This week, our first story comes from the religion of Jainism. We learn the lesson of compassion in this episode.  

In our episode, we share an adapted version of  "Compassion of an Elephant- Story of Meghakumar" from the Jain Digest April 2016 Issue and an adapted version of “The New Girl: Right Action.” The Buddha's Apprentice at Bedtime: Tales of Compassion and Kindness for You to Read with Your Child, to Delight and Inspire, by Dharmachari Nagaraja, Watkins, 2016, pp. 32–35.
