πŸ§‘β€πŸ¦°πŸ§”πŸ»πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸ¦°πŸ¦The Making of A Lion:

Once upon a time there lived four friends in a hermitage. They leant many divine slokas and the way to perform various poojas and yajnas. After completing their studies, they were walking through a forest. There they came across a skeleton of a dead lion. They looked at it for while.

Gyanendra, one of the four friends said to the other friends, β€œFriends, let us test our knowledge. I will put the bones together using a magical verse."

Anupam, the second friend, said, β€œI know a magical verse which can create all the organs at their usual place and cover the body of the lion with its skin."

Subber, the third friend, then said, β€œI can put life in the lion using my magical powers and verse."

At this point of time, the fourth friend, Gopi said to them, β€œPlease…do not do that. Once the lion is alive, it will devour all of us."

But other three friends were stubborn and they did not listen to what Gopi said.

The other three friends went ahead with their words.

Gopi run and hid himself behind a tree.

Subeer then recited his verse and the lion immediately came to life. The thre friends looked at each other and smiled in satisfaction.

The lion killed the three friends and Gopi saved his life and said, β€œOnly if you had paid attention to what I said, you all would have remained alive. You should learn where and when to use the verses."

Everything happens for a reason. Life puts you down, only so you can get back up for the better things. Live life, forgive and forget. Let go of the past.

I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up all alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is ending up with people who make you feel all alone.

πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸ¦°πŸ§”πŸ»The Meaning of True Wealth:

There was a girl whose family was very wealthy. One day her father took her on a trip to the country where he aimed to show his daughter how poor people live. So they arrived at a farm of a very poor family. They spent several days there. On their return, the father asked his daughter, if she liked the trip.

Oh, it was great, dad - the girl replied.

Did you notice how poor people live? - the father asked.

Yeah, I did. - said the girl.

The father asked his daughter to tell in more detail about her impressions from their trip.

Well…we have only one dog and they have four of them. In our garden there is a pool while they have a river that has no end. We've got expensive lanterns, but they have stars above their heads at night. We have the patio and they have the whole horizon….the daughter replied in delight.

She further added…. We have only a small piece of land while they have the endless fields. We buy food, but they grow it. We have a high fence for protection of our property and they donβ€˜t need it, as their friends protect them.

The father was stunned. He could not say a word.

Then the girl added…Thank you, dad, for letting me see how poor we are.

This story shows that true wealth as well as happiness is not measured by material things. Love, friendship and freedom are far more valuable.

🐬🐟🐠The Foolish Fish:

In a huge pond, there lived many fish. They were arrogant and never listened to anyone. In this pond, there also lived a kind-hearted crocodile.

He advised the fish, β€œIt does not pay to be arrogant and overconfident. It could be your downfall." But the fish never listened to him. β€œThere is that crocodile, advising us again," they would say.

One afternoon, the crocodile was resting beside a stone near the pond, when two fishermen stopped there to drink water.

The fishermen noticed that the pond had many fish. β€œLook! This pond is full of fish. Let’s come here tomorrow with our fishing net," said one of them. β€œI am surprised we have not seen this place before!" exclaimed the other.

The crocodile heard all this. When the fishermen left, he slowly slipped into the pond and went straight to the fish. β€œYou all had better leave this pond before dawn. Early morning those two fishermen are going to come to this pond with their net," warned the crocodile.

But the fish just laughed and said, β€œThere have been many fishermen who have tried to catch us. These two are not going to catch us either. Do not you worry about us, Mr. Crocodile," they said in a mocking voice.

The next morning, the fishermen came and threw their net in the pond. The nets were big and strong. Very soon all the fish were caught. β€œIf only we had listened to Mr. Crocodile. He had only wanted to help. For our arrogance we have to pay with our lives," said the fish.

The fishermen took the foolish fish to the market and sold them for a good profit.
