The Fox with the Golden Tail: A FABLE WITH AN ESOTERIC SIGNIFICANCEBY C.SUBRAMANIA BHARATHI Published in 1914.It is, so to speak forced on me by the importunity of some local friends whom the spirit of the age impels to do something towards knocking down what has been aptly described as the most colossal spiritual fraud of the ages.It is admitted on all hands that the ancient Hindus has scaled the extreme heights of spiritual realisation. But I think, however that the Hindus of the last generation especially the English educated men, have been the biggest guilt of any age or country. And we, of the present generation are resolved that the swindlers shall no longer pursue their trades peacefully in our country. And this is the esoteric meaning of the fable.

Book Description
A Kirkus Best Picture Book of 2020 "A beautiful, fully realized dreamscape." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Little Fox frolics with butterflies, scavenges for food, and searches for new friends—despite his father's warning that danger lurks all around. Then one day he takes a tumble, bumps his head, and starts dreaming of things that reflect both the beauty he's seen and the scary things he's heard. Marije Tolman's ingenious illustrations use a fresh technique that feels like a movie and a dream, starring the cheerful, bright orange Little Fox on grainy mixed media landscapes of blue and green. And when Little Fox wakes up, he's perhaps a little wiser, but still every bit as curious and full of life.

Book Description
Prayer will enable you to get yourself, or anyone else, out of any difficulty on the face of the earth. It is the Golden Key to harmony and happiness. To those who have no acquaintance with the mightiest power in existence, this may appear to be a rash claim, but it needs only a fair trial to prove that, without a shadow of doubt, it is a just one. You need take no one's word for it, and you should not. Simply try it for yourself, and see.
