhe sarpecha kridecha #dandam #dashagunam #bhavet"
Interpretation gives an indication of how a wise can effectively use #Dandam (stick) in ten different ways...+

The word #VishwaAmitra is split as,
vi + shwa + amitra indicating
vihaga (bird); shwana (dog); amitra (enemy).
Dhanda (stick) can be used to keep away the birds and dogs;
used against attackers (enemies).
"vardhakya" means old age;
"ratraou" means in darkness or in night;+

#Dandam has several meanings and interpretations;
it is also used in religious/spiritual parlance;
dhanurdharo dhanurvedo #dAndo damayitaa damah
aparaajitah sarvasaho niyantaa niyamo yamah.

In supreme sense #DANDA is one of the names & attributes of the Supreme God #Vishnu who is DandaH the one who punishes the wicked.🙏🙏🙏
