About the Book
UNEARTH THE PHILOSOPHY AND LEARNINGS OF INDIAN SCRIPTURES WITH 25 CAPTIVATING STORIES RETOLD BY SPIRITUAL LEADER DAAJI
Prince Yudhishtir who gets his dead brothers back from an enchanted pool, King Trishanku who desired to go to heaven while he was still alive, and the Monkey God Hanuman who learns a lesson in humility. Curious, aren't you?
These stories and many more form the heart of the Puranas and Itihaas, among the oldest written Hindu texts.
Daaji's keen curatorial selection brings an array of ancient tales of adventure, quests and wisdom. He engages with the narratives and simplifies the ancient wisdom to make it understandable and at the same time feed the imagination of children and set them on a path to self-discovery.
These stories provide insights into the mind, heart and consciousness of human beings and their relationships with others. They are intended to leave children with life lessons to be cherished through their lives.
This book is an excellent place for young minds to start learning about the fascinating Vedic era with stories that are relevant for anyone who is interested in understanding the meaning of life. Accompanied by Gayatri Panchpade's charming illustrations, this is an easy-to-understand introduction to the otherwise complex world of ancient Hindu scriptures and literature.
About the Author
Known widely as Daaji, Kamlesh Patel is an original voice in an ancient tradition. His teachings arise from his personal experience on the path of Heartfulness, while reflecting his deep spirit of enquiry and respect for the world's great spiritual traditions and scientific advancements.
Daaji practised pharmacy in New York City for over three decades before being named as the successor in a century-old lineage of spiritual masters. Fulfilling the many duties of a modern-day guru, he extends his support to spiritual seekers everywhere.
A self-professed student of spirituality, he devotes much of his time and energy to research in the field of consciousness and spirituality, approaching the subject with scientific methodology-a practical approach that stems from his own experience and mastery in the field.
