  • Summary

  • That is, some people earn money, but they are not able to use it. Somilak also reached the forest, but he could not take any advantage of it. अर्थस्योपार्जनं कृत्वा नैव भोगं समश्नुते। अरण्यं महदासाद्य मूढः सोमिलको यथा॥ A tailor named Somilak, who lived in a town, was a respected and well known artist. He used to stitch fine clothes for the kings, but still he could not earn as much money as ordinary tailors. Distressed by his financial condition, one day Somilak said to his wife, "“ear! What kind of game is being played by God that even ordinary weavers earn more than me. I think maybe this place is not right for me, so I want to try my luck by going to some other place.” Somilak's wife said, “You are not right to think like this. Even if you go to Meru parvat, even if you start living in the desert. Wherever you go, if you do not use the money you have accumulated, then the money earned will also go away. That's why I say that you keep doing your business by staying here." The artisan said, "Dear! I do not agree with your view. Anyone can change their destiny by working hard. That's why I will definitely go to another place." Thinking of this, Somilak went to another city and started working efficiently and in no time he earned three hundred gold coins. Then he took those gold coins and went towards his house. As the sun was setting, he slept on a tree branch to avoid wild animals. In the middle of the night, he heard two people known as Bhagya and Purushartha speak. Bhagya said to Purushartha, "When you know that not much money has been written in the fate of this tailor, then why did you give him three hundred gold coins?" Purushartha replied, "I had to give him the fruits of his labor, the rest is up to you." On hearing this, the tailor woke up and took his bag, which was by then empty. Seeing this, he started crying. Not considering it appropriate to go home empty-handed, he again returned to his work and started working hard again. Having collected five hundred gold coins in a year, he again went to his home one day. This time, even after sunset, he did not think it proper to stop or sleep and kept on moving.
