The bird and the monkey
There was a group of monkeys in the mountains. During one winter, there were heavy rains. Soaked in the rain, they began to tremble in the cold. The Bird and the Monkey - History of Panchatantra
During this time, some of the monkey found some colorful fruits of Gunja, which seemed to them like embers of fire. In the hope of doing some fire for themselves, they began to beat them.
A bird in a nearby tree was watching the monkeys from above. Considering the vain attempts that the monkeys were busy, he thought to warn them against: "What great fools you are! You are blowing some fruits of Gunja and not embers of fire, you will never be able to make any fire of them."
The Bird and the Monkey - Panchatantra Story Story "What you're doing is a waste of time These fruits will not help you protect yourself from the cold Go and find a shelter in your place You can find a cave or a den where you It will be protected from the rains and the cold winds. "
The monkeys did not like his advice. One of the old monkeys said, "Go and fool yourself, why are you interfering with our task?"
But the bird did not agree. Paying no attention to what the old monkey had said, he flew off the tree and insisted that the monkeys stop what they were doing. The monkey ignored his talk, but the bird refused to stop.
In an effort to persuade the monkeys, the bird came up to explain that their efforts were useless.
Already frustrated by their vain efforts, the monkeys became furious. One of the monkeys picked up the bird and smashed it to the ground. The bird was badly injured.
