Reflections

By Idries Shah

This pocket-size collection of wisdoms, sayings and stories inspired by Idries Shah’s observations of our psychology, is like a splash of ice water for the mind.

Small in size, but with a powerful punch, Reflections is a collection of fables, aphorisms, and statements that challenge our conditioned responses.

The book presents unusual perspectives and ideas – some of them jolting – in an attempt to break the mind free of its more conventional patterns of thinking. Like all of Shah’s works, Reflections helps the reader see things as they really are.

As the book’s foreword states, “Do you imagine that fables exist only to amuse or to instruct, and are based upon fiction? The best ones are delineations of what happens in real life, in the community and in the individual’s mental processes.”
