This book opens with traditional folktales from the Panchatantra, the Hitopadesha, and the Katha-Sarit-Sagara (“Story-Stream-Ocean”), plus Jataka tales of the Buddha’s past lives. You will also find stories of the Indian gods and goddesses, plus parables from Ramakrishna, who was both a sadhu (holy man) and storyteller. The book closes with anecdotes about the legendary jesters Tenalirama from the court of Krishnadevaraya in southern India and Birbal from the court of Akbar in the north.
