Directions—(Q. 1–15) Read the following
passage carefully and answer the questions given
below it. Certain words have been printed in bold
to help you locate them while answering some of
the questions.
Once upon a time, there lived a herd of
elephants at the bottom of the majestic Himalayas.
Their leader was a rare white elephant who was an
extremely kind-hearted soul. He greatly loved his
mother who had grown blind and feeble and could
not look out for herself. Each day this white
elephant would go deep into the forest in search of
food. He would look for the best of fruits to send
to his mother through other elephants of the herd.
But his mother never received any. This was
because the other members of the herd would
always eat them up themselve. Each night, when
he returned home he would be surprised to hear
that his mother had been starving all day. He was
absolutely disgusted with his herd. Then one day,
he decided to leave them all behind and
disappeared in the middle of the night along with
his dear mother. He took her to Mount Candorana
to live in a cave besides a beautiful lake.
It so happened that one day, when the white
elephant was feeding, he heard loud cries. A
forester from Benaras had lost his way in the
forest and was absolutely terrified. The white
elephant told him not to worry as he knew every
inch of this forest and could take him to safety. He
then lifted him on to his back and carried him to
16 | Corporation Bank Clerk 2009
the edge of the forest from where the forester went
on his merry way back to Benaras.
On reaching the city, he heard that King’s
personal elephant had just died and the King was
looking for a new elephant. His heralds were
roaming the city, announcing that any man who
had seen or heard of an elephant fit for a king
should come forward with the information. The
forester was very excited and immediately went
up to the King and told h i m a b o u t the white
elephant that he had seen on Mount Candorana.
The King was quite pleased with the information
and immediately dispatched a number of soldiers
and elephant trainers along with the forester. After
travelling for many days, the group reached the
lake besides which the elephants resided. They
slowly crept down to the edge of the lake and hid
behind the bushes. The white elephant was
collecting lotus shoots for his mother’s meal and
could sense the presence of humans. When he
looked up, he spotted the forester and realized
that it was he who had led the King’s men to him.
He was very upset at the ingratitude but decided
not to put up a struggle as many of the men would
be killed. And he was just too kind to hurt anyone.
So he decided to go along with them to Benaras
and then seek a solution to this problem.
On reaching the beautiful city of Benaras, the
trainers laid out a feast for their new State
elephant but he refused to touch a morsel. He did
not respond to any kind of stimuli, be it the
fragrant flowers or the beautiful and comfortable
stable. He just sat there looking completely
despondent. The King was extremely concerned.
He offered the elephant food from the royal table
and asked him why he grieved in this manner. The
white elephant replied that he would not eat a
thing until he met his mother back home on
Mount Candorana as she must be hungry because
she was blind and had no one to feed her and take
care of her. He was afraid that she would die. The
compassionate King was touched by the
elephant’s story and assured him that his soldiers
would bring his old mother to the palace as soon
as possible. The King kept his promise and his
soldiers took good care of his mother as well for
as long as she lived. She blessed the kind King
with peace, prosperity and joy till the end of his
days. In this way the white elephant could serve
the King and also enjoy the royal parks at the
King’s palace along with his mother.
