Prince Goodspeaker had a younger brother named Prince Moon. Their mother died when they were young. So, the king married again. The new queen had a boy named Prince Sun. The queen wanted to make Prince Sun the next king. The king was worried that the queen might harm his elder sons, so he sent them away. Prince Sun loved his half-brothers and so joined them. The three reached a forest. Here, Prince Sun and Prince Moon went in search of water. When both did not return, a worried Prince Goodspeaker went to the nearby lake. Suddenly, a villager appeared. Prince Goodspeaker realised that he was a Naraka and demanded to see his brothers. The Naraka said, “I captured them, as they did not know the teaching of God.” Prince Goodspeaker explained, “Avoiding bad deeds is the teaching of God.” Satisfied, the Naraka released his brothers.
Moral: You can gain respect only by doing good deeds.
