The Person Pod Series : Who are We ?

 ( Inspiration from Dr. Swati Lodha)

There was a king who mindfully ruled a huge happy empire. He always demonstrated value for progressive people and occurrences. 

One day a portrait carver came to his palace with three beautiful full length human portraits for sale. 

The portraits were mesmerising, created of marble, with great detailing. Eyes, nose, face features, expressions, body structure so amazing that it made them look real.  

The king melted looking at them and decided to purchase one.  So he asked the carver, "What is the cost?". The carver said, "The 1st one cost Rs. 5000, the 2nd one is worth fifty thousand and the third one is two lakh fifty thousand rupees.

 The king was stunned with the price massive difference when all the three portraits looked absolutely the same. He asked his team of ministers to find out why the vast difference in cost. What was it with the potray that cost 2.5 lakh? 

One by one his all the cabinet members checked, touched, felt and smelled each of the portraits trying to identify the difference which had effected the cost so much. None of them could identify the difference. 

Finally, the king called his most intelligent minister and told him to find out the reason for cost difference. This minister had a look at all the three portraits carefully and asked his subordinate to get three small pearls. 

He  put one pearl in one ear of the first portrait. After a few moments that pearl dropped out from the second ear. 

Then he went to the second portrait and put a pearl in his ear. This pearl dropped out of the portrait's mouth in a few minutes. 

After that he went to the third portrait and put a pearl in his ear. This time the pearl did not come out. It synced in. 

The minister then told the king, " Sir, I found the difference. The first portrait listened and took in everything that came from one ear but threw it out from the other"

"The second one narrated to every one around, what ever he heard or saw but did not self imply. Hence both of them dropped the pearl out." 

"The 3rd portrait took in what came and absorbed the learning and experiences from it & did not drop it out like the first two. This was the unique quality which priced him high as compared to the others"
