Question

4.“Greed makes man blind and foolish, and makes him an easy prey to death”. Justify the
quote with reference to the disciple’s character as presented in the story ‘In the Kingdom of
Fools’.

Answer 1

Answer:

The main moral of the story kingdom of fools is that greed leads to downfall.

The selfish king wants to become the king again in his next birth.

He falls in guru's trap and orders his own execution before the disciple.

As a result he dies and the people get rid of the foolish king.

If the king would not have been greedy the disciple would have lost his life and he could have happily ruled over the kingdom.

But his greed led to his death.
