Book Synopsis
This is a collection of stories woven from the many accounts which exist of things the author did and experienced. Most of the stories have been inspired by the author''s various trips to Ladakh, Nepal and many places in India. This book takes us to a fantasy world where there are animals, insects, birds and trees that talk and behave like human beings. The stories are presented in an unusual but interesting style. As in Buddhist teachings, most of the characters mentioned in these stories are also animals. The book relates the journey of Buddhism from India to China, Japan and Tibet. The stories of the soul in this book elucidate the philosophy of reincarnation, which is the spiritual entrance to salvation, describe the eight sacred places of the Buddha and dispel myths about the Tibetan medical philosophy. Some of the stories are based on the Lotus Sutra and have been combined with Nepali traditions and culture. These stories provide a perfect blend of various rituals of Buddhism and its history.
