There was a huge Banyan tree on the bank of the river. Once a traveler came, rested under the shade of the tree and praised the vastness of the tree and left.
Same traveler visited the same place aer a few months again. He was surprised by not finding the tree there. He asked the residents near the tree. They said that the tree was huge but the roots of the tree had become hollow. When the storm came, the roots of the tree could not hold the tree to the ground and the tree fell. The traveler kept thinking on his way ahead that however huge you are from outside, the roots inside should be deep and strong.
