The Sleepy Teacher

In a distant village there was a small village. 

There was a fat slumpy teacher in the school. Everyday after the lunch the teacher laid back on his chair and took a nap.

One day the students decided to ask him why he slept during the tutor hours. The teacher coaxed and said, 'Children, there is a beautiful peaceful dreamland where great sages live. In my sleep, I go to those far lands of holy sages to take their blessings'.

One summer afternoon the sun poured its heat with all intensity. People became weary due to heat. In the school, the children fell asleep. Soon the teachers chided them.

One of the students stood up and said, 'Sir, we went to the land of great sages in our dreams. We met great sages, who blessed us and told us many great stories. We also them about you'.

The teacher demanded, 'So what did they say?'

'The sages said that there is no such person known to them'.

The teacher was filled with shame and never slept in the class during lesson time.
