A man was convicted of a minor offence in Akbar court. Akbar decided to give him a chance. He asked him to give a statement. If the statement is true, he will be killed by lions and if it is false, he will be killed by trampling of wild elephants.

The convicted person requested help from Birbal and since the crime was not a big one, Birbal decided to help him. Whatever Birbal suggested impressed Kabir and he let the convicted person go.

What did Birbal suggest to the person?

I am the beginning of the end, and the end of time and space. I am essential to creation, and I surround every place. What am I?

I’m tall when I’m young, and I’m short when I’m old. What am I?

What demands an answer, but asks no questions

There is a place where if I stand up straight, I will still be considered sideways.

Give it food and it will live; give it water and it will die.

Where do fish keep their money?

Can you find a number that lies one third of the distance between 1/3 and 2/3?

I look flat, but I am deep. Hidden realms I shelter. Lives I take, but the food I offer. At times I am beautiful. I can be calm, angry, and turbulent. I have no heart but offer pleasure as well as death. No man can own me, yet I encompass what all men must have. What am I?
