SHORT MORAL STORIES IN KANNADA SERIES
The merchant almost escaped suspicion, but the woman who he had refused to give seeds to betrayed him, and he had to run from that village through a hail of kicks and punches.Īnd that was only the start of the series of ill fortune the merchant had to suffer. When the local villagers saw this, they were furious, and set about finding who had caused the destruction of their crops.
He looked all the way back down the road, and saw that the seeds he had emptied out, had grown into great big weeds which had choked to death all the other plants in the area. "Well, that's gone and done it," thought the merchant, "all I need now is another pile of bad luck."
However, the red jar was filling up faster and faster, and it reached a point where he could hardly empty it before it had filled up again. He just stopped every now and then to empty the red seeds out. It seemed more or less logical, because otherwise the jars wouldn't have much power. He continued on his way, and had many other similar encounters.Īs time went on, the merchant saw that only the red jar was filling up. "What do they want me to do?" he thought, sadly, "I can't just throw away my good luck." The merchant roundly refused, and the woman left, cursing him under her breath.
She ran up to him and asked him for a good handful of seeds. A little later, he met a woman who, seeing his seed jars, must have recognised them. So that's what he did, and off he went, continuing his journey. Then he looked at the red seeds, and thought that the best way to avoid them filling the glass would be to empty them out, right there. Though he wasn't familiar with them, he was sure he could find someone that could sell him several new containers, and so he covered the top of the vessel with great care, being sure not to drop it. Expectantly, he carefully examined the green seeds the lucky ones. The merchant, thrilled, thanked him for the gift, and hardly managed to hear the traveller’s last words, warning the merchant how difficult it was to use the glasses effectively. The two glasses were joined, and when one filled up, it caused multiple incidents of good or bad luck, according to which type of seed was overflowing the glass. The green seeds brought good luck, and the red seeds brought bad luck. The merchant was somewhat surprised, but the traveller explained to him that these seeds were seeds of luck. "This is exactly what you need: two little pots of luck. "Well, you've just run into some good luck, meeting me," said the traveller. One glass was green, and the other red, and inside each glass were some strange seeds, each the same colour as their glass. They were decorated with strange drawings. Hearing that the merchant was a man of great ill fortune, the traveller opened his knapsack and pulled out a strange-looking device made from two crystal glasses stuck together.
