About this listen
Every one of these stories is about you. (Anthony de Mello)
Everyone loves stories, and in this audiobook, the best-selling author of Sadhana: A Way to God shares 124 stories and parables from a variety of traditions both ancient and modern. Each story resonates with life lessons that can teach us inescapable truths about ourselves and our world.
De Mello's international acclaim rests on his unique approach to contemplation, and ability to heighten self-awareness and self-discovery. His is a holistic approach, and in the words of one reviewer, his mysticism cuts across all times and peoples, and is truly a universal invitation.
The Song of the Bird uses the familiar yet enduring medium of the story to illustrate profound realities that bring us in touch with the problems and concerns of daily life, as well as with our common spiritual quest. The aim is to develop the art of tasting and feeling the message of each story to the point that we are transformed. Let the story speak to your heart, not to your brain, the author directs. This may make something of a mystic out of you.
Beautifully narrated by Homer Todiwala, this is indeed a volume to treasure, to share, and to listen to many times over, for it is everyone's best companion on the road to spiritual growth.

Story
We were brainwashed by society into building our life on the unquestioned belief that without money, power, success, approval, romance, etc., we cannot be happy. Suppose there is a way of waking up from all that, where what is false and neurotic within you would drop with little or no effort on your part and your eyes would open to the reality of joy surrounding you. Here it is: Stop Fixing Yourself, the new book by Anthony De Mello that helps you rediscover the life you were meant to live.

Story
The Way to Love reveals that there is another way besides laborious self-pushing on the one hand and stagnant acquiescence on the other. It is the way of self-understanding. These things in you that you struggle to fix just need to be understood. If you understood them, they would change, and you would discover that here and now is all is well. Though everything seems a mess, all is well. You would discover that you are already happy and fulfilled right now, and always have been, though you don’t yet know it.

Story
In Sadhana: A Way to God, Anthony De Mello offers an unparalleled approach to joy and inner peace that brings the whole person to prayer—body and soul, heart and mind, memory and imagination. There are 47 exercises that relaxes the body, quiets the mind, heals the past, connects the self to the world and beyond to all that is, moving toward a state of stillness in which you and God are one. Drawing on Christian scripture and the sacred texts of the East, De Mello creates a path that transcends time, culture, and religion.

Story
Anthony de Mello was one of the most important inspirational writers and spiritual teachers of our time, and in Wellsprings he offers great insights into our spiritual impulse to be free. We need to follow this impulse if we are to rediscover life and live it fully. Most of us are living on delusions, on crazy ideas about everything, about love, about relationships, about happiness, about joy. We are living out false ideas about how the world should be. You’ll come to see that what Christ said is true, namely that the kingdom of heaven is at hand, there for the taking.
