  Arya Demon Chanting Hymns: Tenali Ramalinga clearly understood that Thathacharya was furious on him.  He is just a court poet, while Thathacharya is the royal family teacher and priest.  If Ramalinga tried to confront directly with Thathacharya, that might ruin him similar to the situation, a lamb smashing her head when it collided with a mountain to knock it down.  Analyzing all the situations in detail and taking comparison of the strengths, Ramalinga decided to encounter Thathacharya with intelligence and not directly waging a war in the open.  Since then, Ramalinga started enquiring about the weaknesses of Thathacharya.  In this process, one day Ramalinga managed to speak in isolation with Thathacharyas night watchman Bhadrudu.  Carrying a small package in hand, Ramalinga addressed him, Hey you, Bhadrudu! If you can give me a small information, all the 100 Varahas in this package will be yours.  Bhadrudu’s eyes sparkled on hearing ‘100 Varahas’.  It was equal to his two months sa

The Tiger and the Traveller

One day the villagers caught a tiger by setting a trap, and placed him inside a cage. They placed the edge by the side of the road for the people to see the wicked tiger who had so far killed many cattle and children by suddenly attacking the villagers.

The tiger was now in real problem. He was not given any food nor any drink. He requested each and every passer­by to release him, promising that he would not kill his rescuer. But no one believed the ferocious animal.

At last, a kind traveller agreed to help the tiger, after the latter promised not to kill him. But as soon as the tiger was released, he wanted to kill the man. The man pleaded for life, reminding the animal of his promise. But the animal did not want to listen to his prayer. He said, "I am hungry, and you are my prey. How I can let you go?"

Meanwhile, a fox happened to come there. He heard everything from both the parties, and said, "I don't believe that such a big tiger could fit in that small cage."

The tiger said, "Let me show how I was locked in the cage." So saying, he entered the cage. And the sly fox at once closed the door of the cage, and went away with the traveller.
