The Unity of the Pigeons
Once upon a time in a lush green forest, there was a flock of pigeons led by their king, Chitragriva. They lived happily, fluttering from branch to branch, filling the air with their cooing songs.
One unfortunate day, a sly hunter spread a net to catch the pigeons. The entire flock, including Chitragriva, got trapped!
Chitragriva, the pigeon king, always wise and calm, addressed his followers, “Dear friends, in times of trouble, we must not lose hope. We are stronger together! On my count, we shall all flap our wings and lift the net into the air, flying away from the clutches of the hunter.”
And so, they did! Working together, they rose into the sky, carrying the heavy net with them.
