  • Resumen

  • A monkey was a devotee and confidant of a king. The king had appointed that monkey as his bodyguard and he was allowed to move freely anywhere in the palace. One day the king was sleeping and the monkey was blowing air with a fan standing near him. A fly sat on the king's chest while he was sleeping. Even after repeatedly trying to remove it with the fan, it kept sitting on his chest again and again. Frustrated, the foolish monkey struck the fly with a sharp sword. The fly flew away but the king's chest was broken in two and he died then and there. That's why it is said that friendship with a fool can be harmful. On the other hand, there lived a learned Brahmin in a city who had become a thief due to some circumstances. Once four Brahmins from another city came there. When he saw these Brahmins earning money by selling some things, he thought, "Why not steal their money somehow?" Thinking this, he came to the Brahmins and joined them by buttering them up with sweet honeyed words. The brahmins bought precious gems with all their money and put them in a bundle and tied them around their thighs inside the clothes. Seeing all this, the thief thought that he should somehow accompany them so when there was a chance, he could steal them. He somehow persuaded them to take him along with them by talking sweetly to them. Seeing the five of them on the way, the crows cried out, "Oh Kirats! Run and run, the very rich ones are going. Kill them and take away all their wealth." When the Kirats heard the crows, they surrounded the brahmins and checked all their belongings but they did not find any money. Then the bandits said, "These crows do not lie. Give us whatever money you have, otherwise we will kill you and take everything you have." Hearing them, the thief thought, "If they kill these brahmins and find jewelry with them, they will think that I also have jewelry and will kill me too." Thinking so, he went ahead and said, "O Bandits! If so, then you check me thoroughly." The dacoits beat him and searched him in every way but found nothing. Then the thieves felt that the rest of the Brahmins would also have nothing and they let them go. Thus a wise enemy saved the lives of those brahmins. Learn more about your ad choices.
