Most Popular Indian Folklore: Tenali Raman and the Two Thieves

Hungry the cat started hunting mice, and the owner's house was clear of mice.

One day, the king wanted to review the situation and ordered the villagers to bring the cat to court. The villages complain that their cats haven't hunted mice, except for one owner whose cat stopped drinking milk thanks to Rama.

The king asked the cat owner, "Why is it that only your cat hunts mice? Don't you give him milk? "

Rama stepped up and said, "Venerable sir, it is not the owner's fault. This cat refuses to drink milk. "

“A cat that doesn't drink milk? How is that possible, Ram? "Asked the king.

"Let me show it to you, Your Majesty," said Rama and asked the guard to get a bowl of milk. As soon as the cat sees the milk bowl, it runs off.

The surprised king asked the reason behind it. Then, Rama said, “Venerable sir, I have given the cat a bowl of hot milk that burns its tongue. Since that day, this cat has never drank milk. "

"But, why did you do it?" asked the king.

Rama replied, “Venerable sir, cats will hunt mice only when they are hungry. By drinking milk every day, cats become healthy and lazy and do not hunt mice. To show you this, I gave hot milk to one of the cats. "

The king understood the flaws in the solution. He asks the ministers to find other solutions to help solve the problem. He also rewarded Ram dearly.


The moral of Tenali Rama's fairy tale is that what is wrong is wrong and must be abandoned, even if everyone else does.
