Description
A prince leaves the rose he loves. A sneeze becomes a matter of life and death. A poet asks that only a little of him remain.
These moments open questions that refuse to be confined to the page.
When does love turn into attachment? How does fear make imagined authority stronger than fact? What must fall away before a life can be one’s own?
In Gems from the World (Volume 3), Acharya Prashant turns to three classics: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince, one of the world’s most widely translated works of fiction; Anton Chekhov’s classic satire Death of a Government Clerk; and a poem from Rabindranath Tagore’s Gitanjali: Song Offerings, by India’s first Nobel laureate.
Acharya Prashant takes readers to the point where stories stop belonging only to their characters and begin to speak to their own experience. Across a French philosophical fable, a Russian satire, and an Indian poem, what appears tender, absurd, or devotional begins to question the reader’s own life.
This book invites readers to enter through literature and meet what may be harder to leave behind.
