While the villagers were surprised at their hard work and efforts, they also made fun of them on their fights. Months passed by and the old man fell sick. He talked to his sons to stay united, but none of his sons heard his words. So, he decided to teach them a practical lesson so that they would shed off their differences and stay united. The old man called as his sons. He told them, ‘I will give you a bundle of sticks. Separate each stick and you will have to break each stick into pieces of two. The one who breaks the sticks quickly will be rewarded more.’ All sons agreed. The old man gave a bundle of 10 sticks to everyone of them and asked to break it into pieces. All the sons broke the sticks into pieces in minutes. And again they started to quarrel among themselves as who came first. The old man said, ‘Dear sons, the game is not over. Now I will give another bundle of sticks to all of you. You will have to break the sticks as a bundle, not as separate sticks.’ The sons agreed and began to break the bundle of sticks. Unfortunately, they could not break the bundle. They tried very hard but failed to complete the task. All sons said to the father about their failure. The old man replied, ‘Dear sons, See! You could easily break the single sticks into pieces, but you were not able to break the bundle! The sticks were same. So, if you stay united, nobody can make any harm to you. If you quarrel every time with your brothers, anyone can easily defeat you. I request you to stay united.’ The three sons understood the power of unity and promised their father that whatever be the problem, they would all stay together. Who are the characters in the story?

Fight Among the Fingers by kathavarta Once there was a fight among the fingers. Each of them was fighting, “I am the king of the fingers, I am the greatest, I am the most important”. All of them went to the court and stood in front of the judge for his decision. In the court, the thumb stood in front of the judge and said: “I am the king, because I am the strongest and firmest. Without me no one is able to do work. Hence I am the king”. The judge heard all that. Next the index finger got up and said, “I am the king, because I threaten everyone. I point to things, direct people and show things. Hence I have names like threatener, shower, and pointer.” The judge heard all that. Next, the middle finger got up and said, “I am the strongest and longest of all the fingers. Hence I deserve to be the king”. The judge heard all that. Next the ring finger stood and said, “I am the richest, because I wear a ring made of gold, studded with all the precious gems. Hence I am the king”. Next, the little finger stood up with eyes filled with tears and said, “I am not strong like the thumb. I cannot threaten others. I am very small and negligible. I am very poor and do not wear a gold ring. But when I do Namaskara, there I stand in front. I am lucky to have the first sight (Darshan) of all the great people.” Having heard that, the judge decided that the little finger deserves to be the king of all the fingers. Assignment
