Unity is strength
A farmer had three sons. His sons were not in good terms with one another. They often quarrelled among themselves. So, the old farmer was unhappy with them. The old farmer wanted to teach them a good lesson.
So, he hit upon a plan. He called all his sons and asked them to bring some sticks. According to their father's order, the sons collected some sticks and took them to him. The farmer told the sons to tie the sticks in a bundle.
Then the farmer asked each of his sons to break the bundle. Each of them tried to break the bundle but failed. This time the old farmer asked them to untie the bundle.
The sons did it at once. Then he gave a stick to each of his sons. He again asked them to break the sticks. The sons could break their sticks easily.
Then the farmer told his sons that if they remain united like the bundle of sticks, nobody can harm them. He also warned them if they quarrelled again and remained separate, enemies would break down them like the single sticks. He taught his sons the importance of unity. The sons realized and promised to remain united.

Once upon a time, there lived an old farmer in a village. He had four sons. They always quarrelled with each other. This made the farmer unhappy. The neighbours were also disturbed every now and then for their loud shouts. The farmer tried to bring them into their sense but failed. At last, he thought of a plan.
One day, the sons were quarrelling again and the old farmer heard them. He called them and told them to stop quarrelling at once. His sons listened to him this time. Then he told them to bring four sticks and some rope. The sons were surprised, yet they did so. The old farmer then tied the sticks together with the rope and said to his sons, “Now, try and break this bundle of sticks.”
The four sons tried one after another, but couldn't break the bundle. Then the farmer untied the sticks and gave one stick to each of his sons. Then he told his sons to break the sticks. This time, they all broke their sticks easily. Then the old farmer said to his sons, “You are like these sticks. When you are united, you are strong. But when you are alone, you are weak.”
The sons finally understood the lesson and promised to remain united. Thus, they got a lesson for the rest of their life.
