There lived a lion in a forest.  He was very powerful.  He used to kill animals while walking.  That's why everyone was afraid of him.  One day all the animals of the forest called a meeting and had some advice among themselves.

The next day, on behalf of all the animals, a fox approached the lion and said, "Sir!  You are the king of the jungle.  We want that you do not have any problem in hunting, so every day one of us will keep coming to your service.

The lion said, "I agree with your condition, but keep this in mind.  Any day my meal is late, I will kill all the animals.

All the animals said, "Oh my lord!  We accept your condition."

After the settlement, all the animals happily returned to their homes.  Every day, every animal on its turn started going to the lion.

One day a rabbit's turn came.  The rabbit was going towards the lion's cave.  Saw a well in the middle.  He looked into the well.  He figured out an idea.

The hare slowly approached the lion.  The lion was sitting red with anger.

The lion said to the rabbit, "Why the little rabbit!  Why did you come so late?  Aren't you afraid of me?"

The rabbit said, "Sir!  Don't be angry  Give me whatever punishment you want.  But first listen to me one thing.

The lion roared - "Speak, what to say?"

The rabbit said, "Sir!  I left home on time.  But on the way another lion met.  He just stopped me."

“He was saying that from today he is the king of this forest.  We all animals are under him."

"But I somehow escaped from there and came to you."

The lion got very angry, shouting and said, "Okay!  His courage.  Come with me, I'll fix that now."

The hare started walking ahead of the lion to show the way.  He took the lion to the same well.

The rabbit said, "Sir!  That was it just now.  Looks like your fear is hiding somewhere.  I see that it is not hidden in this well.

Saying this the rabbit started peeping into the well.  After peeping into the well for a while, the rabbit said, "Your Majesty!  The lion is hiding in this well.  Come see for yourself."

The lion started peeping into the well.  He saw his reflection in the water.  He considered his shadow to be another lion.

The lion roared loudly.  The sound echoed in the well.  He heard his own voice back.  So the lion was convinced that it was the voice of another lion.  So he angrily jumped towards her shadow and drowned and died.

The rabbit returned home happy.  He called all the animals and narrated this incident.  Hearing the news of the death of the lion, all the animals started dancing and jumping with joy.  Together they accepted the rabbit as their king.

He told all the animals, "What we cannot do with strength, we can do it with our mind."
