Why the Sea is Salt?

In a distant land, the two brothers live very different lives. The elder brother is wealthy and driven by greed, while the younger brother, though poor, possesses a kind heart. When the younger sibling embarks on a fateful journey, he encounters a mysterious old man who gifts him a magical millstone capable of producing anything his heart desires. With his new treasure, the younger brother generously shares his fortune, contrasting sharply with his avaricious elder sibling.

As news of the magical millstone spreads, the greedy elder brother schemes to claim it for himself. In a reckless attempt to harness its power, he commands the millstone to produce salt—only to discover he doesn’t know how to stop it. The millstone continues to churn out salt uncontrollably, ultimately spilling into the sea and creating its salty waters forever.

This delightful tale not only explains a natural phenomenon in an imaginative way but also imparts essential moral lessons about kindness, generosity, and the consequences of greed.
