The great incarnations and prophets of mankind have often used stories to bring home to the common man the profound truths of philosophy and religion. This book impressively narrates?with attractive illustrations?one such story told and retold earlier by great spiritual teachers like Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda. This book will enable the readers to deeply reflect on the significance of the story, viz. the divinity of man.
The important thing is how much less you think of the body, of yourself as matter -- as dead, dull, insentient matter; how much more you think of yourself as shining immortal being. The more you think of yourself as spirit, the more eager you will be to be absolutely free from matter, body and senses. This is the intense desire to be free.
-Swami Vivekananda
