What can a Roman general teach you about leadership? How can a Japanese ghost story explain a guilty conscience? What does a Finnish epic reveal about overcoming failure? The answers to our most modern problems are often locked away in our most ancient stories. In this ambitious and illuminating volume, author Rajesh Seshadri acts as your guide on an unforgettable journey into the heart of world mythology. From the halls of Asgard to the foundation of Rome, from the great serpents of Aztec lore to the tragic heroes of the Persian Shahnameh, this collection gathers 100 of humanity's most powerful tales. Each story is artfully retold and followed by a profound reflection on its practical application in our own lives, careers, and relationships. This is more than a book of myths. It is a book of insights. It is a toolkit for the soul, drawing on the timeless wisdom of ten great cultures to help you understand your own journey. Prepare to see the world-and yourself-in a new, more mythic light.
