 Once upon a time in a village there lived a person named as Madhav. He used to make statues of God using clay. Once villagers asked him to make a statue of God Ganesha on occasion of Ganesh Festival then Madhav said, "I have only one strong stack of clay is it ok?" Then villagers said, "Yaa it's ok." Then Madhav started to make Ganesha of that clay. When he started to role, twist and turn the clay the clay speaks up "Stop dear Stop it's hurting me." Then Madhav started to think that how can a clay talk?. Then he asks the clay, "Clay is this you?" Then clay replied, "Yaa Yaa it's me but you first don't make anything of me it's hurting." Then Madhav said, "Ok," and kept that clay aside.

 Now Madhav started to think that hmmm now I should go to city and buy a another stack of strong clay. Then he goes to city and buys a stack of strong clay and before making Ganesha of it he first asks the clay, "Dear clay can I make Ganesha of you?" then clay thinks first and then answers, "Yes you can make Ganesha of me.". Then Madhav was happy and he started to make Ganesha of that clay.

 On the day of Ganesh festival people of that village asks Madhav to give the Ganesha to them then Madhav gives Ganesha to them after placing Ganesha on place they asked Madhav to give some more clay if available. Then Madhav says, "Yaa take this previous stack of strong clay." Then people of village started to give Modhaks, Pedhas etc as Naivadwam for Ganesha and started banging coconut on the clay that has been refused to be a Ganesha.

 Then the clay that has been refused to be a Ganesha says to clay that has been Ganesha that, "You are so lucky that everyone are giving you food and banging coconut on me it's hurting me but what can I do now?" Then the clay that has been Ganesha replies, "I am not lucky you would be also lucky if you had not refused to be a Ganesha. You are responsible for your mistake now see what happened." Then at that point the clay that has been refused to be a Ganesha realized his mistake that we would never show any attitude towards our job give respect to our work and accept our duty then only we will definitely get happiness.
