I saw banana peels (banana skin) under his cot. Then testing his pulse (feeling) I said,” “You must have taken a banana. That is why you have a bad cold. The patient and his father were surprised. How could I tell from his
pulse that he had eaten a banana? In this way using my common sense, I became a very famous doctor. Therefore, son, use your common sense.”

It was a very cool night
And there was no crab in sight.
The fox looked for one

But there was none.
“Where did they go?”
Not even one in sight!
They must be in their holes
If I’m right.”

Thinking so he got ready
(The hunger too made him greedy)
To go in search of a crab hole
And he straightened his tail like a pole.
Inside the hole his bushy tail he pushed
The crab, he thought, it slightly missed.
He waited long for a sweet pull
But for long there was none at all.
Finally, he pulled out his tail
But the crab was inside he could smell.
So he changed his plan and called “Brother Crab,
Let’s some song and dance have.
The weather calls for such merrymaking
What is life without dancing and singing ?”
The crab well understood
The fox’s real mood.
Thought he to himself ‘Am I a fool ?’

And answered from his hole :
“Who is going to sing and dance
In such weather cool?
I’ll rather eat and sleep well
in my cozy little hole.”

2. Once the people of the village wanted to celebrate their temple festival. The festival could not start till the temple flag was put up. The temple had the flag, but no flagpole. So the villagers went to the forest and made a fine flagpole out of a tall tree. The flagpole was too heavy for the villagers to carry. And so Mahagiri brought it to the temple. The villagers also wanted the elephant’s help to fix the flagpole in the ground. They had already dug a hole in front of the temple.

The villagers were angry and they shouted at the mahout. Mahagiri could not stand the noise any longer. He threw away the flagpole. And the mahout was also thrown off. The people became so frightened that they ran away for their lives.
4. Mahagiri was now alone. He moved to the hole and went down on his forelegs. He put his long trunk into the hole and gently picked up a kitten ! The little cat had been hiding in the hole. The people had been watching all this. They now knew why the elephant had not obeyed the mahout’s orders. He did not like to kill the kitten. Mahagiri then placed the flagpole into the hole and held it straight with his trunk. Everyone at the temple gave sweets and fruits to the elephant.

5. How do these baby elephants learn all these ? Mainly through instructions, praises and punishment. Learning starts from food. Elephants are fond of banana and sugarcane. The trainer raises a piece of sugarcane over the head of a baby elephant. The baby elephant raises its head to eat the sugarcane. At this time the trainer says ‘salam’. He does this many a time. In this way the baby elephant learns to raise its head when the trainer says ‘salam’ without giving sugarcane. The baby elephants are praised and given food when they act according to instructions. If they do not, they are punished.
6. The Karagudi trained elephants are in great demand. The circus people need them. In circus shows, the trained elephants salute, ride bicycle and dance to music. The temple people need them. The cinema people also need them to act in films. One such very popular film is “Hathi Mera Sathi”.
