Offending is a sin action

Once there were a pandit living in a kingdom.  Who was a doctorate in history. He was a very famous to give lecture. He will give lots of historical lectures in his own and the neighboring kingdoms in front of the Monarchs and public. He was a winner of immense of awards, and medals by all royal lineages and also from researchers in his own and other kingdoms.  So, he will think in his mind that he is the only one the winner of so much awards, and gold medals, but others are uneducated. This will reflect when he has chat casually with outsiders, or his friends. So, for this reason he was known as arrogant and very conceited man in his own country and other neighboring countries. One day a particular kingdom's monarch, invited him to give a lecture on Indian History, and he appointed him for a week. Sent an invitation from the palace to all publics with in the kingdom, and lot of researchers from various places, with the royal seal to participate to that event. They all accepted the king's invitation and arrived to the Kingdome on time and that auditorium was in full. The pandit on that particular day he started to his speech about Indian history and successfully went for four days. The fourth day, Emperor asked him a cross- question, that who was the excellent monarch ruled in India, in which year and why it is called golden era of the Indian history, when and how it ended? The pandit started to response to the king. He impressively explained the history, but the king was not shaking his head at all. Instead of shaking his head he said that the history is wrong. The first time pandit's face begins sweating. Sadly, flash a smile at the king and he asked for his apology to him, but again he told changing the words and explained the same, but that was also wrong.   He tried many ways and failed. The entire courtiers and all invites opposed about his wrong explanation of the history. The king was very angrily sent him home and ordered him to find the accurate answer and asked him to come next day.  The pandit was very unhappy and returning home. While he was coming home who was thinking about his honors, his ability, the power of literacy, and his knowledge. Because of this king’s cross question, everything is vanished. How I forgot the history, and how I was being careless in my life, now nothing is with me and I think it is not even in my library, all these happened because of my bad luck, thinking that so being worried and he returned home and being sad went to his bedroom, and laid on his bed.  Seeing this his wife, asked him that what is the reason and why he was very sadly returned home? as soon he heard that question from his wife, he begot angry, but suppressing his anger, he told the reason why sadly he returned home.   Once again, she asked her husband, that from in which part of the history the king cross- questioned you? as soon he heard that question again from his wife, he thought a second about her, how can she questioning me about literature, and how dare, to ask me a question in history literature? "An illiterate one asking me a question about literature" and “what does she know about history? except cooking in the kitchen and eating” what does know about education? she knew nothing, she is asking me in literature. Thinking that mockingly he flashed a sight at her, and then he told entire story what happened in the kingdom. After thinking for some time, she looked at him with a smiling face, told him that the king asked you a very easy question, yet you have not given right answer to king. Liston Your reply in front of the king was wrong and your explanation also wrong, even though you’re twisting the word, the answer will reach the same and wrong. Because of your Indifference nature you are humiliated by all and have returned home. You may think meanly about me, however I tell the exact history and you memorize the right history and tell the king, then he will give you award or bumper prize. Having said, that she started to narrate the history. “Listen! the period between the 4th and 6th centuries CE is known as the Golden Age of India because of the substantial and the best achievements in the fields of mathematics, astronomy, science, religion and philosophy during the Gupta Empire period. During this period the decimal numeral system, including  the concept of zero, was invented in India. The peace and prosperity created under the leadership of the Guptas enabled the pursuit of scientific and artistic endeavors in India. The Huna was the name given by the ancient Indians to a group of Central Asian tribes. Hunas via the Khyber Pass, entered the Indian subcontinent at the end of the 5th or early 6th century. The Huna Kingdom occupied areas as far south as Eran and Katsambis, greatly weakening the Gupta Empire. The Huns were ultimately defeated by a coalition of Indian princes that included an Indian king Yasodharman and the Gupta emperor, Narasimha Gupta. They defeated the Huna army and their ruler Mihirakula in 528 CE and drove them out from India. The Golden Age of India came to an end when Huna invaded the Gupta Empire in the 6th century CE. As soon he heard the answer from his wife he stunned, and he felt ashamed in front of his wife and he thought a second O God! Really it is changing of the time. The pandit said I thought I am the only highly educated but now I learned that never think belittle anyone. At last, he went to kingdom and he told the answer and he won the reward. Children! We learnt from this story that one should be humble with everybody. We should not insult anybody.

introduction

  In the olden days when the children's sleeping time or when they are free from their homework, the grandmother or some other elderly relatives will teach them, what is virtue, what is its value, and responsibilities through the stories. the children will grow very talented with good knowledge. But in the current day’s the grownup children they learnt to live independently, but they have had no understanding about the eternal virtue’s realities, and its law. Those things should learn from their childhood. So, keeping this in my mind, I have started the bed time stories to young children.   The parents may read these stories in the children’s bedtime. All the stories based on Tamil poet Avvaiyar’s Aatthichoodi and  Valluvar's composition Thirukkural So, I Hope these are valuable stories to all the young children SarojaMani Date: 20th December 2022.
