Ekta Mein Bal Hai Story in English
A farmer lived in a village. He had four sons. The farmer was very hardworking. This was the reason that all his sons also used to do all their work with full hard work and honesty, but the problem was that all the sons of the farmer did not get along with each other at all. They used to fight among themselves on small matters. The farmer was very worried about this quarrel between his sons. The farmer tried many times to convince his sons about this, but his words had no effect on the four brothers.
Gradually the farmer grew old, but the series of fights between his sons was not ending. In such a situation, one day the farmer came up with an idea and decided to remove this habit of fighting among his sons. He called out to all his sons and called them to him.
As soon as they heard the farmer’s voice, all the sons reached their father. He could not understand why his father had called all of them together. Everyone asked the father the reason for calling him. The farmer said- Today I am going to give a task to all of you. I want to see who among you can do this work well.
All the sons said in unison – Father, whatever work you want to give, give it. We will do it with full hard work and honesty. Hearing this from the children, the farmer said to his elder son, ‘Go and collect some wood from outside’. The farmer asked his second son to bring a rope.
As soon as the father spoke, the elder son went out to bring wood and the other son ran outside to bring the rope. After some time both the sons came back and gave wood and rope to their father. Now the farmer told his sons to tie all these sticks with a rope and make a bundle. Following his father’s order, the elder son tied all the sticks together and made a bundle.
After the bundle was ready, the elder son asked the farmer – Father, what do we have to do now? The father said smilingly – ‘Children, now you have to break this bundle of wood into two parts with your own strength.’ Hearing this from the father, the elder son said, ‘This is the work of my left hand, I will do it in minutes. The second son said, ‘What is there in this, this work will be done easily.’ The third son said, ‘No one except me will be able to do this.’ The fourth son said, ‘This work can be done by any one of you. No, I am the strongest among you all, no one else can do this work except me.
Then everyone started trying to prove their point and once again a fight started between the four brothers. The farmer said – ‘Children, I have not called you all here to fight, but I want to see who among you can do this work well. So, stop fighting and break this bundle of wood. Everyone will be given a chance for this work one by one.
Saying this, the farmer first handed over the bundle of wood to his eldest son. The elder son tried hard to break the bundle, but failed.
After failing, the elder son handed over the bundle of wood to the second son and said, “Brother, I have tried, I will not be able to do this work, you just try and see.”
This time the bundle of wood was in the hands of the second son. He also tried his best to break that bundle, but the bundle of wood did not break. After failing, he gave the bundle of wood to the third son and said, this work is very difficult, you also try.
This time the third son also tried his best, but the bundle of wood was very thick. For this reason, even after applying more force, he was not able to break it. After a lot of hard work, when he could not do it, he finally handed over the bundle of wood to his youngest son.
Now it was the younger son’s turn to test his strength. He also tried hard, but like all the brothers, he too was not successful in breaking that wooden bundle. Finally, defeated, he threw the bundle of wood on the ground and said – ‘Father, this work is not possible.’
The farmer smiled and said, ‘Children, now open this bundle, separate its sticks and then try to break it.’ All four brothers did the same. This time everyone took one wood each in their hands and broke it easily.
The farmer said- ‘Children, all four of you are also like these sticks. As long as you stay together like these sticks, no one will be able to harm you, but if you keep fighting, then like these lonely sticks, you will break easily.’
Hearing this from the farmer, all the children now understood what their father wanted to explain to them. All the sons apologized for their mistakes and promised that they would never fight among themselves again in life.
Moral of the Ekta Mein Bal Hai Story:
Strength in Unity The story tells us that unity is the greatest strength. If we remain united among ourselves, then no matter what difficulty comes, it can be faced easily together. At the same time, if we fight with each other and live separately, then even the smallest problem can cost our lives.
