"Pachatantra"

Panchatantra

This story is a fable. The fable shows how a good governor is supposed to be and the way it should think. In the fable the governor is a lion who is selfish and only thinks about his own needs. A wise rabbit tricks him in order to free all the animals from this tyrant.

The main message of this story reflects how small and wise actions can change difficult situations in life. For example even though the rabbit was a small creature and also weaker in comparison with the lion its intelligence made him bigger and stronger than the lion.

It’s amazing how if we believe in ourselves and in our beliefs we can make such a big difference in the world. All we need is confidence, optimism, faith, and we will be capable of accomplishing the things we want the most for example our goals.

Other teachings we can get of this fable are the importance of being humble in all situations, how vital it is for a leader to always treat and worry for the well being of his or her people before his own. They should keep in mind that everything you do always will come to back to you and wisdom always overcomes strenth.

We can relate this fable to real life in a country like Guatemala were selfish, greedy , and corrupt leaders never worry for their people and the only thing they care for is their pocket and how important it is to treat the way you want them to treat you. If you don’t follow this you might find yourself in uncomfortable situations due to your lack of morals. An example of this is the lack of approval and respect the Guatemalan people has to their government.
