व्यसने मित्रपरीक्षा
😄माध्यमभाषया उत्तरत।
१) ‘स नरः शत्रुनन्दनः’ इति वचनं कथायाः आधारेण स्पष्टीकुरुत।
The lesson व्यसने मित्रपरीक्षा from the मित्रलाभः section from Hitopadesh, a compilation of didactic stories by Narayan Pandit sheds light on the fact that the test of a true friend is done in the times of calamity.
The deer who blindly trusted the jackal without paying heed to the timely advice given by the crow about not trusting an unknown person at the first go found itself trapped in the net laid by the field owner when he observed the deer eating corn in his field regularly. The deer realised that the jackal had cheated it, when its cry for help was turned down with an flimsy excuse.
When the crow came looking for the deer, the deer admitted that- as he had disregarded the crow’s advice, he had met with his untoward calamity. The trapped deer had indeed become the cause of joy/ happiness to its real enemies i.e. the shrewd jackal and the field owner, who were awaiting for this chance. Had the deer listened to the crow’s advice, he would not have met with this situation.
Thus, the deer proved himself as शत्रुनन्दन i.e. the one who pleases the mind of his enemy.
२) काकेन कः उपायः युक्तः?
The lesson व्यसने मित्रपरीक्षा from the मित्रलाभः section from Hitopadesh, a compilation of didactic stories by Narayan Pandit sheds light on the fact that the test of a true friend is done in the times of calamity.
The crow, who was the true friend of the deer, came to its help when the deer was trapped in the net laid by the field owner. The crow then suggested his friend that it (deer) should lie still and pretend to be dead. It should fill up it’s stomach with air and stay still and silent without moving it’s legs. The deer did so. The field owner thought that the deer is certainly dead; so he released the deer. As soon as he did this, the crow gave a signal to the deer and the deer ran as fast as it could.
Thus, the crow’s wisdom and true friendship saved the deer’s life.
