The Seven-ColoredJackal Adapted from Rumi’s Masnavi Skill: Self-Acceptance A hungry jackal, not satisfied with his ugly appearance, is looking for food in the woods and watching beautiful animals in regret. Then trying to hunt a chicken, he enters a dyeing workshop. He hits a cauldron of dye and his body is all dyed. Tired and thirsty, the jackal goes to a spring to wash himself. But when he sees his colorful appearance, he changes his mind. He decides to remain dyed and change his lifestyle. He wants to be a peacock from now on. This decision, however, puts him in trouble.
