Two friends Nakula and Sohan lived in a village. Nakula was very religious and considered God very much. While Sohan was very hardworking. Once both of them bought a bigha land. Due to which he wanted to grow his crop and make his home.
Sohan used to work very hard in the field but Nakula did not do anything but went to the temple and prayed to God for a good harvest. Likewise, time passed. After some time, the crop of the field was ripe and ready.
Both of which were taken to the market and sold and they got good money. On coming home, Sohan told Nakula that I will get more of this money because I have worked hard in the field.
Hearing this, Nakula did not say that I should get more of your money because I prayed to God only then we got a good harvest. Nothing is possible without God. The two reached the head of the village about the distribution of money.
After listening to both of them, the chief gave them both a bag of rice in which pebbles were found. The chief said that tomorrow morning you both have to separate rice and pebbles from it and then I will decide who should get more of this money.
Both went to their house with a sack of rice.
Sohan woke up overnight and separated rice and pebbles. Nakula went to the temple carrying a sack of rice and prayed to God for it.
The next day, Sohan took away as much rice and pebbles as he could and went to the chief. The chief was happy to see that. Nakula took the sack of Vaisi and went to the chief.
The chief asked Nakula to show him how many rice you cleaned. Nakula said that I have full faith in God, the rice must have been cleaned. When the sack was opened, the rice and pebbles were the same.
The zamindar told Nakula that God also helps only when you work hard. After this Nakula too started working hard in the field like Sohan and this time his crop was better than before.
Lesson: We learn from this story that we should never sit on God. We must work hard to achieve success.
Very Nice Story
