THE FOX AND THE TREE TRUNK MORAL STORY

     Deep in the forest lived a fox. He was cunning and was content in cheating other animals. He stole and ate the food stored by other animals.

It was a hot summer day and food was in shortage even for active animals. The fox, who was lazy to hunt, found it very difficult to even steal some food. He roamed around the forest in search of some easy food.





        He came to pass by a large tree. There was a large hole in the trunk of the tree. The fox sniffed around and smelt some food inside the trunk. The food was actually kept by some woodcutters who had gone there to cut some trees for firewood. The greedy fox happily jumped into the tree hole and started to eat the food. Soon, the fox had eaten all the food and was stomach full.

        Once content with his food, the fox felt thirsty, as the food was cooked and not raw as in the case of animal catches. The fox wanted to get out of the tree hole. He started to climb out, but alas, to the surprise of the fox, he could not come out. The hole had gone tight for the fox as his tummy was full.




Now, the fox was feeling bad about himself. He thought that he should not have jumped into the hole in order to steal food. In the meantime, the woodcutters who had gone to cut trees returned to take their food. They found the fox stuck and trying to ease out of the hole. They took some strong sticks and gave a nice beating. The fox somehow managed to escape and ran into the forest, regretting his mistake.

THE LIZARD AND THE SAINT - MORAL STORY

            There was a wicked saint who lived in a village. Although saints were very pious, this saint was the opposite. He was very cunning and selfish. He was not humble and kind. He used to chase away anyone approaching his hut. People did not like him. But, they were afraid of his curses. The saint was arrogant with his powers.      One day, a lizard happened to fall from a nearby tree into his hut. The saint turned very angry. He shouted at the lizard, "Get out of my house immediately, or. I shall curse you." The lizard ran away to save his life.        Not many days later, the same lizard slipped from the tree and fell again. This time the saint could not control his anger.

It struck the saint right on his forehead and the sa...

THE SNAKE AND THE GREEN FROG - MORAL STORY

          It had just rained and the forest was nourishing with water everywhere. There was no shortage of food for every animal.  A snake was swimming in a pond. It had an eye on the plentiful fish in the pond. As it was about to catch a fish, the other fish saw it and pecked at it, biting and annoying it. The snake could not catch the fish. The disappointed snake swam to the shore and was about to leave the place. Just then it saw a frog croaking nearby. So it went to the frog and asked, "What is the justice in the act of the fish.        I was about to catch a big fish, but the other fish chased me off." The frog thought for a while and replied, "Of course, it is just. When the fish comes to you, you can eat it. But, when you go to the fish the fish have right to chase you off." Saying this, the frog leapt away saying to itself, "Oh God! I've been lucky today to have escaped." Moral: EVEN THE MIGHTY ERRS  !!! **** **** ****

THE ELEPHANT AND THE HELPFUL MICE MORAL STORY

In the heart of the forest, there was a ruined palace. The king had used it as a summer resort a long time back.    Now that the king had died, there were no visitors and the palace had turned into ruins. This ruined leftover had become the shelter for a colony of mice. Once, a herd of elephants happened to cross that way. With loud trumpeting, they crumpled everything they set foot on. When they were about to crush the ruins, the chief mouse ran to the master elephant and begged, "Hey mighty elephant, we are living in these ruins for generations and generations. All our children and their children would turn homeless if your mighty feet lands on these ruins. Be kind enough to spare our lives and our homes." The kind-hearted elephant ordered its fellow elephants not to disturb the ruins and left the place without damaging it.          Days went by. Season changed. Summer came. The mice went through the entire forest in search of food. As they were appr...
