Preface of this Book:

His Holiness Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatheertha Mahaswamigal, reverentially referred to as ‘Acharyal’ in this book, had an innate ability to explain even complex topics in a simple manner through stories composed by Him on the spot or based on texts such as the Vedas, Ramayana, Mahabharata and Puranas. This book contains well over a hundred edifying parables of our Acharyal compiled by a disciple and grouped over 97 heads. The sources of the parables are Acharyal’s benedictory addresses and His private conversations with the disciple.
