Summary: ANCIENT TALES, TIMELESS WISDOM AND MODERN RETELLING. For many long centuries, the Jataka tales have told and retold the past lives of the Buddha-holding within them simple yet profound life lessons. Tales from the Jatakas reprises ten of these Buddhist fables, bringing together art and storytelling in a way that feels both modern and timeless. Meet the noble elephant protecting his friends and his home, observe the unlikely friendship between a parrot and a snake, and admire the mighty sacrifice of a monkey king. Each tale is a reminder of the kindness, courage and wisdom that we can carry into our daily lives. These are perennial tales reimagined for the present day, with wisdom as relevant today as when the Buddha first spoke the words that birthed this lore. https://westlandonline.in/products/tales-that-teach-classic-indian-stories-collection-4-books-set
