The Five Grains of Rice

The-Five-Grains-of-Rice


A rich man had four sons. As he grew old, he decided to give his property to the son who would value the wealth he had earned. He called his sons and gave them each five grains of rice. He said, “I will ask for these grains at the end of five years and I will give my property to the son who would value these grains the most.” Now, the first three sons threw away the grains. They decided to show their father some other grains when he would ask for them. But the fourth son sowed the grains. When the crop was ready for harvest, he harvested it. Later, he sowed more grains from the harvested ones. Within a short span, he became very rich. His father was very happy and proud of him. He gave his property to him as he had used the grains wisely.
Moral: Make the most of what you have.
