it is said once a man caught a qamri fakhta-dove , the bird asked what he intented doing with it, the man said he would kill it to eat its meat
the bird said its meat was not enough for him, instead the qamri would give him three pieces of wise advices that woul all his life help him
agreed the man and re;eased the qamri
the first advice is never feel sorry what you lost
second advice the bird gave sitting on a branch of a tree -be reasonable and practical differentiating between the possible and impossible
then it was about to fly away
the man said what was the third advice as they had bargained
the bird said if he had killed it there were two huge precious rare pearls in its stomach he could have sold each one weighing twenty mishqal
yje man felt a sense of utter loss
but nevertheless he asked the bird to impart with the third advice
qamri said-it is unreasonable , practically her own weight including her meat wings and all entire body weight was less than twenty mishqal so it could not have contained more than her own weight two gems
