Sweetened Condensed Milk

Sacred Stories from many Cultures

by Shyam Dodge

An Amazon Kindle Bestseller

From African tales about spirit and reincarnation, to Zen stories about acceptance, Sufi stories about Beauty, and Hindu folktales about monkeys who save the world through discovering their own innate divinity, this book seeks to inspire through the vehicle of Myth.

It’s Sweetened Condensed Milk.

The Milk of words has been refined and condensed into a sweet and rich medicine for the burning heart.  It is a stirring of honey into cream, reflecting the particular insight of a former life-long monk who has grown pragmatic and realistic in his approach to grief and sustained joy.
