- Does any one know the story of the blind men describing the elephant?
- One blind man touch the elephants leg and says an elephant is like
- a tree. Another blind man touches the elephants trunk and says an elephant
- is like a snake. And so on. The story sounds to me like an Indian story,
- so I posted it here. I need the original source and the full text of the
- story. Can anybody help?
