The Lives of Masters of Wisdom told in Story Books
In India, there is a long tradition of picture books depicting stories from the Ramayana, Mahabharata, Puranas, and other epics. They are targeted to children – I have read many such picture books in English language with my then small children, translating the booklets orally. My sons liked them as action stories with a profound spiritual background. Of course, we also read illustrated wisdom books of the Western tradition.
And such books are not only read by children but also by those remained young at heart. The inspiration and impressions gleaned from such picture books during childhood remain with us, either consciously or unconsciously, throughout our lives.
A friend from Hyderabad, India – Sanath Sripathi – has realised up to now 5 story books on the lives of Masters of Wisdom told in picture e-books format. A team of volunteers contributed to scriptwriting, translation, proofreading the books – and so it came that I also got involved and enjoyed the stories very much.
While the first 3 books were illustrated by artist friends mentioned in the books, the last 2 were AI generated – and in the process well refined.
The first 3 books are primarily based on the writings and discourses of Dr. K. Parvathi Kumar (Master KPK), the last 2 books are based mainly on books of Dr. Ekkirala Krishnamacharya (Master EK), adding elements of books of Sri Kumar.
The stories are available for free download in English, German, Spanish, Telugu and Kannada, only as PDFs. Here are the titles of the books, linked to the English PDFs:
