A courtier praises Akbar as greater than God. "How can that be?" he asks the rest, feeling flattered. No one dares speak. Birbal says, "You can do something God cannot. You can banish a man from your kingdom; God cannot banish anyone like that." So Birbal both flattered Akbar but also pointed out the greatness of God at the same time.
