Magic Bell
A boy named Shiv lived in a village.
He lived with his mother
and younger sister.
He used to graze cattle in the forest
near the mountain.
There was a huge tree.
Shiv used to sit beneath
the tree and sing songs.
He became friends with the birds there.
He kept an eye on the cattle.
He would come back to
the village in the evening...
...and hand over the cattle
to their respective owners.
He would get some money
for grazing the cattle...
...throughout the day in the heat.
Shiv met the household expenses
with the money he earned.
He took care of his mother
and sister with the money.
He bought household essentials
with the money he earned.
His younger sister would
long for good food at times.
She was bored of the simple staple food.
Shiv understood what she
wanted but he was helpless.
He had to save money
for his sister's education.
The next morning Shiv went
to the forest to graze the cattle.
He noticed a woodcutter
cutting the tree...
...under which he sat
and grazed the cattle.
He was worried as well as sad.
But, he got an idea.
Listen to me woodcutter.
Why are you cutting this tree?
I think you aren't aware that the witch
who lives in this tree...
...will possess the
person who cuts this tree.
She'll trouble him.
The woodcutter was
scared and he ran away.
Run! Run!
After the woodcutter
went away from there...
...the spirit of the
tree appeared before him.
It happily announced...
You saved my life.
Therefore I'm very happy.
I gift you this bell as a reward.
What will I do with this bell?
This is not an ordinary bell.
This is a magic bell.
You can get any food you want with it.
But, always remember that you
can ask it for food only once in a day.
Thank you, my friend.
Shiv was very happy as no
one would go to bed hungry any more.
His younger sister would
get food of her choice.
When Shiv returned home in the evening,
He shared the incident
with his mother and sister.
His mother and sister were very happy.
They requested the magic
bell to fulfill their wish.
They ordered the food of their choice,
ate to their heart's content...
...and went to bed.
Next morning Shiv took
the cattle out to graze.
When he reached home in the evening,
he found all the utensils empty.
There was dry flatbread
and pickle for him.
The food that he ate daily.
Shiv was disheartened and angry.
He didn't eat anything and went to bed.
He took away the magic
bell with him the next morning.
When his mother and his
younger sister were hungry...
...they looked for the magic bell.
They searched the entire
house but didn't get the magic bell.
They were sad.
They thought that they lost the bell.
They thought they would
neither get the bell nor food.
They went to bed hungry.
When Shiv returned
home in the evening...
...he took out the
magic bell from his pocket.
He ordered the food of his choice.
His mother and younger
sister were very sad to see this.
His younger sister started
crying and she said...
Brother, you've become selfish.
You weren't like this before.
Shiv was sad to hear this.
He also realized his mistake.
But, he also shared what he felt.
You asked the bell to give you food
but you forgot to keep food for me.
I was tired and went to bed hungry.
I had no other option.
I was sad and angry.
His sister realized her mistake.
They shared food.
How was the story?
It teaches us a lesson.
Always remember this moral.
The moral of the story
is that we shouldn't be selfish.
We must take care
of the needs of others.
Magic Pencil
A boy named Kushal lived in a village.
He loved drawing.
He used pointed stones and small sticks
to draw on wet clay and sand.
He didn't have money to
buy paper and pencil.
He always wished that
he had a pencil with which he could...
...draw beautiful pictures.
He always drew the pictures passionately.
One day when he was drawing
he met an old man.
He gave a pencil to Kushal and said...
You should draw pictures only
for the poor people with this.
If you ever need my help
use this pencil to call me.
After saying this
the old man disappeared.
Kushal was very happy.
He drew a mango with the pencil.
Wow! This is wonderful.
The mango turned into a real mango.
After that he drew a dog.
It also transformed into a real dog.
What's this?
This is a magical pencil.
Thanks a lot, old uncle.
I'll always remember your words.
Kushal drew food with his pencil.
It also transformed into real food.
He drew grains, fruits, clothes
for his parents.
All of them transformed into real things.
Kushal drew the pictures of things
that the poor people needed...
...and gave it to them.
The villagers were very happy
with Kushal as he helped the poor.
The king heard about him.
He called Kushal and ordered...
Make a gold tree for the royal garden.
Give me your pencil.
Your Majesty, you're very rich.
I draw pictures only for the poor people.
The king got angry.
He ordered that the pencil be
snatched from him.
He started drawing a gold tree.
But the gold tree didn't appear.
He told the chief minister
to draw a picture.
But even his drawing didn't turn into real.
The king was furious.
Kushal, listen to me.
You've to draw the picture that
I want you to draw or I'll imprison you.
Kushal thought that
if he disobeyed the king...
...he would put him behind the bars...
...and he wouldn't be
able to help the poor.
He was very smart.
He picked up the pencil
and drew the picture of the old man.
The old man appeared before him.
He tried to reason with the king.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
You don't have dearth of
money and wealth.
But Kushal is trying to make
the poor people happy.
You snatched the pencil from him
but it didn't fulfill your wish.
No one else can bring
the pictures to life.
After observing Kushal's dedication
towards his work and his honesty...
...I gave him the pencil.
The king realized his mistake.
He asked the old man
and Kushal to forgive him.
The old man disappeared.
The king rewarded Kushal.
The moral of the story is that
we should do our work...
...honestly and with dedication.
It's wrong to deceive people
to fulfill our selfish wish.
'The Magical Cap!'
'Sara, a loving girl
stayed in the village of Manipur.'
'She was the only daughter
of a priest named Shivkumar.'
'She loved everyone around her.'
'Irrespective of her age,'
'she helped people
as much as she could.'
'One day, she met an old lady
who seem to be quite sad.'
'She offered to help her.'
'But the old lady said,'
Right now, you are too young to
help me. How will you help me?
'At the time, Sara thought,'
'if I could understand others pain,
then I'll be able to help them.'
'Same day, a magical incident
took place.'
'While returning from school,'
'she saw a cap seller.'
'He had several colourful caps.'
'Amongst all, Sara liked a cap
that was extremely unusual.'
'She asked him for that cap.'
Could you give me this cap?
But right now,
I don't have any money with me.
I'll go home and get the money.
Dear child, I could've
given you this cap.
But all those
who bought this cap so far
has eventually lost.
Moreover, this red cap
somehow comes back to me.
Hence, instead of this
you could buy some other cap.
'But Sara was fascinated
by that cap.'
I want only this cap.
All right.
But you don't pay for it.
You can keep it as a gift from me.
Okay, uncle.
Thank you!
And I give you this guava.
'She happily
put the cap on her head.'
'She could perceive'
'what the cap seller
was thinking after selling the cap.'
'She asked the same to him.'
Uncle, you might be thinking
that I will also lose this cap.
And will eventually
come back to you.
Hey, how did you know
what I was thinking?
Right. This is exactly
what I was thinking.
I think this is a magical cap.
Maybe, it's made for you.
Thank you, uncle.
But what will I do with this cap?
I took it so I could wear it.
Dear child, you are the first girl
to know that it's a magical cap.
At the right time, you will learn
how to use this cap.
This has never happened before.
Okay, uncle.
Bye.
'Sara was happy to have that cap.'
'She wore it on her head
and began marching home.'
'She then saw her neighbouring
old lady who was thinking'
'that due to old age,
she was unable to do more work.'
'But she was hungry
and didn't know what to do.'
'Sara was sad after learning
about the old lady's thoughts.'
'She went home and took
some food from her mother'
'and went to the old lady's house.'
'The old lady was glad to receive
food from the little girl.'
This is what I was thinking,
to get some food
from somewhere and...
You got me this food.
Thank you, dear child.
'Sara's heart was content.'
'This was her second experience.'
'She realised that she could'
'read people's mind
on wearing that cap.'
'But could she
wear that cap all the time?'
'She had to take off the cap while
in school or doing home chores.'
'She had made up her mind'
'she would wear that cap
if anyone needed her help.'
'One evening, she wore the cap'
'and walked towards
the village river.'
'She saw a few men talking
outside her school.'
'She read their minds.'
'They were thinking
to rob the school fee'
'of the students at midnight.
'Sara was very disturbed
after knowing about this.'
'She was wondering
whom to share this with.'
'Without wasting time,
she told her friends about it.'
'Kunal and Arjun,
readily agreed to help Sara.'
'At dusk, the three of them
stood quietly at the school gate.'
'By nightfall, they gradually
entered the school and hid.'
'They set-up traps there.'
'As soon as the thieves
approached the closet for money...'
'They got trapped and tumbled.'
'This means, Sara's
understanding was right.'
'They had informed their
teachers and the cops about it.'
'The cops arrived and
arrested the thieves.'
'The teachers thanked
Sara and her friends.'
'With the help of the cap,
before the robbery took place'
'Sara was able to get
the thieves arrested by the cops.'
'Sara's heart was filled with joy.'
'But then she realised,'
'for how long would
she read people's mind.'
'She would've to find
the cap seller and return that cap.'
'After few days, the cap seller
returned with his box of caps.'
'Sara went up to him
in order to return the cap.'
'The cap seller asked her
the reason for returning it.'
'To which she replied...'
Everyday I help someone
with the help of this cap.
But I'm too young right now.
I would be more happy
if an adult could use this
cap to help the needy.
'The cap seller responded...'
Dear child, I did warn you earlier
that this cap never
waits around with anyone.
Eventually, it comes back to me.
You were the only girl
this cap stayed for this long.
And only you know about
the speciality of this cap.
You helped the needy
after reading their mind.
Which is clear,
that this cap was meant for you.
Always keep this cap safe with you
and help the needy.
'And the cap seller left.'
'Sara kept that cap
safe with her forever.'
