Synopsis
Anthony de Mello shares 124 stories from a variety of traditions, both ancient and modern, using the age-old medium of parable to illustrate profound contemporary realities about our everyday concerns and our common spiritual quest. The aim is to develope the art of tasting and feeling the message of each story to the point that we are transformed. "Let the story speak to your heart, not to your brain", the author directs. "This may make something of a mystic out of you".
