Srimati Kamala presents the essential teachings of the Mahatma and describes how the same beliefs which nourished Gandhi were shared by our Native Americans and, much later, by the 'Boston Brahmins' Emerson and Thoreau."
Some years ago while reading correspondence from the Collected Volumes of Gandhi's letters - Srimati Kamala noticed a closing where he wrote, "Yours faithfully, M. K. Gandhi." Gandhiji's noble soul will invite the faithful inner self of the "generations yet to come" - anyone willing to join the Great Soul's greatest adventure - to the life of self-discovery in the vastly infinite yet companionable Truth. This book is Gandhi's own message faithfully presented by Srimati Kamala.
In one of Mahatma Gandhi's letters to the children of his ashram, he addressed them as “little birds.” Just as children around the world are introduced to morals and ideals through stories of animals, this flock of poems brings messages from Mahatma Gandhi through stories told by and about birds. This book breathes through the wings of birds in rhyming verse. The poems are inspired by beloved folk tales and stories gathered from the Panchatantra, the Jataka tales, the Upanishads, the Bible, the Qur’an, Attar’s Conference of the Birds, Aesop’s Fables and more. The artwork has been offered by a variety of artists to share the visual imagery expressed by the poems. Each unique style presents a loving contribution. Also available on Amazon.
