Who is the richest?
One day King Akbar, in his court, announced a reward of ‘100-Gold coins’ for the correct answer to the question - “Who is the richest”.
There were different replies ranging from “King, wealthy businessmen, Gold-mine owner and what not’.
Since King Akbar was not satisfied by the answer, he asked Birbal to reply to that question.
Birbal took out a coin from his pocket - only Rs. 1
Akbar was shocked with the reply. But Birbal said with a smile—
Jahanpannah, the real owner of this 1 rupee is the richest in the world. ”
Akbar said, "How is that? ”
Birbal spoke—"Jahanpanah, who has only 1 rupee, is the happiest person”.
Real richness is not in the vault, it lies in the satisfaction of the mind.
King Akbar appreciated Birbal’s reply and gave him a gift of 100-Gold coins.
