The Boatman and the Rich Farmer
One night a farmer was on his way back home on a boat. He traded far and wide. He was very rich and owned many acres of land.
Shortly after the boat set sail, it capsised. He was distressed because he did not know how to swim. At that moment a boatman happened to sail by. The farmer seeing him begged to save him and promised all the land that he had in reward. Seeing the earnestness, the boatman saved him and they sailed together. As they crossed the middle of the river, the farmer offered half of the land and the rest he said would be a bare necessity against his wife's rebukes. The boatman did not reply. Again as they reached near the shore, he offered him the one-fourth of his total land and requested the boatman that he would require only a little for himself. As they reached the bank. The farmer reasoned out and said what could be use of a land to a boatman who spends most of his time in the river and offered him only a coin worth rupees five.
One must never cheat others' toil because the power to pay is a privilege given by God.
One must be careful enough to overcome one's greed.
One must check one's:

Mullah Nasiruddin
Long back, there lived a wise man named Mullah Nasiruddin. To explain and rectify men's folly he would sometimes play-act them.
Once he started believing that he is dead. His wife got very worried about him. She tried to convince that he is alive. However, Mullah was obstinate. Often he said?" OH! what?s the use I am dead/5 So, his wife went to a psychiatrist and disclosed her woe. The doctor was clever and immediately conceived an idea. He told her to go back and bring her husband. The doctor suddenly pricked Mullah's finger with a needle. Then the doctor said, "Mullah ! see for yourself, fresh blood is ushing out of your finger. You are alive r? Mullah, sticking to his own despondence replied. "OH ! I discovered a fact today Dead men too have blood.
Many people like Mullah refuse to accept and keep pace with reality. They choose to live in their zone of comfort and refuse to accept any challenges that life offers to them.

The Monkey and the Crocodile
Once lived a monkey on a tree top along the side of river Shipra. Every evening, al crocodile would come to meet him. They seemed to be best friends.
One day the crocodile offered the monkey to have a ride on his back in the river. The monkey readily agreed. Both of them were soon in the river enjoying loud splashes. After some time, the crocodile turned indifferent and hostile to the monkey revealing that he desired to eat his liver and so wanted to kill him. The monkey being clever immediately replied that incidentally he has left it on the tree-top and promised to bring it back. The gullible and foolish crocodile believed him and carried him back. Immediately the monkey jumped to the top of the tree and rebuked the rocodile for his dishonesty.
