These weren't gods or grown-ups. These were kids. Prahlad who never stopped praying. Dhruva who became a star. Nachiketa who questioned Death. Abhimanyu who walked into the maze. Kids who were braver than most adults.
Lessons in this chapter
Prahlad Who Never Gave Up — His own father wanted him to stop praying. He put him in fire, threw him off cliffs. Prahlad kept praying.
Little Dhruva and the Star — He was five years old. His stepmother said he didn't deserve his father's lap. So he went to find something bigger.
Nachiketa's Question to Death — Most people run from Yama. This boy sat at his door for three days and asked the hardest question anyone has ever asked.
Abhimanyu Knew the Way In — He was sixteen. He learned the secret of the Chakravyuha while still in his mother's womb. He went in knowing he might not come out.
