The saint
and the mouse
Once upon a time, there
lived a great saint in a forest. One day, while he was in deep meditation a
small mouse fell on his lap. It had been dropped by a crow who was carrying it
in its beak. “Please save me,” pleaded the mouse.
The saint felt pity for
the poor mouse. He gently lifted the mouse and started nurturing it.
One day, the mouse was
chased by a cat.
He ran to the saint in
fear. With his miraculous powers, the saint turned the mouse into a cat. The
mouse turned cat lived happily with the saint for some time.
But, one day, it was
chased by a dog. The scared cat ran to the saint again. The saint turned the
cat into a dog.
The dog was very
faithful and followed the saint everywhere. One night, while the dog was
lying outside the hut, a tiger growled at it. The dog ran into the saint
trembling in fear. The saint converted the dog into a tiger. The mouse turned
tiger started to live in the forest without any fear.
But, the saint continued
to treat him like a mouse. Whenever the animals in the forest saw the tiger
they said “the mouse has been made a tiger by our saint. So, we need not be
afraid of this tiger”.
The mouse turned the
tiger realized that he will have to live with the stigma of being a mouse until
he got rid of the saint. He went towards the saint to kill him. The great saint
read his thoughts before the tiger could attack him. The angry saint
turned the tiger back to a mouse as it was before.
Moral story: Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
