Three fishes and a fisherman

In a large pond has many fishes living in it. Of all these fishes, three are best friends, who are always together. They never leave the side of each other.

One day, a fisherman comes to this pond. Seeing lots of fishes, he invites other fishermen to cast nets. The three fishes worry about getting caught and killed by the fishermen.

The wise fish amongst them says, “We must find another pond and quickly move from here.” While one fish agrees, the other one is reluctant as he feels that this pond is their home. He says, “We should not behave cowardly, this pond is our home.”

The other two fish try hard to convince their friend, but they fail. So they decide to part ways and leave in search of a new pond. On the following day, when the fishermen arrive, the fish, who was unwilling to leave, gets caught and dies.

Moral Of The Story is that Always look at the bigger picture and let go of temporary attachments in crisis situations.

  K rishna and the Fruit of Karma Once, Krishna and Arjuna were taking a walk in the forest when they came across a fruit vendor. The vendor had a cart filled with a variety of fruits, including ripe mangoes. Krishna and Arjuna decided to buy some mangoes to satisfy their hunger. Krishna handed the vendor a bag of gold coins, but the vendor, without weighing the mangoes, gave them a small portion. Krishna and Arjuna didn't complain and accepted the fruit. As they were about to leave, Arjuna asked Krishna, "Why did you pay the vendor so much when he only gave us a few mangoes?" Krishna smiled and replied, "Arjuna, the fruit vendor gave us not only mangoes but also a valuable lesson in the fruit of karma (action). Just as he gave us less than what we paid for, people often receive less or more than what they deserve in life based on their karma. We should always act with kindness, fairness, and generosity, regardless of how others treat us." Arjuna realized the pr

One day, a man walked into the barber's shop for a haircut. As the barber worked, he engaged the man in a lively conversation. The topic turned to politics, and the man expressed his strong opinions, which happened to be in direct contrast to the ruler of the land.
