Shallow Judgment

-

Once a thirsty Stag was roaming around in the forest in search of water. After a while he found a clear water lake. Stag went to lake and drank water. After drinking water while looking in the water, he saw his own reflection.

In reflection, he saw his beautiful horns. He was so happy to see how beautiful his horns are and admired them. But as soon as he saw reflection of his legs, he despised them because they were looking thin and ugly.

Just then Stag heard sound of someone approaching toward the lake.

Stag saw and there were bunch of wild dogs who were running towards the lake.

Stag got scared, and in great fear he started to run. In order to save himself he ran fast in opposite direction.

While running stag got caught upon the creepers because of his horns and couldn't free himself. Stag tried really hard to free itself from creepers but even after many tries, he couldn’t free himself.

In the meantime, Dogs who were chasing him, caught up to him and killed him.

Just before Dogs killed him, Stag thought to himself, "I was so foolish to despise my thin ugly legs and admire my horns. Because of my legs, I was able to run as fast as possible to escape the danger, but my horns which I admired for their beauty became cause of my death.

 

Lesson:

Do not be narrow minded in making any judgment towards anyone, including our own existence. Judgments based on external appearance are very shallow.

Very long ago, there lived a huge apple tree offering tasty apples to the people. A little boy became close friend to the apple tree. The boy used to play with the tree, climb the branches, sleep under the shadow, pluck apples, etc. Every day he visited the tree, and ate apples. The apple tree was so kind to the boy and enjoyed spending time with the little boy.   The boy joined school and could not spend any time with the apple tree. After several months the boy came to the apple tree. The tree was so happy to see the boy and asked him to play with it.   The boy said that he was not a little one to play with the trees. But he had another request to the tree.  The tree asked what he wanted. The boy said that he needed toys to play, but his parents did not have sufficient money to buy toys for him.   The tree replied, ‘Dear friend, I do not have any money to buy toys for you, but you can pick the apples, sell them, get money and buy the t...

Once a father and son went to the kite flying festival. The young son became very happy seeing the sky filled with colorful kites. He too asked his father to get him a kite and a thread with a roller so he can fly a kite too. So, the father went to the shop at the park where the festival was being held. He purchased kites and a roll of thread for his son. His son started to fly a kite.  Soon, his kite reached high up in the sky.  After a while, the son said, “Father, It seems that the thread is holding up a kite from flying higher, If we break it, It will be free and will go flying even higher.  Can we break it?”   So, the father cut the thread from a roller.  The kite started to go a little higher.  That made a son very happy. But then, slowly, the kite started to come down. And, soon it fell down on the terrace of the unknown building. The young son was surprised to see this. He had cut the kite loose of its thread so it can fly high...
