The blind men And Elephant



This is a story of some blind people and an elephant and their concept is their feeling about an elephant.  Hence, this story has advice. In the 19th century the poet John Godfrey Saxe created his own version as a poem. Since then, the story has been published in many books for adults and children, and interpreted in an ever-increasing variety of ways.
The story is a group of blind men touch an elephant to learn what it is like. Each one feels a different part, but only one part, such as the side or the tusk. They then compare notes and learn that they are in complete disagreement.
The stories differ primarily in how the elephant's body parts are described, how violent the conflict becomes and how the conflict among the men and their perspectives is resolved.
They had no idea about elephant, every people touch different parts of the elephant and they comment about the elephant.
They all were right on their place but their concept was wrong. They just imagine about the elephant by touching one part of its body.
