Once upon a time, there lived a wealthy man. He was very inhuman to poor people. He kept a servant named John. John used to work hard to serve him, yet the wealthy man was never pleased with his services. He made John do the hardest of tasks and gave him little money in return.
One day, a king was passing through the village. He saw the pathetic condition of John. He thought of teaching a lesson to the wealthy man. Next day, he called up the wealthy man at his palace and told him to work there for a few days, as there was a dire need for workers. The wealthy man agreed. The king dealt him in the same manner in which the wealthy man dealt his servant. He was made to do hardest of tasks and paid very little money. Now the wealthy man realised his mistake. He repented for treating John with cruelty. The king told him that one should deal with others in the same manner in which one would want to be dealt with.
Moral : Deal with others in the manner you want others to deal with you.
