For Saving A Little, Don’t Lose Much
Long long ago, there was a destitute that collected one thousand ‘Kaarshaapana’ through begging. He proceeded towards his house along with his friends. On his way, he converted one ‘Kaarshaapana’ into ‘Kaakini’. He kept spending those ‘Kaakinis’ for food etc. Now, he had only one ‘Kaakini’ left. Unfortunately, he forgot it on his way. Proceeding further, he remembered the ‘Kaakini’ he had forgotten. He had a bag of ‘Kaarshaapanas’ with him. He buried it in the ground and went back in search of his one ‘Kaakini’.
But someone had already lifted that ‘Kaakini’. He returned back empty-handed. And to add to his grief, someone had dug up and found the bag of ‘Kaarshaapanas’ and had run away with it. The destitute was deprived of his entire treasure.
Just to save a little, the destitute lost all his savings. Had he thought a little more deeply, he would not have had to lose his wealth.
