Kalaiah was a hunter. He was very brave. Not
that he hunted tigers or bears. He was good at talking about them. When
somebody met him he used to say “look, last night I hunted a bear in a thick
forest. Actually the bear gazed at me. I had no fear. I told the bear to be
ready to go to heaven. I killed it in no time.” That’s what Kalaiah was doing.”
Some people do when they know that they have to
talk and talk only and could do nothing more than that.
Once Kalaiah while he was searching for a bear
in a forest he met a woodcutter and asked
him, “My dear friend, do you have any idea, where I can find the foot prints of a bear ?”
The wood cutter was pleased.
“Why not ? plenty of them,” he said, “Follow me
to the bear’s den.”
The hunter Kalaiah was upset.
“No… No ! friend. Thank you. It is not
necessary.” Kalaiah began to shake with fear,
” I am looking only for bear tracks.”
The wood cutter laughed and went.
