Blind men and an elephant

"Blind Men and an Elephant" is a famous parable or fable that illustrates the idea that different perspectives can lead to different interpretations of the same situation. The story involves a group of blind men who encounter an elephant, but each one touches only a part of the elephant's body—such as the trunk, the tail, the leg, or the side—and based on their limited experience, they each form a conclusion about what the elephant is like.
