Magic Machli Ki Kahani

In today's magic story we will tell the story of the magic fish

A fisherman lived with his wife in a village. He would go out to the river early in the morning and used to cast a net there and catch fish throughout the day. He used to run his house with the money he got by selling all the fish he could catch till evening.

The income was not much. Because sometimes a lot of fish would get trapped, and sometimes very few. Somehow his days were passing by. Even on this he was satisfied and lived his life happily.

But his wife was greedy. No matter how much money he brought home, she was never happy and scolded him. The fisherman used to make every effort to make her happy by working hard and earning maximum money. But could never make him happy.

When the fisherman woke up one morning, his body was burning with fever. But fearing his wife, he took the net and went to the river. For some time he sat in the river casting a net, but not a single fish got trapped in the net. He returned home empty handed.

Seeing him returning empty-handed, his wife started crying. He tried to explain to her that he was not feeling well today. But she did not agree and the fisherman was forced to go fishing again.

Burning with fever, he sat down by putting a net in the river. Even after casting the net for a long time, not a single fish got trapped in the net. Frustrated, he started making up his mind to return, that's why the trap seemed a bit heavy to him.

He was happy that maybe a big fish had been caught. He quickly pulled the net. A goldfish was trapped in the net. The fisherman had seen such a beautiful fish for the first time. He took it in his hand and started looking at it.

Then the fish spoke, “Fisherman brother! I am the queen of this river. have mercy on me. Leave me. If you leave me, I will fulfill your every wish.

The fisherman felt pity on the fish. He left it back in the river water and came back home. Seeing him returning empty-handed again at home, the wife created a ruckus.

The fisherman somehow pacified him and told him about the golden magic fish (jadui Machhli). Knowing the whole thing, his wife got angry that when the magical fish was ready to fulfill every wish, why didn't you ask for anything? He forcefully sent the fisherman to the river and the magic fish

And asked the magical fish to bring food and drink.

The fisherman reached the river and stood on the bank and shouted loudly, "The fish queen! Fish Queen! Come out Listen to my one request.

Shortly there was a stir in the water of the river and the golden magical fish came on top of the water.

"What's the matter, brother fisherman? Why did you call me? Fish spoke.

"Fish Queen! Today there is nothing to eat at home. Me and my wife are both hungry. Can you give me something to eat?" The fisherman said with folded hands.

"Why not?" The fish said, "You reach your home. Food items will reach there.

The fisherman made his way back home. When he reached home, he saw a lot of food and drink kept at the door. He called his wife loudly and showed all those things.

His wife became happy. After keeping all the things inside the house, the fisherman was still sitting when his wife said, "You too have just asked for food and drink." Should have asked for beautiful clothes and expensive ornaments too. Go now and ask the magic fish for clothes and ornaments.

The fisherman did not find it right to go again and again and ask for things from the fish. He said, “Now I have brought so much food after asking for it. Our food needs have been fulfilled. Will ask for clothes and jewelery some other time.

It was to be heard that the wife lifted the sky on her head. The fisherman followed his mind and then went towards the river. There he again called out to the fish, “Machli Rani! Fish Queen! Just come out."

The fish came above the water.

The fisherman said hesitatingly, “What should I tell the fish queen. The wife is asking for beautiful clothes and jewellery. Can you fulfill this demand of his?"

"His wish will be fulfilled. Go bring it back home." Having said this, the fish went into the water.

When the fisherman reached home, he saw that his wife was sitting wearing new clothes and jewellery. On seeing the fisherman, she jumped up happily.

Showing her new clothes and ornaments she said, “Listen! I am looking no less than a queen in these clothes and jewellery. In such a situation, where does it suit to live in this hut? You should do that tomorrow morning ask for a palace from the magical fish.

What would the fisherman say? He remained silent for fear of discord. The next morning the wife picked him up and sent him to the magical fish.

Standing on the bank of the river, the fisherman again called the fish, “Fish queen! Fish Queen! Just come out."

When the magic fish (Jadui Machhli) came on top of the water, the fisherman said, “Fish queen! My wife has spent her whole life in poverty. He has suffered a lot while living in the hut for years. Can you build a palace for him to live in?"

"His wish will also be fulfilled." Saying this the fish went into the water.

When the fisherman reached home, he saw that a luxurious palace had stood in place of his hut. On going inside, he saw that his wife was sitting dressed up.

She was very happy. When the fisherman went to her, she said, "The palace has been found like a queen. But what is the use of being a queen without attendants and all the paraphernalia? Tomorrow you ask for servants and all the things of comfort from the fish.

The fisherman tried to convince his wife. But the wife did not agree. The next day, the fisherman asked for servants and all the amenities from the magical fish (Jadui Machhli). On returning home, he saw his wife resting on the sleeping bed. The servants and maids were engaged in his service.

His wife was very happy. He spent some days very happily. But then a new desire took birth in his mind. One day she started saying to the fisherman, “I have become the queen of this palace. But now I want to be the queen of this whole earth. Go tell the magic fish to make me the queen of this earth.

The fisherman was fed up with the daily desires of his wife and this time it was too much. He refused to go near the fish. On this his wife started fighting. Even on this, when the fisherman was not ready, he threw him out of the palace.

The sad fisherman again went to the river and called out to the magic fish, “The Fish Queen! Fish Queen! Just come out."

The magic fish (jadui Machhli) swam to the top of the water and said, “What is the matter? What is your wife's wish now?"

The fisherman said, “Till now I used to come to you every time with the wish of my wife. Today I have brought my wish.

"Say. What do you want?" Fish spoke.

“I want you to take back everything you have given us till now. I have understood one thing that there is no end to desires.

The more you give, the more my wife will ask. She will never be satisfied and without being satisfied she will never be happy.

The fish said, "May this wish of yours be fulfilled." And she went into the water.

When the fisherman reached his home, the palace had disappeared. His hut had come in its place. On going inside, he saw his wife in tattered clothes.

Seeing the fisherman, she started crying and crying that the palace, wealth, servants, ornaments were nothing.

The fisherman told him to remove the veil of greed from your eyes, then you will see happiness even in this poverty. The more you greed, the more greed will increase. So learn to be satisfied with what you have in life. If you are ready to be happy in whatever I bring with my hard work, then stay with me. Otherwise I am going with the net.

How would the wife live alone? She realized that she was blinded by greed. She has given a lot of sorrow to her husband. She started apologizing to the fisherman. After that she was satisfied with her husband in whatever she got in life.

doing.

(Moral of magic fish story

There is no end to greed. One who is blinded by greed can never be happy in life.
