Life as a king
♚A long back ago, there is a king in Magadha called Ugantheran who ruled
that country. He wanted to rule the country as best as he could but he failed in his
aim. He had a confusion about his ruling so he called out his Royal Counselor and he
wanted a solution from him for the confusion. The Royal Counselor advised to visit a
sage in the border of the country. King Ugantheran immediately visited the
sage, the sage was meditating
under a neem tree. After some time the sage opened his eyes and saw the king.
As the king shared what had happened in the palace. The sage
asked, “How did you get here by?” for that the king asked “I used a horse to
get here by and why are you asking?”. You have been came by a horse of three types.
v First one, the horse should have made you travel by itself,
Ø Second one, the horse rider have brought you here,
§
Last one, you
had travel here by your control of the horse.
1.
The first one
means that the horse could have gone anywhere it could been as it has the
control of itself.
2. The second one reminds that the horse rider only knows the way he goes
by.But
3. The last one is what it describes a king, as he could control the
country as well as the horse which is in his country as the mindset of king
should be clear.
At last, the king understood what the sage told about and realized his
mistake about his mindset and ruled the country happy as he could.
