'vasudhaiva kutumbakam' is mentioned in panchatantra & later in hitopadesha as a pejorative phrase for those who're too naive to think that all are good and equal.
In the panchatantra - 5.3.37, which is a collection of animal fables,the verse is uttered from the mouth of a declared fool who is killed by his naivety, suggesting it as a symbol of impracticality.
The hitopadesha - 1.3.71 goes a step further, and not once but twice demonstrates its usage by sub-versionists, as well as tendency of the gullible to fall for it.
None of our shAstra, any shruti or smriti recommends or espouses 'vasudhaiva kutumbakam'. It was only mentioned as a teaching guide to young kids especially the future rulers to identify & escape from sweet entrapments of 'equality of all' and 'universal brotherhood',all of which are tools of the cunning & deceivers.
viShNusharman (the author of panchatantra) had warned us about the then present and forthcoming future evil ideologies. Sadly we dhArmika people have got entrapped in the very snare about which our ancestors warned us,the very naivety against which we're warned. In fact we idiotically promote the condemned jargon 'vasudhaiva kutumbakam': never to be a reality.
viSNugupta(kautilya/chANakya) is another and more famous but a bit less ignored guru. For convenience even if all the great dhArmika literature is ignored but the both viShNu~s, if read and followed by dhArmika people especially our leaders & cogs in the system; our people, desha & rAShTra would find & attain only greater and greater successes & glories.
