If one person tells a lie-hundred repeat it as true
A rabbit slept under a coconut tree. A big coconut fell
on the ground and exploded with a bang!
Hearing the sound the rabbit woke up, jumped and cried
“The earth is breaking up”! “the earth is breaking up”!
He ran fast and another rabbit joined him. Soon
hundreds of rabbits were running and crying ,”The earth is breaking up.”
A deer heard their cries and followed them, soon a
pig, a buffalo, an ox and a tiger , an elephant joined them too. A lion king
heard their cries and thought, the earth is not breaking up. There is some
mistake. He ran in front of them and roared-“Stop! Who says the earth is
breaking up”.
The elephant said, “the Tiger said.”
The Tiger said, “The ox said.”
The ox said, “the buffalo said.”
The buffalo said, “the pig said.”
All nodded and pointed to first rabbit and then said, “Is
it true the earth is breaking up”? asked the lion.
Yes, great lion, said the rabbit. I woke up from the
sleep and heard the sound of earth breaking up!
The lion said, “Let us go to that place and see for
ourselves if it is true”!
Soon they ran to the coconut tree. When the lion saw
the broken coconut , he said to the rabbit, “You silly rabbit” the sound of
breaking coconut does not mean the earth is breaking up!
They ran to the other animal to explain the mistake.
Moral: When one person tells a lie, one hundred repeat
it as true.
