Once there lived a Brahmin who owned a large field. But he was too lazy to sow anything on it. Once a Sadhu visited him. Being kind, the Brahmin served him with complete devotion. The Sadhu was happy for him. So he informed him about a hidden treasure in his field. But the Sadhu told him that on digging a place while searching the treasure he should sprinkle some grains and then cover it with soil. The Brahmin agreed. He dug the field for 3 days. But he did not find any treasure. The Brahmin was disappointed. The next few days it rained well. After a few days, the Brahmin visited his field. To his surprise crops have grown on his field. He was very happy to see the grown crops. He realized the real treasure the Sadhu had told him about.

Moral of the story: Without labor, nothing prospers. Hard work is the key to success.
