Weaving the wisdom of ancient Hindu tales with contemporary analysis and guided meditations, Stories to Live By illustrates how these age-old stories teach universal lessons and insights for understanding ourselves today.
Passed down for generations, India's puranas consist of ancient tales and epics filled with rich symbolism, beloved characters and deities, and sage lessons for understanding the world. Stories to Live By presents a retelling of eight classic tales, along with a detailed analysis of their symbolism and contemporary significance, reflection questions for contemplation, guided meditations, mudras, and mantras.
Whether you are a devoted student of the puranas or this is your first introduction to them, you will find something to identify with in these engaging, wisdom-filled stories.
