Over one hundred short stories from the East to inspire and instruct. Excellent for Buddhists and Yogis.

These never before published teaching stories of the yoga master Swami Kripalu are at once down-to-earth and transcendent. The Swami was fond of telling stories as a way of making his often subtle and surprising points. For example, in a parable about mind control, "The Demanding Daughter," we learn of a young spoiled woman who will only marry on the condition that she can find a husband who will allow her to strike him on the head seven times a day with her shoe. Each story is set off by a particular yoga principle that the Swami illustrates through the story.

One of the greatest Kundalini yoga masters of the twentieth century was also a scholar, musician, athlete and writer. The largest Yoga school in the west-Kripalu Yoga Center- was inspired by his teachings.
