Three Questions Class 7 Summary,  (Honeycomb Chapter 1)

The story is about a king who is troubled by three big questions that bother him:

What is the right time to begin something?

Who are the right people to listen to?

What is the most important thing to do?

The king wants to know the answers to these questions so he can be a wise and effective ruler. He believes that if he knows the right time to start things, who to listen to, and what is the most important action, he will always succeed.

The king decides to find the answers to these questions from wise men. He invites scholars and thinkers to his palace to get their opinions. However, he receives different answers from each person, which leaves him confused. He decides to seek the advice of a hermit, a wise old man who lives in a forest.

When the king visits the hermit, he is surprised to find the hermit busy with simple tasks like digging, planting trees, and taking care of his garden. The king forgets his questions momentarily and helps the hermit. After a while, the hermit stops working and listens to the king's questions. Instead of directly answering the questions, the hermit addresses them through their actions.

While they are talking, a wounded man arrives seeking help. The king and the hermit work together to tend to the wounded man's injuries. During this process, the king realizes that helping others at that moment is the most important thing to do. He understands that the present moment is always the right time to start doing good, and the right people to listen to are the ones right in front of us, who need our help.

In the end, the king learns that his questions have been answered through his experiences and actions. He understands that the most important time is now, the most important people are those around us, and the most important thing is to do good for others.
