The Three Fishes

In a pond there were three fishes by name Anagatavidhata, Pratyutpannamati and Yadbhavishya who were friends and used to be together along with many other fishes.

One fine evening some fishermen were crossing the pond and to their surprise they found the pond was full of fishes and planned to catch them. But since the sun was about to set they decided to come the next day and catch the fishes.

On hearing the fishermen’s decision the three fishes got worried. Anagatavidhata has made all the fishes to assemble and said,

“Some fishermen have planned to catch us tomorrow morning, so it will be better if we vacate this place and go to a safer area. I have decided to leave this pond with my family; you too can come along with me.”

Pratyutpannamati agreed to Anagatavidhata’s decision and said,

“I totally agree with you and it is a wise decision.”

But Yadbhavishya did not agree and said,

“The decision of vacating is nothing but foolishness. Enemies are there everywhere and we cannot leave the pond which has been our home for so many years. I have decided to stay here and whoever agrees to my decision can be with me in this pond.”

Half of the fishes decided to stay back and the rest along with Anagatavidhata and Pratyutpannamati left the pond. Next day the fishermen came and caught all the remaining fishes in the pond.

Moral: Wisdom is better than strength
