A Brahmin named Gautama abandoned his duties and wandered about chasing wealth. Exhausted, he rested beneath a great banyan tree, the home of Rajadharma, king of the cranes and a friend of Brahma.\n\nRajadharma welcomed Gautama as his guest. He fed him fish, fanned him with his wings and lit a fire for him. To help him find wealth, he sent him to his friend Virupaksha, a rakshasa king, who gave Gautama gold and riches.\n\nReturning with his treasure, Gautama stayed again beneath the crane's tree. Thinking he would need food for his long journey, he killed his sleeping friend Rajadharma. When Virupaksha's men learned of it, they seized and killed Gautama; even the rakshasas refused to eat the flesh of one so ungrateful. Later, by the grace of the gods, Rajadharma was restored to life.\n\nLike the healer who cured the tiger, Rajadharma's kindness shattered like a pot dropped on stone. Bhishma ends the tale: for ingratitude there is no atonement.","reflection_ta":"\u0b87\u0bb0\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bae\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b92\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bca\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0ba3\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bb5\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe? \u0b87\u0bb0\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bae\u0ba8\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc8\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc0\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd?","reflection_en":"Are compassion and caution opposed?
