The Origin of Duality

Nonduality is Reality. That was the insight of Jesus and the earliest Christian message of the Kingdom of God. Nonduality is the truth at the core of all great spiritual traditions of the world. But if nonduality is reality, then where did duality come from? If all is One, how did two come about. How did we find ourselves in this seemingly dualistic world? Every religious tradition has its own origin myths to explain this. The Tao Te Ching says simply, “The Tao begot one. One begot two. Two begot three. And three begot the ten thousand things.” That fits into nondualism very well. But what about the Judeo-Christian scriptures? Is there anything in the Genesis creation stories which explains the origin of this dualistic world that we seem to find ourselves in?Yes, indeed! When we read the biblical creation accounts we find the origin of duality explained very well, for those with eyes to see. In this episode I explore the biblical stories of creation, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and the Tree of Life. I explain how they tell of story of the origin of duality. View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
