The Princess Farmer
A Bhili folktale
Kansari
was the daughter of
a powerful king.
Although she was a princess,
she had always wanted to be
a farmer when she was a child.
This made her father angry,
and when she grew up,
her father ordered her
to leave the palace.
"I want you to experience
how difficult life is outside this palace.
Only then will you
come to your senses,"
he said angrily.
So Kansari packed
the seeds that she had collected
throughout her childhood,
and went to live in the woods.
She built
a little hut
and began planting seeds
in the nearby field.
It was hard work,
but Kansari had help
from her three new friends:
a cat, a parrot and a spider.
The cat hunted rats
in the field.
The spider took care of the hut.
The parrot flew around the kingdom
and brought back
the latest news.
They all became good friends
and lived together happily.
It wasn't long before
everyone in the kingdom
was talking about Kansari's lush farm.
This made the king furious
and he went to Indra,
the king of the gods.
The king requested Indra to help him,
as he wanted to teach his daughter
a lesson.
"Leave it to me.
I'll send down a drought.
All the crops will dry up
and die," said Indra.
The parrot heard this
and quickly recounted it to Kansari.
Kansari and her friends
then moved their crops
to a damp riverbed.
When the drought took place,
all the crops in the kingdom dried up,
but Kansari's crops survived.
Indra saw this
and scratched his head.
"I'll send down a flood.
That should stop Kansari,"
he said.
But again,
the parrot overheard Indra.
This time,
Kansari, along with her friends,
planted their crops
on the slope of a hill.
When the flood came,
it drowned all the crops in the kingdom.
Kansari's crops
were the only ones that survived,
because the excess water
simply flowed downhill.
“I'll send hundreds of rats!”
Indra decided.
But the parrot
told the cat of Indra's plan.
“Wonderful!
I'll call my cat friends
for a feast!” purred the cat.
Soon the cats had eaten
every single rat in the field.
By now, Indra was at his wit's end.
"I'll send birds!
She can't save her crops
from birds!" he said.
But the spider called
her spider friends
and they wove sticky webs
above the crops.
When the birds attacked the crops
they were stuck in the sticky web.
The crops were saved once again.
By now the king
had bigger problems.
The drought and flood
had destroyed
all the crops in the kingdom.
People were starving.
The king
went to Indra for help.
"You don't need my help.
Your daughter Kansari
is already feeding your people!"
said Indra.
He took the king
to the woods.
There he saw Kansari
and her friends
giving away sacks of grain
to everyone.
The king felt ashamed of himself
and proud of his daughter.
"There are nobler things
than just living in a palace.
Don't you agree?"
asked Indra.
The king begged
his daughter for forgiveness
and requested her
to come back to the palace.
She forgave her father
but did not return to the palace;
she stayed in her hut beside her fields,
living happily with her friends.
Kansari later became known
as the Princess Farmer.
