In his book, I Love You - Letters to Children, Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda explains lucidly the most profound truths about how love enhances and even sustains our life. He emphasises that while each of us naturally seeks love, in the process we often forget that it is actually ours to give. And it is only in giving that we truely receive; only in actively reaching out to others do we really find fulfilment within.

This time-tested, insighful message is the inspiration for the story "Little Yash is Filled Up". Because of their innate simplicity and sensitivity, children are often more receptive than adults to such ideas, and if they imbibe them in their formative years, then those ideas become an integral part of their personality.
