Voice and the Wings

(Greek) In ancient times, it was said that the crow had silvery-white feathers and skin, and had a beautiful singing voice. Naturally, with beauty and voice, it was a servant of Apollo. One morning, Apollo told his crow to fetch him water. However, the crow spotted ripe food, and picked and ate it, ignoring its orders. Eventually, it realized its mistake, and rushed back to Apollo. Apollo asked it where it had been, as it had been a long time. The crow lied, and Apollo easily sensed it, being a god(is it like parents, where they always know when you are lying). He became very angry, and punished the crow, turning its beautiful feathers and skin into pure black, the color of evil, and turned its singing voice into a ugly, horrid croak. From then on, it was condemned to be known for its croak rather than its song.

(Hindu) In ancient times, elephants used to have wings and be able to fly(how they weigh like 10,000 pounds even with wings and aren't aerodynamic). One day, they decided that they would like to rest on a tree, and flapped to it. The tree, obviously, could not hold their weight and collapsed. Under this tree, there was a Yogi, teaching his students. The Yogi got very very mad, and took away the elephant's wings, cursing them to remain to the land. 

So, what are the similarities and differences between these? Both have animals that angered people in power, and were punished for being greedy. However, in one, it is by ignorance, in the other, it is by foolishness. either way, the message is similar. If you do things not in your place, you will fall from grace.
