Akbar was quite disturbed and tensed about his son’s bad habit of sucking his own thumb. He tried a lot to cure this habit, but nothing worked. So he summoned a saint in his courtroom for help. After listening to the problem, the saint told that he would come after a few days with a solution and left. This behavior of the saint made Akbar angry but after few days when the saint came back, he simply explained the boy about the consequences of his bad habit and the boy promised never to do it again. Angry Akbar and other courtiers decided to punish the saint for his past behavior but like always Birbal explained the bigger lesson in it.

There is only one pretty child in this world and every mother has it.

Birbal was an honest and religious person. He worshiped God daily without worship. This gave him moral and mental strength. He often used to say that "Whatever God does for the good of man, sometimes we feel that God does not cast his blessings on us, but it does not happen. Sometimes even his boon," People sit around forgetting to understand a curse. He gives us slight pain so that we can avoid great pain. "

But one courtier did not like such things as Birbal.

One fine day while the proceedings were going on in the court, Akbar noticed that everyone had conflicting thoughts to the same question and they were unable to come to a consensus. He started pondering upon the fact that why can’t everyone think the same. The confused king asked Birbal if he can explain to him why everyone always thinks differently and can never think on the same lines? Birbal politely replied that at times people do think the same depending on what the problem is. When Akbar asks Birbal to prove it, Birbal comes up with an idea that requires all the citizens of the kingdom to carry out a specific task which will prove his point for good.

In this tale Birbal helps the loyal gardener who was thrown in to the prison for the mistake he did not commit.
