Pages : 40
Book Description
جادو کا گھوڑا دو بھائیوں کی کہانی ہے، ایک جو کہ عملی فنون میں مہارت رکھتا ہے، اور دوسرا، شہزادہ تمبل،جس کے بارے میں سمجھا جاتا ہے کہ وہ صرف خواب دیکھتا رہتا ہے۔ ان کے والد، بادشاہ ممکن ایک مقابلے کا اعلان کرتے ہیں، کہ لوگ 'دلچسپ اور مفید ایجادات' بنائیں۔ جو شے ایک بڑھئی بناتا ہے وہ بظاہر ایک سادہ جادو کا گھوڑ ا دکھائی دیتا ہے، جس کی کوئی خاص قدر نہیں معلوم ہوتی۔لیکن جب شہزادہ تمبل زیادہ غور سے دیکھتا ہے، اسے معلوم ہو جاتا ہے کہ گھوڑا جادوئی طریقے سے اپنے سوار کو کسی بھی جگہ پر لے جا سکتا ہے جو سوار کے ذہن میں ہو۔ اس طرح، شہزادہ تمبل بہت کچھ سیکھتا ہے، اور بالآخر یہ جان لیتا ہے کہ اس کی 'دلی تمنا' کیا ہے۔ یہ کتاب ادریس شاہ کی تحریر کردہ باتصویر تعلیمی کہانیوں کی سیریز میں سے ایک ہے۔ ان کہانیوں نے ہزار سالوں سے زیادہ لوگوں کے دل اور دماغ جیت لیے ہیں۔ یہ کہانیاں بنائی گئی ہیں بچوں کو سکھانے کے لیے کہ وہ اپنے مفروضات کا معائنہ کریں اور خود سے سوچیں۔ صوفی روایت میں بچوں کی کہانی، تفریحی یا لوک کہانی، اور سکھانے والی یا وسیلہ فراہم کرنے والی کہانی کے بیچ ایک تسلسل ہے۔ کہانی بچوں کو مشکل حالات کا سامنا کرنے میں مدد دے سکتی ہے اور انہیں کچھ دے سکتی ہے جس کا وہ سہارا لے سکتے ہیں۔ بیک وقت، وہ بڑوں میں زیادہ گہری سمجھ اجاگر کر سکتی ہے۔ The Magic Horse is the story of two brothers, one skilled in the practical arts, and the other, Prince Tambal, considered by most people to be only a dreamer. Their father, the King, announces a competition to produce "interesting and useful devices" - the entry produced by a woodcarver appears to be only a simple wooden horse - apparently of little value. But, when Prince Tambal looks more closely, he discovers that the horse is able to magically transport its rider to whatever place is in the rider's mind. In this way, Prince Tambal comes to learn a great many things, and eventually comes to know "his heart's desire." This book is one of a series of illustrated Teaching-Stories by Idries Shah, stories which have captivated hearts and minds for more than a thousand years. The stories are designed to help children learn to examine their assumptions and to think for themselves. In the Sufi tradition there is a continuum between the children's story, the entertainment or folklore story, and the instructional or instrumental story. A story can help children deal with difficult situations and give them something to hold on to. It can, at the same time, stimulate a deeper understanding in adults.

A Lion Called Christian

Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A stirring tale of a rare bond formed between humans and an animal.”—Time Two men. One baby lion. What could go wrong? A Lion Called Christian tells the remarkable story of how Anthony “Ace” Bourke and John Rendall, visitors to London from Australia in 1969, bought a boisterous lion cub in the pet department of Harrods. For several months, the three of them shared a flat above a furniture shop on London’s King’s Road, where the charismatic and intelligent Christian quickly became a local celebrity, cruising the streets in the back of a Bentley, popping in for lunch at a local restaurant, even posing for a fashion advertisement. But the lion cub was growing up—fast—and soon even the walled church garden where he went for exercise wasn’t large enough for him. How could Ace and John avoid having to send Christian to a zoo for the rest of his life? A coincidental meeting with English actors Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers, stars of the hit film Born Free, led to Christian being flown to Kenya and placed under the expert care of the “father of lions” George Adamson. Incredibly, when Ace and John returned to Kenya to see Christian a year later, they received a loving welcome from their lion, who was by then fully integrated into Africa and a life with other lions. A video of this reunion has become a YouTube classic. Originally published in 1971, and now fully revised and updated with more than 50 photographs of Christian from cuddly cub in London to magnificent lion in Africa, A Lion Called Christian is a touching and uplifting true story of an indelible human-animal bond. It is destined to become one of the great classics of animal literature.
