Ten Tales About Religious Life is a series of short stories for 10 to 12-year-olds illustrating key concepts for good conduct for Hindus in a modern context in a cultural setting that will be familiar to today’s youth.
The stories in Ten Tales About Religious Life, are based on the ten ancient Vedic religious observances called the niyamas. The niyamas are universal principles, practices and values found in all religions. They are: remorse, contentment, giving, faith, worship of the Lord, scriptural listening, cognition, sacred vows, recitation and austerity.
These stories teach kids about right living. Each story, some set in India, some in the US, speaks to a single value, for example, nonviolence, honesty, purity or giving. In these stories the characters model positive, noble behavior, helping others and applying religious principles in real-life situations
Unfortunately, ethics and morals are ignored subjects in most of the world?s schools today. This small set of stories will provide Hindu and non-Hindu parents alike one means to convey these all-important character-building values to their children. The stories are intended to compliment Hinduism?s vast array of ancient stories but presents its concepts in the context of the modern world in which our youth today reside.
