The King's Humbling Experience: A Lesson in True Respect Story Line

The king came to Nagavala in disguise at night. Two bodyguards also went along.

Suddenly there was heavy rain and wind. The sky darkened. The king left his guards and went astray.

There were cars everywhere, a small hut was seen at a distance. A faint light was also coming from it. 

The king quickly walked towards it Inside was no one but a man in rags. 

When the king entered, he sat without any temptation.

Even though he was in a different guise, the king got a little angry that he was sitting there without paying respect.

"Empa! I came to your house, and you left without even a greeting?" He said
He replied, "You are the one who has entered the shelter of my house. 

Why should I salute you?" He said.

The king could not bear this. He always carries a bundle of gold coins with him on the move.

He showed it to him and said, "See? How big I am? Will you say hello to me now?" he said.

And he replied, "How is it that you keep a bundle of gold coins even from a poor side?
Saying?" he said.

The king angrily took a coin from it and threw it at him, "Will you say hello now?" He said.

Without touching the coin he said,"Shall I say hello to you by folding a wad of coins and tossing in a similar coin?"

The king became even more furious. He divided half of the package and asked, "I gave you half of it. Can you say hello now?"

With a gentle smile he said, "Be as close as you can be! Now you and I are equal. Why should I respect you, who are equal?"

Rage blinded the king. He threw the remaining bundle to him and said, "I have given everything I had. Say hello now."

He smiled and said,"Now you don't have anything. But where is a bundle of gold? You want to greet me now?" He said.

The king was speechless No matter how much is given, the human heart is never satisfied. Eternal respect is not something that money can buy. 

Give true love to others. That will come back to you many times over.
