Stories are the original teaching tool. Long before there were classrooms or teachers, people gathered to share wisdom through stories. The magic of storytelling is that we learn by imagining. We discover the human potential for generosity through our own experience of hearing or reading the story. This is why the wisdom traditions of the world each have their own rich treasure trove of folktales, myths, legends, parables, and other forms of story.
