An eagle was caught in a net spread by the hunter. The hunter caught it, cut off only the wings and tied them with a chain. One of the elders who passed by, took pity on it. He paid the hunter and bought the eagle, which he took home and lovingly raised.
When the wings had grown well he allowed it to fly. When the eagle flies away. At its sight a rabbit appeared. She lifted it as it was and gave it as a gift to the adult who had raised her.
The fox who was watching this said, 'The hunter who has already caught you may catch you again. If you give him this rabbit, he will never catch you again. He will not come to catch you even if you give the rabbit to the big guy or not. Why did you do that? '
"It simply came to our notice then. Even if I give the rabbit to the hunter, he may catch me later. But, the elder saved me when I was in danger. I gave the rabbit as a gift to express my gratitude and loyalty to him. Being grateful to those who helped is a virtuous act, ”replied the eagle.
Justice of the story: The beauty of being good is being grateful without forgetting those who helped in times of danger.
