All good stories have a universal appeal.They reach the heart directly;hence the impact is deep and enduring. th value based stories provide profound insight into human psyche,and illumine the path of man's journey towords a heigher level of consciousness.

The stories compiled here have been told and retold by us in the Teacher Training Cources on Sri Sathya Sai EHV programme conducted during the past several years.We have enjoyed narrating the stories;the listeners have been eqally thrilled.Each rendering undergoes inevitable changes depending upon the context,the audience and the narrator.Hence the story never become stale.

A story elicts powerful emotions and inspires the desire in the children to imbibe the values implicit in the story .By adopting an aspect of the main character in the story,they sub-consciously adopt or imitate the character.

'Short stories,20-25 lines long,will be the best.don't make them learn by role;it will not transform the mind .The incidents and the morals they illustrate have been imprinted over the heart. They must learn not by heart,But for and through the heart.' --Sri Sathya Sai

History is one long string of stories of mankind.The fountainhead of all the inspirations is the lord.We place these boquet of stories at His Lotus Feet.
