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.
Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power. It is not in the brain but in the heart that the Atman, possessed of knowledge, power, and activity, has its seat.
-Swami Vivekananda
