Oriental Stories as Techniques in Positive Psychotherapy - with 100 case examples for education and self-help and transcultural understanding - represents a new approach that taps fantasy and intuition and reactivates the individual's potential for conflict-solving. Given the way society is developing now, the solution of transcultural problems will create one of the major tasks of the future. While people of differing cultural circles used to be separated by great distances and came into contact only in unusual circumstances, technical innovations have dramatically increased the opportunities for contact in our time.

IN a beautiful distant kingdom, in which the sun never goes down on its everlasting green gardens, ruled, from the beginning of time even to the present day, Queen Phantasie. With full hands, she used to distribute the abundance of her blessings among her subjects. She did this for many hundreds of years, and was beloved and respected by all who knew her. The heart of the Queen, however, was too great to allow her to stop at her own land with her charities. One day a messenger brought her news of a place called Earth. There she heard that men lived there; who passed their lives in sorrowful seriousness, in the midst of care and toil. In the royal attire of her everlasting youth and beauty, the Queen descended upon the earth. Unto these she sent the finest gifts from her kingdom, and ever since the beauteous Queen came through the fields of earth, men were merry at their labours, and happy in their seriousness. Her children, she also sent forth to bring happiness to all mankind. ….and so the scene is set for the stories and tales in the Oriental Story Book.
