description: Tales and Parables occupy a most important place in the teachings of the saints and seers as the allegorical method of presentation an effective way of religious instruction. Sri Ramakrishna the spiritual teacher par excellence that he was however does not make any effort to make his parables obscure; the morals they convey lie on the surface. Many of his parables are drawn from ordinary domestic and social life customary with the people who lived arround him. Thus this collection of the parables published for the first time in separate book form will be of service to all who wish to get some acquaintance with the fundamentals of spiritual life through the interesting medium of parables and stories.
