Leaf Talks Peace : Buddha's Message of Harmony
Leaf Talks Peace : Buddha's Message of Harmony
Priya Kumari
Age (years) : 5 - 8
"Leaf Talks Peace" transports readers to the serene setting of the Bodhi tree, where Buddha meditates and discovers profound lessons from a humble Peepal leaf. Through keen observation, he perceives the intricate web of interdependent origination of life within the leaf — a delicate dance involving the Sun, Earth, clouds, time, space, and consciousness. This co-existence reflects a peaceful harmony where each element contributes to the leaf's existence.
In this narrative, the leaf becomes a powerful symbol of human well-being, arising from interdependence rather than coercion. The story unfolds to reveal the interconnectedness of the entire universe, breathing harmoniously within the confines of a single leaf.
"Leaf Talks Peace" aims to instill a sense of harmony and care in young readers. It emphasizes that true harmony emerges when there is peace among humans, with nature, and within ourselves. This harmony flourishes when differences are respected, when everyone recognizes the interdependent origination of life, and when there is a continual evolution of thoughts rather than rigid dogmas. The overarching message is one of unity, peace, and the beauty found in the interconnected fabric of existence.
