For practical Living\r\nWhere every tale opens the window to transformation\r\nIt is said what the sword cannot do, a needle can. Sometimes, even the loftiest principles need to be conveyed in the simplest of ways – that is in short, Swami Chinmayananda’s parables.\r\nIt is commonly mentioned, "What the sword cannot do, a needle can.” \r\n\r\nAt times when the subtle wisdom of the scriptures may seem to overpower us intellectually, parables are able to imbibe in us the same subtle ideas and concepts. The practical manner in which these stories are presented, make learning a more joyous experience.\r\n\r\n This book is a collection of parables as written by Swami Chinmayananda. Within each tale lies a fountain of wisdom to drink from and refresh ourselves. \r\n
