Akbar wants to know which profession is followed by the most people in his country. Birbal said, Doctors will be more. Birbal told the Emperor who did not believe it to reach the city gate the next morning. Akbar, who arrived on time, saw the wound on Birbal’s hand and asked: What happened? Birbal said that it was accidentally cut while cutting the wood. The emperor instructed to pour water on the wound and apply medicine. After doing so, Birbal said: You should write down the full names of the doctors who come this way. All those who saw the wound gave advice. In the evening, when Akbar gave the names of the doctors, Birbal said: Your name is not in it. You are the one who prescribed me the medicine first. Everyone who came later made their suggestions. Now do you understand that there are doctors in this country?
If everyone stops meddling in unnecessary and ignorant things, everyone will reach the right in their own way. Scandals and dangers are spread by those who pretend to know and comment on anything. There are two types of tongue twisters. One is not to talk about knowing, two is to talk about not knowing.
There are two types of expert opinion and public opinion. No society will perform well if it depends solely on what the most people see and hear. It is the responsibility of those who know to speak loudly about what they know. The indifference and silence of the knowledgeable is the reason for the spread of ignorance and misunderstanding. Allowing the knowledgeable to speak is the mark of a progressive society.
