In Stories Retold, Dr. Pratap recalls times in his youth when the elders of his village would sit around a fire and tell stories, parables about life, nature, spirit and more. These seem to be a more effective way to instruct as they do not challenge the ego, criticize, or insult and they deliver a wide spectrum message in a memorable way. The 21 stories included in this book are short, yet they will touch an inner chord of your being that sets you on the journey of self-exploration.
