There was poor farmer who survived on his tiny piece of land. One day while he was working in the field he saw a huge cobra sitting on the nearby anthill. The farmer thought that the cobra must be the god of the anthill. As a sign of worship the farmer brought a bowl of milk and offered it to the cobra. Next day when the farmer went to the field to get his bowl he found a gold coin in it. After that it became a daily routine for the farmer. After sometime the farmer had to go to some other place. He told his son to feed the cobra and collect the gold coin. The son was too greedy. He thought of killing the cobra and capturing the whole treasure at one go. When the son tried to kill it the cobra bit him and he died. Too much greed is always dangerous.
