Shall we begin? 💡🔥
🎬 The Story Begins…
Once upon a time, in a dense jungle, a hungry tiger was roaming around, searching for food. Hours passed, but he found nothing. Just when he was about to lose hope, he spotted a fat, juicy goat inside a big enclosure. “Ah! My dinner!” he thought.
Luckily for him, the gate was open. The tiger quietly entered, pounced on the goat, and had a grand feast. Stomach full, heart happy! But when he tried to leave, arre bap re! the gate was locked!
The tiger panicked but then got an idea—he sat down, closed his eyes, and pretended to pray. Hands joined, eyes shut, as if he was the greatest saint!
Just then, a Brahmin happened to pass by. Seeing a tiger sitting so peacefully, deep in meditation, he was shocked. “A tiger praying? What kind of leela is this?”
The Brahmin took a step closer. The tiger slowly opened his eyes and smiled.
“Namaste, O holy man! God has sent me a message just for you!”
The Brahmin’s eyes widened. “A message? For me?” He had been praying to God for 40 years, and now, a tiger had a divine message for him? “Maybe my prayers have been answered!”
The tiger nodded. “Yes, but I can only whisper it in your ear. Just open the gate for a moment, and I’ll tell you!”
The Brahmin hesitated. “This seems risky… but if it’s God’s message, how can I refuse?” So, trembling, he unlocked the gate.
BAM! The tiger leaped out, stretched, and grinned. “God is very pleased with you, dear Brahmin! And as a reward, he wants you to give me food!”
“Food?! What food?” the Brahmin stammered.
The tiger licked his lips. “Arre bhai, YOU are the food! Come, let’s not waste time!”
The Brahmin fell to his knees. “Please, O mighty tiger, don’t eat me! I have six small children. They will starve without me!”
The tiger shook his head. “Not my problem, Brahmin ji! My stomach doesn’t understand emotions!”
But then, the tiger had another idea. “Alright, I’ll be fair. Let’s ask three jungle judges. If even ONE of them supports you, I’ll spare you!”
The Brahmin had no choice but to agree.
The Three Judges
👉 The First Witness – An Old Banyan Tree
The Brahmin approached a huge, ancient banyan tree standing tall on the roadside.
He asked, “Oh wise Banyan Baba, tell me, is this fair? I helped the tiger, and now he wants to kill me!”
The Banyan tree sighed deeply and said, “Ah, my dear Brahmin… I stand here every day, giving cool shade to tired travelers. But do they ever thank me? No! Instead, they pluck my leaves, break my branches, and chop my wood for their own use! This world is selfish! You must accept this reality.”
Hearing this, the Brahmin felt even more disheartened.
👉 The Second Witness – An Old Bull
Next, the Brahmin saw an old bull, tied to a grinding wheel, turning it slowly despite his weak and tired body.
The Brahmin asked him the same question, “Oh noble bull, is it fair that the one who helps gets punished in return?”
The bull shook his head sadly and said, “When I was young and strong, I gave my master fresh, rich milk every day. In return, he cared for me and fed me well. But now that I have grown old and weak, he has tied me to this grinding stone, making me work endlessly without rest! This is the rule of the world!”
The Brahmin started losing hope… Was there no fairness left in this world?
The Brahmin’s face turned pale. The tiger licked his lips. “One more judge left,” he said. “Better pray hard!”
Enter the Clever Fox
Their final judge was a clever, cunning fox. She listened to both sides carefully and then frowned. “Hmm… something isn’t making sense.”
She scratched her head. “So you’re saying that the tiger was inside the cage, and the Brahmin was outside?”
“YES!” the tiger roared.
“And then the Brahmin came and unlocked the gate?”
“Exactly!” the tiger growled.
The fox nodded. “But… I’m still confused. How exactly were you sitting inside? Can you show me again?”
“Uff, what a foolish fox!” the tiger grumbled. “Fine, I’ll show you!”
And just like that, the tiger walked back into the cage.
“Ah, now I get it!” said the fox. “But wait… I need to see if the door works properly. Brahmin ji, can you close the gate for a second?”
The Brahmin, now wiser, quickly slammed the door shut and locked it!
The fox grinned. “Well, well, well… looks like we’re back to where we started!”
The tiger realized he had been fooled. “HEY! Open the door! This isn’t fair!”
The fox chuckled. “Fair? Arre, this is EXACTLY what you wanted! You were praying inside, na? Now continue your prayers!”
The Brahmin, without wasting a second, ran for his life.
🔥Moral of the Story:
In this world, intelligence and quick thinking will always defeat brute strength!
🔥 “The world is a jungle… Are you the hunter or the hunted?”
🔥 “Being good is important, but being smart is even more important!”
🔥 “If you don’t use intelligence, you will always lose in life’s game!”

🔥 Scene 1: The Trapped Tiger!
A tiger was trapped inside a cage. One day, a kind-hearted Brahmin (priest) was passing by. The tiger pleaded,
“Oh kind Brahmin, please let me out! I have been starving inside this cage. I promise I won’t harm you!”
The Brahmin felt pity and thought, Helping others is a noble thing… I must free this poor tiger!
So, he opened the cage…
The moment the tiger stepped out, his face changed. He growled and said,
“Thank you for freeing me! Now, I am going to eat you because I am starving!”
The Brahmin was shocked! “What? But I just helped you! How can you betray me like this?”
The tiger laughed, “This is the law of the jungle! The strong always eat the weak!”
The Brahmin pleaded, “At least let me ask three beings if they think this is fair!”
The tiger agreed.

💡 Real-Life Example:

🔥 Scene 3: The Witnesses of the Jungle!
The Brahmin said, “Alright! Let me ask the wise beings of this jungle whether this is justice or injustice.”
👉 First Witness – An Old Banyan Tree
The Brahmin asked, “Oh wise Banyan Baba, is it fair that I helped the tiger, and now he wants to kill me?”
The Banyan tree sighed and said, “Ah, my dear Brahmin… I stand here every day, giving shade to travelers. But do they ever thank me? No! Instead, they pluck my leaves and cut my branches! This world is selfish! You must accept this reality.”
The Brahmin felt even more hopeless.
👉 Second Witness – An Old Bull
Next, the Brahmin saw an old bull, tied to a grinding wheel, turning it slowly despite his weak and tired body.
The Brahmin asked, “Oh noble bull, is this fair?”
The bull shook his head sadly and said, “When I was young, I gave my master fresh, rich milk. In return, he cared for me and fed me well. But now that I am old, he has tied me to this grinding stone, making me work endlessly without rest! This is the law of the world!”
The Brahmin felt completely helpless.
👉 Third Witness – The Road
The Brahmin then asked the jungle road, “Tell me, is this justice?”
The road said, “Every day, hundreds of people walk over me. No one cares about me! The world is full of selfishness!”
Now, the Brahmin completely lost hope! 😞

And in that moment, the fox quickly locked the cage and said, “Problem solved!”
