1. Story having great value

2. Once upon a time a huge elephant died in the “ Himalaya” forest

3. At that time there was a big flood in that jungle due to heavy rains As the water level goes up, that dead body started to float

4. It flew through the jungle and ultimately came to a river call “Ganga” Then it started to flow through that river.

5. At that time a crow that was starving was flying through the sky searching some food. Suddenly he saw that elephant’s dead body Then it came down and sat on that.

6. It ate the flesh. Then it felt thirsty. Then it used its neb and drank water from the “Ganga” river.

7. After all he thought “what a fool will leave this kind of treasure” Because he can eat when he is hungry He can drink water when he is thirsty And he can stay on top of that dead body.

8. So he decided to stay on that dead body. But though he stayed in the dead body the dead body wasn’t stopped. It flew through the river and ultimately came to the end of the river.

9. Then it entered to the sea. Then that dead body went far away through ocean and reach to a place where any one cannot return again.

10. At that time the dead body became small due to eaten by fishes and washed by the sea water.

11. At last crow end up with a small piece of skin. And that time only he understood that this place is not good to stay any more.

12. Then he flew to north searching for a land. But he was unable to find. Then he went south searching for land. But there wasn’t. Then he went east and west. But he was unable to find.

13. At last he was unable to find that small piece of skin. Then starving he fallen in to the ocean and the terrible fishes broke it into pieces and ate.

14. At that time there was a ascetic (thapasa) living in the "Himalaya" jungle. he had attained a power to see what happened at the past by his meditation. And he also had attained the ability to go through the sky as well.

15. One day he wanted to eat food containing salt. So he came to a village Across the sea.

16. when he was coming he saw feathers of a crow in the middle of the ocean. then he thought how these feathers came this much of distance. because he knew that crow can not fly this much of distance across the sea. then he used power of his mind and saw what happened to the crow.

17. then he saw a great relationship between this crows life and human beings lives.

18. Because when we living we always think of satisfaction of our six sensors. in other words we always try to satisfy our eyes, nose, ears, tongue, body and mind. people always try hard to get more and more money. have you ever seen a person who have satisfied by getting more money?

19. think about world famous people who are known as most richest people of the world. are they satisfied with what they have. if they satisfied with what they have, then why they try for new projects, new developments and new fields to invest money?

20. first you have to understand you are a person who has to be dye. one day will come you can't even stand out from the bed. you have to bare severe pains near your death and in your old life. then even your loved ones can't take part of this pains to give you a relief.

21. Lord buddha has teached a clear path to free from all sufferings lord buddha has shown the path for liberation but you have to try for it when you are strong enough. otherwise you may be too late.

22. Satisfying sensors are not banned. But you should not be like that crow. because he thought that dead body as a safe place. so you have to understand the risk in your future.

23. thank you.
