One day, in Akbar’s court, his courtesans complained to him, “Birbal considers himself to be more intelligent then you!” Another said, “He should be sent on exile for making you look like a fool”.Akbar began to wonder: Maybe, these people are right? Maybe, Birbal does want to show me inferior in front of others? Maybe, I need to question his place in the court?Akbar felt ‘less-then-himself’. He questioned Birbal, “Are you sure you are wisest of all? Prove it!” Birbal just bowed and said “Sire, I am not the wisest, but if I have hurt you in any which way I am ready for any punishment.”So, Birbal was sent on exile!
