The Blind Man and the Elephant

Blind Man And Elephant

      There were 5 blind men, all 5 of them were very curious about learning everything they had a curiosity of knowing things because of some reason, they had never seen an elephant in their life but they had heard about the elephant, that elephant is a huge and very friendly and loving animal.

      Hence all of them become curious to know how exactly elephants look. One day they all come to know that there's one man who stays in the village near them has an elephant. So they all go to that man's place, when they reach there they couldn't find the owner of an elephant. But they hear the sound of an elephant, so all five of them go near to that elephant and start touching him so that they can know how exactly the elephant looks.

The Blind Man and the Elephant

      First man touches the elephant's stomach, after touching the elephant's stomach. The first man came to the conclusion that the elephant looks like a Rough Wall.

      Second man touches Elephant tail and after touching the tail, he says to the first man that you are wrong. The elephant actually looks like a long rope.

      Third man holds an elephant's trunk and makes a conclusion that the elephant looks like a big strong snake.

      Fourth man holds elephant Mammoth and comes to the conclusion that all three men are wrong actually elephant looks like a big strong spear.

      Fifth man holds elephants ears and says that you all are wrong actually elephants look like a big hand fan, fans which were used in old age.


       All five of them starts fighting on how exactly elephant looks they all start thinking that how the opposite person is so stupid, how can they be so wrong about an elephant. They were in the middle of their argument that suddenly elephant's owner arrives there. All five of them start asking that owner about who is wrong, how exactly the elephant looks? to them. That owner replies that you all are right as well as wrong. He says that with your limited knowledge you all described only one part of elephant properly, but if you'll have tried harder than you'll have known how exactly elephant looks and you all must have realized that you all are right.

We can learn two things out of this story:

1. Be an Ignorant.
2. Understand other's perspectives before assuming them wrong.

      Because maybe you both can be right, see most of the people think that whenever they learn something from someone or from any experience they feel that they are only right and the opposite person is wrong. Saying someone wrong by having half knowledge is as stupid as touching the elephant's tail and saying.
      Today many people learn maximum things from Facebook, WhatsApp or any other social media or other news channels after which they feel know everything and they have a lot of knowledge, but actually taking knowledge only from such source is ignorance because maximum time people show or tell you things on the basis of only one perspective but if you take knowledge from books and different sources and mentors only then you'll understand different-different perspective only then you'll know the actual reality, but no one wants to do it, no one wants to put an extra effort or time .
As per research, India comes as first in terms of ignorance and as per me, it is the biggest reason we are lacking behind.

I want people to become fond of reading so that they can understand the different perspectives.
