THE FOOLISH GARDENER - MORAL STORY

Gopu was a gardener in a beautiful garden on the outskirts of a city. He was in charge of planting new saplings and maintaining them till they grow up. As the garden was in the outskirts, many monkeys used to come to the garden to play on the lush trees and eat ripe fruits.

Once, Gopu had to go to a nearby town to attend an important function. Instead of asking for help from his friends, he called the leader monkey and left the garden in his charge. The monkey gave his word, "I shall take care of the garden with the help of my team till you return." The next morning, the leader monkey asked his team to water the plants.

The monkeys asked, "We shall water them. But, how much should we water?" The confused monkey said, "Just pull out each plant. See the length of the roots. Pour more water for the plants with long roots and less water for plants with short roots." The gardener returned with full hope that his garden would be in nice condition. He was shocked to see that all the plants were uprooted and lying dead. Only then did he understand his error.
