THE STRENGTH OF PRAYER

THE STRENGTH OF PRAYER - MORAL STORY

Dharshan had a son called Nirmal. Both the father and son were very fond of one another. Once, they went on a vacation to a nearby forest. Night came. Not knowing that the place was haunted, they set camp in a ruined building.

Suddenly, Nirmal heard a loud noise and woke. He saw a demon roaming around. In the meantime, Dharshan also woke up. They both huddled together in fear. The demon found these two people and came to them. With a wicked smile, the demon said, "I am very hungry.

After a long time, I have found humans. Tell me, whom shall I eat?" With deep prayers in his heart, Nirmal said, "Oh demon, my father is too old. His flesh would not be as tasty as mine. So, eat me." With deep prayers in his heart, Dharshan said, "Spare my son. He has a long life to live. I have enjoyed all happiness in life. So, eat me instead." "No, no, no, eat me," pleaded Nirmal, with tears in his eyes. "No, no, no, eat me," pleaded Dharshan, with tears in his eyes.

The demon himself was astonished by the love and affection, and he left the place.

Moral: PRAYERS OF LOVE IS WELL HEARD.
