100 Rupees and 100 Days
There was a king and he had 3 sons. One day king told his sons that I am giving you 100 rupees and 100 days. He didn't tell them what to do but just said: Take this100 rupees and go in my kingdom anywhere you like and spend 100 days as you like.
First Son was intelligent and he used his brain and told himself if I spend 1 rupee each day then i can spend my 100 days in a good way. He lived, travelled, enjoyed variety of foods, made friends and had fun with them. And after spending his 100 rupees and 100 days smartly he returned back home.
Second Son had many desired who spent his 100 rupees within 50 days and his desired increased by time. After 50 days he started cheating people, stealing money from people, lying to people and even hurting many people. And after completing his 100 days he also returned back home.
Third Son noticed how their both brothers spent their 100 rupees and 100 days. He was also willing to spend his time and money like his first brother beautifully. But he had love for his father (the King) and his people in his kingdom. He noticed that the people were suffering due to his second brother. He spent majority of his time and money in giving charity to those who was poor, helping those who was suffering, healing those who was wounded. When 100 days completed, he returned back home.
Once all three sons returned home, the king called all his 3 sons and told to his First son - I name you TRAVELER and sent him again to the kingdom for 100 days and given 50 rupees this time. And he told his Second son - I name you Oppressor and sent him to a Jail for 100 days with no money. And finally called his Third son - He smiled with tears in his eyes and said I name you Saviour and make you a new King.
