Long ago, in the beautiful forests of Kishkindha, little Hanuman was a playful monkey. He was not only strong but also very mischievous. One sunny morning, Hanuman woke up feeling very hungry.
“I want something juicy and sweet to eat!” he said, rubbing his tummy. Suddenly, he saw a bright yellow ball in the sky.
“Ooh, that must be a giant mango!” he exclaimed. Hanuman stretched his arms, jumped high, and flew toward the sky.
But as he got closer, he realized it wasn’t a mango—it was the sun! The fiery ball of light shone brightly, but little Hanuman thought it was still a delicious fruit.
“I’m going to eat it anyway!” Hanuman giggled and sped toward the sun.
Just then, Lord Indra, the king of the gods, saw Hanuman flying dangerously close. “Stop, little one! That’s the sun, not a mango!” he shouted.
But Hanuman didn’t listen. He kept flying closer. Indra had no choice but to throw his thunderbolt. “Boom!” The thunderbolt struck Hanuman, and he fell to the ground.
When Hanuman woke up, he was surrounded by gods. Lord Shiva, Brahma, and Indra felt sorry for the little monkey.
“You’re brave, little Hanuman,” said Lord Brahma. “From now on, you will have incredible strength and the ability to fly as high as you wish!”
Hanuman clapped his hands happily. “Yay! But next time, I’ll be more careful before chasing mangoes!”
From that day, Hanuman became the bravest and strongest devotee of Lord Rama, using his powers to help others.
Moral of the Story: Clever thinking and teamwork can solve even the toughest problems!
