Tales of Wisdom - From India

All of us want to succeed but are sometimes overwhelmed by the odds that we come across. We expect some handholding at that time. Instinctively we look to our elders for guidance from our predicament. All the trials that we are facing today were also faced by our ancestors and they have given out their solution in the form of stories that are found in mythology. India is one of the ancient civilizations that is alive and kicking even today. So, naturally, we have a wealth of wisdom in our religious and mythological scriptures. We can choose to be derisive about them or else we may choose to investigate what they have in store for us.

If we choose the latter course of action, we will be fascinated by the depths of their wisdom and learn from them. That course would make us winners all through our lives. In this collection of stories, we have pieced together stories from the Hindu Epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata and have gleaned lessons from them for our day-to-day life of the present age.

The mere fact that these scriptures have survived in the sub-continent for more than 3000 years suggests that there is some inherent force, energy, and relevance to society for all these years. I hope that you too will find them relavent when you pick one copy.
