Editor's preface to the first edition

The tales in this book, part of a collection that Sri Chinmoy has adapted from traditional Indian stories, have an innocent and childlike quality that appeals to the child in all of us. The stories have been performed as plays by Sri Chinmoy’s students.

From:Sri Chinmoy,Is your mind ready to cry? Is your heart ready to smile? part 1, Agni Press, 1981
