The Tale of the Tiny and the Tremendous: Mooshak & Gajraj

Panchatantra tale on Mitra Laabha (Gaining Friends)

No matter how big or small, friendship is about kindness, understanding, and being there for each other.

Panchatantra tale of mooshak snd gajraj on mitra labha principle

Once upon a time, in a bustling town named Bumblebee, lived a lonely little mouse named Mooshak. Mooshak was always in pain because he had no friends. He would watch the other animals play together, their laughter echoing in his tiny mouse hole. “I wish I had a friend,” Mooshak would sigh, his heart heavy with loneliness.

One day, a new family moved into Bumblebee. Among them was a young elephant named Gajraj. Gajraj was big and strong, but he looked as lonely as Mooshak felt. He was new to the town and didn’t know anyone. “He must be feeling the same pain I feel,” thought Mooshak, his heart going out to Gajraj.

Mooshak gathered his courage and approached Gajraj. “Hello, Gajraj. Would you like to be my friend?” he asked, his voice small but full of hope. Gajraj looked surprised. “But you’re so small, and I’m so big. How can we be friends?” he asked, his voice echoing Mooshak’s loneliness.

Mooshak smiled. “Friendship isn’t about size, Gajraj. It’s about kindness and understanding. I may be small, but I can be a good friend,” he said, his eyes shining with sincerity. Gajraj thought for a moment and then smiled. “I’d like that, Mooshak. Let’s be friends,” he said, his voice filled with relief and happiness.

One day, Gajraj got his trunk stuck in a tree while trying to fetch fruits. The other animals couldn’t help because they were too small. Mooshak, however, had an idea. He scurried up the tree and gnawed at the branch until Gajraj’s trunk was free. Gajraj was grateful and thanked Mooshak for his help. “You may be small, Mooshak, but you have a big heart,” he said, his eyes filled with gratitude.

Mooshak and Gajraj became the best of friends. They played together, shared stories, and helped each other. Their friendship was a beacon of hope in Bumblebee, teaching the other animals that size doesn’t matter when it comes to friendship. Their unlikely friendship became the talk of the town, a testament to the power of kindness and understanding.
