Light In The Forest : A Dharmic Landscape for Hindu Kids & their Parents

Christians believe in the Bible. Muslims believe in the Quran. Liberals believe in Liberty. Communists believe in Equality. Waht do Hindus believe in? The answer to that question is Dharma. Hindus believe in Dharma. But the answer to a further question What is Dharma? is not so simple. Hinduism does not provide easy answers to Lifes questions like many other cults and isms that exist in the world today do. We embrace the entirety of this Gods given complexity and try to arrive at a fuzzy understanding of what it means to act in this world with integrity. This complexity may appear daunting or even a waste of time to modern people who are used to quick fix solutions and high speed information exchange. But our failure to deal with complexity leads straight to all the problems that face the modern world today. This book tries to answer that second question for Hindu children (and their parents) not with a set of commandments but by using words and stories to draw a landscape that hopefully feels like home.
