Hari the lion

There is a Lion who was brought up among sheep and started thinking itself as a sheep until the day he met a ‘true’ Lion who woke him up. A delightful and thoroughly American version about the lion who thinks he’s a lamb. This parable was often used by Swami Vivekananda to show that like the lion in the story, we don’t know our true nature, that we are divine.
