A boy named Suresh lived with his mother in a small village. His father was not there. Suresh used to do the work of chopping wood. He used to go to the forest with an ax every morning, chop wood throughout the day and collect those girls in the evening and sell them in the market. The money he got used to run his house.
One day when Suresh went to cut wood from the forest and sell it in the market, the shopkeeper said, “Suresh, now the demand for wood has increased. The work will not be done with so many woods. You will have to bring more wood.
Suresh said, “Sethji! From tomorrow I will work harder and cut more wood.
"Ok! If you bring more wood, I will give you a good price for it. The shopkeeper spoke.
Suresh came home after taking money from the shopkeeper and told everything to his mother. Hearing this, the mother said, "Son, you have to work so hard at a young age. I wish your father was alive, then we would not have to live a life of poverty like this.
Suresh said to his mother, "Don't worry, mother. I will work hard. One day our poverty will also go away.
Next morning Suresh got up early and went to the forest with an axe. He had already cut the wood of many trees outside the forest. That's why he decided to go inside the forest and cut wood.
On going inside the forest, he saw a banyan tree, in which a big door was built. Suresh was surprised to see such a strange banyan tree. Out of curiosity he went to the tree and pushed the door. The door opened in no time.
When Suresh peeped inside, he saw complete darkness. But, still Suresh went inside the door. After walking some distance inside in the dark, he started seeing light. When he moved towards the light, he found that there was a village on the other side of the tree.
He started roaming in the village. While roaming around, suddenly he heard the sound of someone shouting. When he moved towards the sound, he saw that the sound was coming from a pit.
He peeped into the pit. There was a man lying down and calling for help.
Suresh told him, “I am throwing the rope. You come out holding that.
Then he threw a rope into the pit, catching which the man came out of the pit. He started thanking Suresh a lot, then Suresh said, "There is no point in thanking. We all should help each other."
Then the man asked Suresh, “Who are you and how did you come here?”
Suresh told him the whole thing about the door of the banyan tree. Is.
Then the man said, “That is a magic door, which opens only for ten days. You must return before evening, because if the door is closed, you will not be able to go home for ten days.
Suresh thanked him for this information and started going ahead. Then the man gave him a stick and said, "You have saved my life. That's why keep this stick.
"But what shall I do with this stick?" Suresh spoke in surprise.
"It's a magic wand. It will give you as many woods as you ask for. That man told.
Suresh took the magic stick and thanked the man and moved on.
At some distance, he saw an old man, who was a bit upset. Suresh asked him, “Baba, what happened? You seem somewhat troubled.
The man said, "Son, what should I tell. The wood has run out at home. That's why I have come out to kill girls from the forest, but now there is not much power left in these hands. Can't understand how to arrange the woods.
Suresh gave a lot of wood to the old man with the help of a magic stick. The old man thanked him and gave him a pot and said, “Son, this is a magical pot. Whenever you need food, ask for it.
Suresh took the magic pot. It was sunset time. So he came out of the magic door of the tree. Happily he reached home and narrated the incident in the forest and put the magic stick and the magic pot in the hands of the mother.
Mother was very happy to see the magic stick and the magic pot. Suresh was feeling hungry. He asked for food from the magic pot. Many dishes were decorated in the plate in front of him. Mother and son had a full meal that night.
Next morning Suresh asked for a lot of wood with the magic stick and earned good money by selling it to the shopkeeper. With the help of magic wand and magic pot, gradually their poverty was removed and they started living happily.
