TenaliRaman got a new horse and practised riding on it. But the horse was weak. One day the King and TenaliRaman were riding on their respective horses. On seeing TenaliRaman's horse, the king said, "Do you want to ride on your weak horse equally to my healthy horse?"
TenaliRaman said, "Your majesty! if you offer me 100 gold coins I will do a feat with my weak horse that cannot be done with your healthy horse" The king accepted the plan. While they were crossing a bridge there was flood in the river. Suddenly TenaliRaman jumped from his horse and pushed it into the flood water. The Horse went along with the flood in the river. TenaliRaman asked, "Your majesty! will you push your horse into the fllod water as I did?" The king's horse was imported from Arabia. It was of high quality and its value was 1000 gold coins. "Rama! For winning the race you have killed your horse by pushing it into the flood" said the king. The King thought that it would be better to give Tenaliraman one hundred varagans, instead of losing his costly horse. Tenaliraman Said, "Your Majesty! The Horse which could not be sold earlier for 50 gold coins, became worthy now! Without much difficulty - by going to market and selling i got two times gold. I also saved the maintenance costs. As it died in the flood, I feel no sadness for it. The horse which you do not want to lose is less important than my horse which gave me more profit even after death. The King praised TenaliRaman and gave him the agreed amount of 100 gold coins. KR IRS 29224 NB: Why Tenali rama? Common knowledge is neither such a long topic and theory is understood with any use as common knowledge? If there is no mirror and one has a muddy head, hands will say about it, if each touched the forehead; but why a roundabout useless theory?
