(Moral Stories for Kids) (by Inspiring Reads For Kids)","description":"Free Audiobook,details inside the book\n\n\n\n\n\nThis book is suitable for ages 5-10\n\n\n\nAn uplifting tale about non-violence inspired by a proverb from the world of martial arts.\n\n\n\nBook Description\n\n\nVirtues of a Great Warrior was written after a proverb from the world of martial arts: \"At the beginning of his path, the warrior trains to know how to fight. At the end, he trains to know how to avoid fighting.\"\n\n\nThe tale tells the story of a young warrior who is looking for guidance in the art of the sword. The meeting with a great master reveals to him the real teachings behind the art, his life purpose, and also something greater…\n\n\nThe practice of martial arts brings great control over the body, and balance and mastery over the senses, but if it's not coupled with mind training and correct intention it can become dangerous and destructive. The practitioner must not only learn the techniques externally, but he must also learn to direct the great force he has gained towards benefiting others and the Greater Good. Otherwise, no matter how skillful he becomes at his performance, he will always create more harm than good. If he selfishly uses the practice solely for his own benefit, sooner or later he will lose his inner balance and the Right Way. But if he practices with the correct motivation, he will become a peace-bringer who can bring peace to himself and to his opponent. He will know how to transform aggression into harmony.\n\n\n\nAbout Inspiring Reads for Kids\n\n\nThis book, Virtues of a Great Warrior, is published by Inspiring Reads for Kids, a project which creates mindful illustrated stories with beneficial messages for life.\nAll our stories were written by Ori Avnur, a children's art \u0026amp; animation teacher and a meditation instructor.
