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.
I am the thread that runs through all these pearls, and each pearl is a religion or even a sect thereof. Such are the different pearls, and God is the thread that runs through all of them; most people, however, are entirely unconscious of it.
-Swami Vivekananda
