00:00A woodcutter was cutting wood on the bank of a river.
00:14As he was cutting the wood, his axe suddenly fell into the river.
00:21He got worried and started crying loudly.
00:26The woodcutter started laughing.
00:29What has happened to my axe?
00:33Oh God! My axe fell into the river.
00:37How will I get money now?
00:40How will I feed my family?
00:43Oh God! My axe!
00:46Oh God! My axe!
00:49Then the god of water, Varun appeared from the river and said,
00:54Hey human, what happened?
00:59Why are you crying?
01:04What should I say, God?
01:07I am a woodcutter.
01:09I cut wood and feed my family.
01:15But what should I do without my axe?
01:19My axe fell into the river, God.
01:22Varun said,
01:25Human, don't worry.
01:29I will get your axe right now.
01:33Saying this, Varun dipped his axe in the water.
01:44And got an axe.
01:47Here is your axe.
01:49He said to the woodcutter.
01:52The woodcutter saw that the axe was made of gold.
02:01He said,
02:03No, God.
02:05This axe is not mine.
02:08Varun dipped his axe again.
02:12And got another axe.
02:14And said,
02:15Here is your axe.
02:18The woodcutter saw that the axe was made of silver.
02:25He said,
02:27No, God.
02:29This axe is made of silver.
02:32This is not mine.
02:34My axe was made of iron.
02:37Oh God!
02:39Don't worry about me.
02:41Don't worry about me.
02:44Varun dipped his axe again.
02:47And got another axe.
02:51This time the axe was made of iron.
02:55The woodcutter was very happy to see that.
02:59And said,
03:01This is my axe.
03:04Oh God!
03:06Thank you very much.
03:08Now I will be able to cut wood.
03:11And feed my family.
03:13Thank you very much, God.
03:16Thank you very much.
03:18Saying this, the woodcutter left.
03:21Then Varun called him and said,
03:25Oh human!
03:27You are very honest.
03:30I am very happy with you.
03:34Here,
03:36Along with your axe,
03:38Take the silver and gold axe too.
03:42This is my gift to you.
03:49And like this,
03:51The woodcutter took all three axes
03:54And went home happily.
03:57In the evening, he told this to his friends too.
04:02The friends were surprised.
04:04But they were also happy.
04:05One of them was very greedy.
04:09The next day,
04:11He picked up his axe.
04:13And went to the same place
04:16Where the honest woodcutter's axe
04:19Had fallen into the water.
04:21He climbed the tree and started cutting wood.
04:29And deliberately dropped the axe into the river.
04:36Then he sat under the tree
04:39And started crying loudly.
04:42Oh my axe!
04:46I had only one axe.
04:50Someone please come and help me.
04:54My axe fell into the water.
05:00Hearing his cry, Varun appeared.
05:03He had a golden axe in his hand.
05:07He said,
05:09Oh human,
05:11Look,
05:13This is your axe, isn't it?
05:17The woodcutter was very happy and said,
05:21Yes, yes my lord.
05:23This is my axe.
05:25Give it to me.
05:27This golden axe is mine.
05:29Give it to me.
05:30The next day,
05:32As soon as he went to get the axe,
05:36Varun went into the middle of the river.
05:40And said,
05:42Wait,
05:44Wait there.
05:46You are very greedy and dishonest.
05:50Now you will not get anything.
05:54Saying this,
05:56Varun became invisible in the water.
06:01The dishonest woodcutter had to return home empty-handed.
06:06Being greedy, he lost his axe too.
06:11So children,
06:13From this story, we learn
06:16That we should not be greedy.
06:19And we should always live with honesty.
06:23Because,
06:25Those who are honest get happiness.
06:28That is why it is said,
06:30Greed is a bad omen.
