Akhyayikas IV: 100 Hilarious Parables to Instil Wisdom Through Wit

By Rajesh Seshadri

Meet Mulla Nasruddin - the legendary wise fool, equal parts philosopher and prankster, mystic and mischief-maker. With his razor-sharp wit and absurd logic, he makes us laugh - and just when we are off guard, he slips in a slice of truth so sharp it leaves a mark.

In this fourth instalment of the Akhyayikas series, Rajesh Seshadri curates 100 of the most side-splitting, brain-tickling tales of Mulla Nasruddin, retold with flair and insight. Each story is followed by a reflective commentary that unpacks its hidden wisdom, inviting readers to see themselves - and the world - in a whole new light.

Drawn from centuries of oral tradition and spiritual storytelling, these parables transcend religion, geography, and time. They offer not only entertainment, but profound provocations for introspection. Whether you are laughing at Nasruddin's antics or pausing to absorb a deeper message, this book will stay with you long after you've put it down.

You don't read this book - you experience it. Flip to any page, read just one story, and let it marinate. Some lessons reveal themselves instantly. Others bloom later, like a good joke or a deep truth... or both.

Perfect for spiritual seekers, lovers of wit, or anyone who believes that laughter and learning should go hand in hand.
