Monkey And Elephant Story 🐘 🐒
A monkey and
an elephant lived in a dense forest. The elephant was very powerful. He used to
uproot big trees in one stroke. The monkey was very thin, but he was very agile
and fast. Throughout the day the monkey used to jump on the trees of the
forest.
Both the
monkey and the elephant were very proud of their qualities. The monkey and the
elephant considered themselves better than each other. Because of this, there
was always an argument between the monkey and the elephant.
There lived
an owl in the same forest, who often saw the movements of monkeys and
elephants. He was troubled by the fight between these two. One day the owl said
to those monkeys and elephants, 'In this way no decision is going to be taken
about this fight of yours. Both of you can easily decide through a competition
who is the most powerful of the two of you.'
Both the
monkey and the elephant liked the owl thing. The monkey and the elephant again
asked together, 'What has to be done in this competition?'
The Monkey And The Elephant Story
The owl
said, 'On crossing this forest, another forest comes. Where there is a very old
tree, on which a golden fruit is planted. The one who brings that golden fruit
of the two of you first, will be the winner of this competition and will be
called the most powerful in the real sense.
On listening
to the owl, the monkey and the elephant, without hesitation, went towards
another forest. The monkey started showing its agility. He would reach from one
tree to another in a single jump. At the same time, the elephant started
running fast and uprooted everything that came in the way with its strong
trunk.
Within no
time the monkeys and elephants came out of that forest. A river used to flow
from this forest to the middle of the other forest. Only after crossing it
could one be reached in another forest.
The monkey
hurriedly jumped into the river, but the wave of the water was very strong, so
the monkey started flowing into the river. Seeing the monkey flowing in the
river, the elephant grabbed it with its trunk and threw it out of the water.
The monkey
was quite surprised to see this behavior of the elephant. The monkey thanked
the elephant for saving its life and, accepting its defeat, asked the elephant
to complete the journey ahead.
Hearing this
talk of the monkey, the elephant said, 'I can cross the river. You also cross
it by sitting on my back.'
The monkey
agreed to the elephant and he sat on the elephant's back. In this way both of
them crossed the river and reached another jungle.
Then the
monkey and the elephant together found the tree bearing gold fruit.
At first the
elephant tried to pull down the tree with its trunk, but the tree was too
strong. The tree was not uprooted by the elephant.
Then the
elephant said in despair, 'I cannot pluck this fruit now.'
The monkey
said, 'Come on, I will also try it once.'
The monkey
quickly climbed the tree and reached the branch of the tree where the gold
flower was planted. The monkey plucked the golden fruit and got down from the
tree.
After this,
both of them returned to their forest after crossing the river and gave the
golden fruit to the owl.
After
getting the fruit, as soon as the owl spoke the name of the winner for this
competition, the monkey and the elephant together stopped his talk.
The monkey
and the elephant said together, 'Owl, now we don't need to know the name of the
winner. Together we have completed this competition. We have come to understand
that everyone's quality is different and special in itself. That's why we have
decided that from now on we will never argue on this matter and will live in
this forest like friends.
The owl was
very happy to hear the monkey and the elephant. He told the monkey and the
elephant that I wanted to explain to you that everyone is different from each
other. Different qualities and strengths are what make us capable of helping
each other and everyone has some weaknesses too so it is always best to be
together with each other.
From that
day onwards the elephant and the monkey became friends and they started living
happily in the forest.
Monkey And Elephant Story Moral
We should respect each other's qualities and strengths and live in harmony with each other.
