Answer 1

Answer:

In Sahyadri Hills – A Lesson in Humility is a story by Sudha Murthy about her experiences with the tribals in the hilly area. She had brought clothes and umbrellas for the children studying in the rural school there. However, the seniormost person of the tribe, Thandappa refused to accept them. The children expressed their wish to learn computers and asked for books written on this  topic in Kannada. Sudha Murthy promised to look for them when she was back in Bangalore. She said that she would write one herself if she could not find any. This made the children happy.

At this point of time, Thandappa gave her a bottle of juice made from a red fruit. Sudha Murthy was hesitant to accept it as she had gone there to give what she could and not accept. Moreover, the locals themselves had hardly anything to eat and drink. When she refused politely, she was surprised that Thandappa also declined her gifts. He said explained that as a matter of principle set upon them by their ancestors, they could only accept gifts from someone when he had something to offer in return and it was accepted.

Undoubtedly, Sudha Murthy was impressed and humbled by the high principles followed by an old tribal man with no schooling.
