#BookOverview Motivational Verses from Sanskrit Texts – By Dr K Aravinda Rao

The book is a collection of over a hundred motivational verses from ancient texts like the Mahabharata, the Panchatantra, the Hitopadesa, the Subhashita-s of Bhartrihari & such other texts

@IndicaBooks
@IndicaBooks The motivational verses from the book focuses on teaching ethical behaviour and also bring to light the blunt truth behind human behaviour in different situations
@IndicaBooks These verses are like the 'box of truisms' and 'words to live by', in Louis Mac Neice's words

They may not be fully understood by the kids straightaway, but they reveal their full flavor as the kids grow and face the realities and problems of life
@IndicaBooks They are like the time release capsules which release themselves slowly
