Three Mannequins

Three Mannequins

BR Raksun

A mannequin is an often articulated doll used by the artists, tailors, dressmakers, window dressers and others especially to display or fit clothing. The term is also used for life-sized dolls used in the teaching and used to model the behavior of the human body.

 

 

This story goes to a kingdom where there was a clever king by name Kushalsen, clever minister by name Budhisresht and the court clown by name Vidushacharya along with a bright court adviser by name Sukshmabal.

 

 One day one great artist from the kingdom came to the court. He made three life-sized mannequins to gift them to the king, minister and court clown. He brought all the three mannequins with him and the dolls are very beautiful.

 

All the three mannequins are transparent and by internal lighting system also.

 

"Dear king, These three dolls are very special and made to suit, one for you, the king, one for your minister and the third one for the court clown. Your majesty has to decide which is suitable for whom among you three and tell me why. This will be my pleasure to see that someone will understand my idea and appreciate this." The artist said.

 

The king looked at the three mannequins which are very beautiful and looking alike.

 

The king looked at the court adviser Sukshmgrahi to find out the secret of these mannequins and solve the puzzle.

 

Sukshmgrahi examined the three dolls very carefully and found that all the three have holes at the place of ear. There is a button also and when it is pressed, the inside of the dolls is visible.

 

The court adviser ordered for a thin and long metal chord. When it has come, he dropped one end of it from the hole at the ear in one doll and pressed the button to illuminate inside. The chord came out from other hole of ear of that doll. When he dropped the chord in the ear hole of the second mannequin, the chord has gone deep inside the stomach. He dropped the metal chord in the ear hole of third mannequin and that chord came out from the mouth.

 

Sukshmgrahi finished his examination and explained his analysis like this-

 

"The first mannequin is designed to suit our court clown Vidushacharya, because he is very simple and what he hears from one ear leaves from the other ear, as his nature of job is not important to contemplate on anything seriously. He is a light hearted gentle man, so this first mannequin is to be gifted to our Vidushakacharya." Sukshmgrahi said with deep contemplation.

 

The artist clapped saying that what Suksmgrahi said is his thought while making that mannequin.

 

Now Sukshamgrahi stood before the second mannequin and said like this.

 

"When the chord is dropped from one ear, it has gone deep in to the stomach and did not come out. So this is perfectly made for our minister Budhisresht who will not reveal everything he hears and keeps it as secret in his stomach. He reveals anything when the time comes and it is needed, until then all the news he knows will be kept as secret. A clever minister needs this quality of keeping things UNREVEALED until it is needed to reveal."

 

When Sukshmgrahi said this, the artist clapped in still more heavy sound and said, "Perfectly right. I made this doll for our respected minister Budhisresht!"

 

Now he stood before the third mannequin and said looking at the king, "my lord, it is made exactly to suit you. You hear any thing and before judging on that, you will consult with your ministers. So this mannequin is made so that the chord goes from the hole of the ear, but comes out from the mouth."

 

Now the artist clapped in extreme satisfaction and applauded the court advisor, "Perfect! Very Perfect! I intended this for our beloved king only!"

 

The king was happy at both the artist and the court advisor for showing their sharp intelligence. He honored both of them with royal gifts and court honors.
