Once upon a time. Shri Krishna was playing Pittu with some of his friends on the banks of Yamuna. You must have known that Pittu is played by hitting one stone to another and all the friends there were naughty. One of the friends sees that a lady is passing by and the lady has a big attractive pot in her hand. She is accompanied by her husband and son. They are passing by him and the boy is mischievous and has a stone in his hand.
He throws the stone to tease the woman on the pot, but the stone injury causes a crack in the pot when he hits the stone. The Matka breaks. Now the woman sees that the pot has broken. She fires up and the runaway and stands up to all those children and says who has broken my Matka tell me quickly or else I will punish you all. Now, all children get nervous. Shri Krishna thinks no one should be blamed and no one gets punished, so he himself comes forward and says that fault is mine, I have thrown stones.
Now when Krishna Ji comes in front all the friends are absolutely surprised that it is not Krishna's fault yet he has appeared and there is the woman who shouts at Shri Krishna as if she doesn't know what she will do.
Yashoda Maa and Nandlal also come and Yashoda Maa asks what happened, says your son has broken my pot, now Yashoda's mother says that my son has made a mistake, Your pot is broken, I will give you two pots for this one-pot, please calm down and forgive my son. The woman says how can I forgive like this, my pot is cracked. It was not a common pot. It was a magical spot. Now the woman becomes more greedy when she comes to know that she is getting two pots.
Yashoda Maa wonders, it was a magic pot, what should I do now? Nandlal says from behind that we have made a mistake with our son, please forgive us, your pot will undoubtedly be very valuable, now we have made a mistake and our son has made a mistake, we will give you a gold pot instead of a magical pot. Now as soon as the woman hears about the pot of gold, she thinks that it will be very rich people. She does not agree. She says what will happen to the gold pot, nothing will happen this was my magic pot. Now Nandlal again gets confused about what to do so he talks to that lady, we will give you two gold pots made. Please forgive our son. The woman's greed has increased, now she is giving 2 pots of gold, she will have a lot of money, so if she expects to have at least 10 pitchers, then that woman says what will happen to two gold pitchers. If you give me ten pots of gold, I will forgive your son, otherwise, I will not forgive.
Now Nandlal Ji gets surprised and thinks 10 pitchers of gold. But even after this, he says to the woman that it is okay, I will give you 10 gold pitchers. Please forgive our son. Well, if you make me 10 pots of gold, I will forgive your son. Now Krishna ji is surprised because ten gold Matka have been given for that too for a normal pot. He says to the lady that I have made a mistake and my father is giving you 10 pots for my mistake so please give me the broken pot at least I will remember that in my life for my mistake my father had to give you 10 gold pots.
Now Krishna Ji brings that Matka up but he sees that Matka (pot) is not broken at all. He says, Maiya, this pot is not broken at all. Yashoda takes the Matka (pot) in her hand and says that the Matka (pot) is absolutely fine. That woman snatches the pot and sees that the pot is absolutely right, now what did she say. After thinking a little, she says that this pot seems to be connected, at first, it was broken, I do not understand what happened, but it was a magical Matka (pot).

So on this matter, Shri Krishna says that it was a good magical pot, so it was added automatically. That woman says that if this magical pot will do the right thing, I will forgive you. What does that mean Yashoda Maa said? That woman says that whatever I asked for from this pot, I used to get it. If it is still working that means this Matka is still correct. Otherwise, my pot got spoiled.
Then Shri Krishna says then ask and see. So she speaks to the magic pot, she said hey! magical pot gives me two gold bracelets. Now there is some light inside that pot. The woman puts her hand on the pot, two gold bracelets come. The woman says hey! This is working. She started thinking that this was a normal Matka, how did it become a magical pot. Now she says that I still will not agree because it did not listen only to me. He used to listen to my son too. If the son speaks and gets what he asks for, then this Matka is working properly.
Now the son speaks. Hey! Magical Matka Give me a golden toy. Now that pot gets light again, the son puts his hand in it, and the golden toy comes out. Now that woman is surprised, oh it has become a magical pot. Now that woman says it's okay, I forgive you and she immediately runs away from there.
Now she puts her gold bracelets inside that pot, keeps her son's toy too. While walking, she says in her mind what would have happened if she had taken 10 gold pots. I have a magical Matka (pot) from which I will keep getting anything if I ask for it. And after walking a short distance, the woman gets greedy and says, " Hey! magical Matka gives me 100 gold bracelets. Now there is light in it, but the soil comes out when she puts her hand in the pot. Now the bracelet and toy that is already inside it have also become clay. Now she is not able to stay stable she says again give me 100 gold bracelets with magic pots. Now this time nothing happens, even light does not come, there is the only soil in it.
Now her husband explains to her that the name of the child you were scolding is Krishna and everyone in Gokul says that he is the form of God. You are greedy, so you are getting the fruit of that greed. Because you have greed, everything is ruined. When you were getting a pot of gold, you would have taken it, then what was the need to be greedy anymore.

Moral of the Story
Greed is an evil force. We should never be greedy. Anyone who does greed can never be happy in his life. Whatever we got for our hard work or luck. One should extract his work from him.
But if we get greedy in the affair of a little more, then we may have to lose even more than what we have now. That's why it is said that too much greed is not good. You must have heard that the Makhi should be stuck in jaggery, feathers should be wrapped. Hands match and head tunes, greed is bad (Maakhi gud mein gadi rahe, pankh rahe lipataae .haath mel aur sar dhunem, laalach buri balaay) .
"Greed is not a financial issue. It's a Heart issue"
"Greed is a lack of confidence in one's own ability to create"
