Six blind men were asked to determine what an elephant looked like by feeling different parts of the elephant’s body.<\/p>\n
\nThe blind man who feels a leg says the elephant is like a pillar; the one who feels the tail says the elephant is like a rope; the one who feels the trunk says the elephant is like a tree branch; the one who feels the ear says the elephant is like a hand fan; the one who feels the belly says the elephant is like a wall; and the one who feels the tusk says the elephant is like a solid pipe.<\/p>\n
They argued for some time before they decide to go to the king.<\/p>\n

“All of you are right. The reason every one of you is telling it differently is because each one of you touched the different part of the elephant. So, actually the elephant has all the features you mentioned.”<\/p>\n
