🎙️ EP11｜What If Sacred Texts Were About People All Along?

When we read sacred texts, we encounter trees, seeds, fruit, sheep, birds, and vineyards. Most people assume these are simply stories about nature. But what if they were never the real subject? What if these things were meant to help us understand something deeper? Why did ancient sages use trees to describe life, seeds to describe growth, and sheep to describe people? If sacred texts were written in parables, then perhaps the world around us is the key to understanding them. In this episode, we explore a thought-provoking possibility: What if sacred texts were never really about trees, sheep, or seeds? What if they were about people all along? Once you begin reading with this perspective, many passages that once seemed confusing may start to make sense. Perhaps sacred texts are not primarily describing the outside world. Perhaps they are describing the human world. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you'd like to explore these ideas more deeply, you're welcome to join our online Tao Te Ching study group.
