A Strange Performance
A man claimed his goat could sing. Birbal asked it to perform—it only bleated.
Birbal’s Humor
“Perhaps it sings only in the presence of spiritual music.”
Akbar’s Laughter
“Then let us be cautious of exaggerated claims.”
Lesson to Be Learned
Boasting without substance is like noise without melody. Let your actions sing louder than your words. Devotion, not performance, pleases the Lord.
