Warum vergehen manche Stunden wie im Flug und ein anderes mal ziehen sich wenige Minuten ins Unendliche? Nach einem Beinahe-Unfall beim Apfelpflücken, lässt den kleinen Buddha die Frage warum sich Zeit immer wieder anders anfühlt nicht mehr los. Kurzentschlossen begibt er sich auf Wanderschaft, schließt neue Freundschaften und erlebt wie unterschiedlich man mit der Zeit umgehen kann. Er sammelt erstaunliche Antworten, die dem immer größer werdenden Bedürfnis der Menschen nach mehr Zeit und einem klugen Umgang mit ihr entgegenkommen. Hinreißend und inspirierend.

Le famiglie si riunivano la sera, dopo il lavoro della giornata, e condividevano questi racconti. È da queste storie che si apprendevano le norme di comportamento dei seguaci del Buddha. Come nelle Favole di Esopo, i protagonisti di queste storie possono essere un re, un mercante, un artigiano o un animale.
