Seeing the Whole Picture PT. 2
There is an ancient teaching that has no houses of worship, no priests, no conversion ceremony. No one needs to abandon his or her heritage to embrace it; only to return, to dig deep, back to the essential truths that are buried within every belief system known to humankind and to discard the outer layers that may have distorted its message.
You may have heard of this teaching, preserved and transmitted over the millennia by the Jewish People —although it is older even than that ancient nation: That all religions sprouted from a single seed and share a single root.
According to this tradition, Noah became this single root when G-d renewed the earth after the flood. Just as G‑d gave different fingers to the hand, so has He given different ways to men.” These ways were based on a set of laws that Noah had received from Adam, that G-d renewed and expanded in his time. It is a guide from beyond to show humankind how to create a sustainable world that would never again face destruction.
And it is a teaching that brings many voices into harmony, for it is the essence of all of them, yet does not deny to any its own unique beauty. After all, once you have found truth in your own backyard, that doesn’t mean no one else is allowed a backyard. Rather, in each backyard is another glowing ember of the truth known to Noah. Each people has cultured and developed a certain wisdom, a certain beauty that others lack.
So that’s what we are presenting here; A guide to finding the truths within the traditions we already have. For in those latent truths lie all that we need to breathe together as one harmonious humankind embracing one healthy Planet Earth That we all share!
