   Once upon a time,there was aforest located next to an inland sea of Benares City

  At the midst of the forest, plenty of Toddy Palms grew in naturally mixing-up with the Bel Trees.  And the
place happened to be the favorite spot of a little rabbit to take its regular daytime napping.

  The little rabbit left for its favorite spot and fell into slumber instantly. And due to being over-replete with food causing its fancy run wild. The rabbit started indulging an idea of the earth crumble.

 This time, it happened that while the rabbit was dozing off, a bel fruit dropped from its branch next to
the point the rabbit was curling.

  The sound of the bel fruit hitting the dry palm leaves on the ground startled the poor rabbit to wide awake.
The rabbit became panic-stricken and totally unable to think of any rational reason which causing the sound
but charging itself off the spot with frightened scream.

  All other rabbits upon hearing the shout that ‘THE EARTH STARTS CRUMBLING!!’ without making any contemplation, tried to run as fast as possibly away from the place, that immediately creating a chaotic scene. The huge helter-skelter was eventually moving across the forest.

  So shouting aloud, all of the alarmed rabbits made forward in high speed. The riotous commotion struck terror into all animals’ heart.

Upon hearing that the earth starts crumbling, all animals took to flight for fear of death.
At another quiet part of the same forest, it was the habitat of a great lion, the King of the jungle.
