HEALTH IS WEALTH
Once up on a time there lived a kind-hearted king. But the people were not happy with their king because the king was very lazy and would not do anything other than eating and sleeping. He spent days, weeks and months in his bed either eating or sleeping . Thus the king became very fat . The people started to worry about the king. One day , the king realized that he couldn't move his body. His enemies called him ' fatty king' , 'bulky king' etc. The king invited expert doctors from various parts of the country and offered them rewards to make him fit. But nobody can help the king. The king spent a lot of money for this, but it is of no use. One fine morning a holy man visited the country . He heard about the king and informed the minister that he could easily help the king. Minister requested the king to meet the holy man.The holy man resided at a distant place from the palace. The king asked the minister to bring the holy man to the palace, but the holy man refused. After two days the king met the holy man at his residence . The holy man complimented the king saying that he was a good ruler and soon regain his health. He asked the king to come on next day. The king was unable to walk even a few steps on the road . But his followers helped him to reach the residence of the holy man . But the holy man was not there and his devotee requested the king to come and meet on next day. The same was repeated for two weeks. The king never met the holy man and never had any treatment . He realised the reason why the holy man asked him to reach his residence by waking. Very soon , the king regained his health and the people were very happy in his kingdom.
