Story Outlines: A Brahmin was carrying a goat – three knaves made a plan – stayed at

the goat.
Three Knaves Fool a Brahmin
One day, a Brahmin named Vishwanath Sharma set out for the livestock
market at a distance of about 10 kilometres to sell off his goat. Three
knaves saw the Brahmin and presumed him to be an idiotic person. They made a
plan to get the goat with trickery. They moved faster than him and stayed at
different
Places. When he passed by the first knave, he commented – “My goodness!
A Brahmin is carrying a dog!” He ignored his comment and moved on. Going some
distance further, another knave commented the same. He became doubtful, but
moved on. The third knave made the same comment and laughed heartily. The
Brahmin became confirmed that the animal on his back is not a goat, but a dog.
He threw away the goat and returned back. Thus, the three knaves took the goat
away happily.
Moral : Never believe a
stranger fully.
