Book Description

About The Book

Stories in Indian culture, as indeed in all ancient civilization of the world, have always offered us much more than mere entertainment. These stories were not just meant to help us kill time or to appeal to idle imaginations. Instead, they were repositories of wisdom, nuggets of truth wrapped in a sugar coating of a well told narrative. It was a wise man who said that a good story could teach us more about life than a whole book of proverbs. The stories that we have brought together in this collection, belong to this tradition of wisdom and insight.

Rev. Dada J.P. Vaswani has always been a raconteur par excellence. His informal talks, discourses as well as his books have always been liberally interspersed with thought provoking stories, interesting anecdotes and tales from our myths and scriptures, chosen judiciously to bring home the point that he wishes us to absorb. These stories are so memorable, that they linger long in our hearts allowing us to internalize the message or the value that rev. Dada has so creatively put across to us!

In this book, we bring together one hundred stories chosen from his recent talks and books, neatly packaged with a thought from Rev. Dada offered for your reflection, and Rev. Dada’s trademark practical exercise in the form of a tip for you to follow!
