Once, a thief used to steal things from people’s houses. One day, he decided to rob pilgrims. He used to sit near a temple and rob the devotees. One day, the thief saw a rich devotee. He became friends with the devotee. One day, he told the devotee that he was going to rob him. The devotee gave all his money to the thief and told him to speak the truth. Now, the thief continued his stealing and one day entered the king’s palace to steal. One of the guards saw him and asked, “Who are you? Why have you come here?” Before he could reply, another guard mistook him to be the king’s guest and left him in the guestroom. The thief was too excited and stole many precious things from the palace. But after that, he stopped stealing and became very rich.
