Bøger af Noor Inayat Khan

Traduzione Italiana del libro di Noor Inayat Khan "Twenty Jataka Tales" in cui la figlia del mistico Indiano Hazrat Inayat Khan ha riscritto in un linguaggio semplice adatto ai bambini alcune storie narrate nell'antico testo Buddista delle Jataka. Un libro immenso, capace di ispirare qualunque cuore abbia conservato la purezza innocente del cuore di un bambino, qualunque cuore ancora in cerca di una verità profonda e senza tempo. La presente traduzione ha inoltre ricevuto l'incoraggiamento del fratello di Noor Inayat Khan, Murshid Hidayat Inayat Khan, a cui siamo immensamente grati

LITERATURE"Noor Inayat Khan remains, in the minds and hearts of many, an exemplary figure whose life has been their inspiration."Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan, Head of Sufi Order founded in 1910 by Hazrat Inayat KhanThese twenty tales have been drawn from famous legends concerning the former lives of the Buddha. Beloved by children and adults alike, they tell of people and animals moved to acts of sacrifice by the noble example of their fellow creatures. The flavor is often suggestive of Aesop, as are the lessons that are so subtly and keenly conveyed. Presented in a simplified narrative, the tales maintain the magical and timeless beauty of their Far Eastern origins. The stories are ideal for reading to children, as they tell of highly dramatic adventures that are resolved by non-violent and compassionate means. Challenging circumstances bring forth courage and the capacity to love, opening the way to solutions against seemingly impossible odds. This book will also be coveted for its exquisite illustrations by the well-known illustrator H. Willebeek Le Mair.
