Sadko: A Russian epic

Sri Chinmoy likes to tell his students illumining stories , a genre that I started to like more and more over the years.

I am lucky to have a few very good Russian friends, and perhaps it is from them that I have acquired a predilection for anything Russian.

So, recently I have encountured the russian bylina of Sadko. Bylina (pronounced “BIL-lin-a”) means “what has been."
