The King Face-of-Mirror

At the time of Lord Buddha Siddhartha, in India, there were momentous debates held among philosophers and monks.

One day, the King Face-of Mirror, called all the scientists of his kingdom and put on a puzzle before them about the meaning of life.

The scientists arrived and no sooner they heard the question by the King they started quarrelling, every one arguing in his own way, shouting:

-I know what is true; all the rest is untrue/mistaken!

The King roared with laughter then orders his minister to bring all the blind people by birth that he could find in his palace .The minister obeyed the kings order.

This time the King ordered to bring an elephant. The blind people were taken to the elephant. One of the blinds took the tail , another the stomach , another the flank, another the back , another the ear , another the head , another the tusk , another the trunk and so on.

The minister now brought the blind people to the King.

The King asked the group of blind people:

-Have u ever seen an elephant?

- Yes, completely! Answered the blind

-What does an elephant look like?

The one who had touched the leg answered:

-It looks like a big varnished pipe.

-No at all! Answered the one who had taken the tail, it's like a broom.

-It’s like a ball said the on who had touched the root of the tail.

-It's like a drum, exclaimed the one who had felt the stomach.

-No it's like a wall, claimed the one who had touched the flank.

-It's a high and tall table, assured the one who had felt the back.

-It’s a basket claimed the one who had taken the ear.

-No it's a bushel???? Said the one who had touched the head.

-It's a horn replied the one who had touched the tusk .

The one who had touched the trunk said it's a rope.

The King convene the scientists, laughing ”You are like these blind , You think you know all although you have just seen a point and on top of that you show that all the rest is untrue."

Merci encore !

Le roi Face de Miroir

A l'époque du Bouddha Siddharta , il y avait de savants débats de philosophes et de religieux .

Un jour le roi Face de miroir fit appeler tous les savants de son royaume pour leur poser une enigme sur la vérité de la vie .

Les savants arrivèrent et dès qu'uils entendirent la question de roi commencèrent à se disputer ,chacun défendant sa propre idée et criant :

-Je sais ce qui est vrai et tout le reste est faux !

Le roi éclata de rire puis ordonna au ministre d'amener au palais tous les aveugles de naissance qu'il pourrait trouver ds son palais .

Le roi ordonna d'amener un éléphant .On ammena les aveugles à l'éléphant .

L'un prit la queue , un autre le ventre , un autre le flanc , un autre le dos, un autre l'oreille , un autre la défense, un autre la trompe ainsi de suite .

Le ministre amena les avaugles au Roi .

Le Roi leur demanda :

Avez-vous déjà vu un éléphant ?

Oui , entièrement ! répondirent ils tous

A quoi ressemble un éléphant ?

( là je réduis un peu , dc ds l'ordre)

à un gros tuyau vernis

pas du tout , à un balai

c comme un ballon

c comme un tambour

non c comme un mur

c un haute et grande table

c un panier

c un boisseau

c une corne

ct une corde

Leroi convoqua les savants , riant : " Vous êtes comme c aveugles , vous avez aperçu un point et vous croyez tout connaitre , et surtout vous affirmez que le reste est faux !

gt pressée alors g pas bien écris :wink:

merci bp !
