Dedication
Long ago, in a village there lived 2 brothers. The elder one has got wisdom in studies. He had read many books . He was giving lecture to people on how to lead a healthy life. He used to say his lecture with lots of examples he had read in books. People liked his lectures. They used to relate their life with the examples given by elder brother.
Younger brother was not interested in all these things. He could not find a suitable job to look after his family. He got jealous of his elder brother's popularity. He thought even he will follow the same path as his brother. He started reading books and noted down several examples also.
One day , he also started giving lectures like his brother. Though in beginning people were coming to his lecture, the number of people soon became less. Elder brother still giving lecture to packed audiance. Younger brother could not stand this.
One night, he came with burning torch in his hand to his brother's house. Brother and his family were out of town. Younger brother thought it is the right time for revenge. He burnt his brother's house. It gave him a slight relief. He came to his house and slept.
Elder brother returned to see his house had been burnt down. He was worrying about the cause. Soon he got strong evidences to prove that this was his brother's work. Elder brother came to younger brother's house and asked him why he has done like that?
Younger brother didnt approve that this was his work. But when shown evidences, he finally agreed. He said because of jealousy , he had done the work. Though he is also giving lectures as his elder brother, people are not listening to his lectures. But they go near elder brother.
Elder brother understood the condition. He said to his brother "If you do any work with dedication ,then surely people recognise your effort. If you do a work because others are doing, you will not taste the success. So start giving lecture with true heart."
Younger brother understood what his brother meant to say. He dedicated himself in his work. Soon , he also bacame famous as his brother.
