Wood Cutter Story retold
You all know the famous Wood Cutter Story.
To brush up that old story
Wood cutter lost his iron Axe in the river while cutting
a tree , and when he prayed to the River Goddess, she appeared and first showed him
a Golden Axe and asked him if it was his, to which he said "No" and then Riven Goddess showed him
a Silver Axe, and asked him if it was his, again the Wood cutter said " No "
Finally the River Goddess showed him his own Iron Axe and asked him if it was his, the Wood Cutter
happily said, " yes" and the River Goddess was pleased and gave him all the three for his truthfulness.
This was the original story with a moral behind it.
After few years the same Wood Cutter went to a Mela ( Festival ) and lost his wife in the crowd
Initially he thought that she would come back on her own, but she was not.
so once again he went to the River Goddess and prayed and The River Goddess appeared
and first showed him, "Miss World " and asked him if she was his wife,
immediately the Wood cutter said " Yes"
The River Goddess now got annoyed with him and asked him why he was lying
to which the Wood Cutter replied
"if i say No she is not my wife, then you would show me Miss Universe and ask me if she was my wife,
again if i said No, you would show my real wife and ask me if she was my wife,
to which if i say Yes, then you would give me all the three of them
