Courage –
In ancient India there was a saint {
Rishi} named Mudgal.Because of his hard prayers and Brilliance he was respected
among people.He was invited to the Kingdoms by kings for suggestions about
important matters.He was a saint but he liked “Skill of Lathi “{ A type of
basic exercise and self protection },He had have a strong body because of such
exercise,and he was courageous as well.
Because of good suggestions to the
kings ,he used to get rewarded ,received cows .This way he had have one
thousand cows.He used to drink milk,butter milk,eat butter,or some times “Kheer”{Rice
pudding}
There was a big bustling in his
aashram ,while cows used to go to the jungle for grazing.Those cows were quite
healthy.
Thefts were also very common those
days like today.They kept eye on cows,but because of the guards they could not
do any thing.
One day when cows were closed in the
Barn and guards and were busy doing
their personal works,Rishi was not in the aashram,Thieves got the chance and
they took all the cows ,they left an old bullock only.
After two hours when Rishi Mudgal
came back he saw the barn empty and only an old bullock was standing there.
Rishi thought the thieves can’t reach
far away as Rishi himself was absent only for two hours so they can be caught if searched.So I must chase them.A bullock
cart was standing ,He was just thinking to chase,but then he thought ,how the
cart can be ridden with only one bullock.
But he was quite strong by the effect
of {Tapobal}hard prayers ,so he tied a wooden log in place of another bullock and
rode the cart.People were looking surprisingly at him.After some time he
reached near the thieves.He challenged the thieves ,If you have courage accept
my challenge and defeat me in “Lathi Art” otherwise leave the cows and run
away.
Thives got surprised seeing him there
with bullock cart with one bullock and one wooden log ,but still they accepted
his challenge and Pounced ,Rishi Mudgal was very confident ,he hold the lathi
with both the hands and moved it with full force,and attackd hard,his hitting
,hurt some body’s head,some body’s nose,some one was now broken hand and some
one was broken leg,some one lost all teeth.Most of the thieves fell down on the
ground,and others ran away.
Now Rishi was coming back with his
one thousand cows,When the guards and other people saw him coming back with one
bullock and one wooden log’s cart,all cows they got surprised.
One of his pupil said,”It is not a
wooden log ,it is Rishi’s courage and the effect of his “Tapobal”{Effect of
hard prayers.}
