200. IS THE JEWISH TRADITION A MYTH?

THE POWER OF THE BIBLICAL TRADITION

The possibility of gradual development as a “rolling myth” is also unlikely. Beyond the fact that the claim “maybe” can always be raised in any field, and it is not enough to reject an established historical tradition, we have also seen that the Jewish tradition is far from being similar to myths and folk legends that were generally accepted at the time: associated with the force of nature, the prohibition to represent GOD in a statue and picture, the negative descriptions of the people, and the distinct historical characteristics of detailed descriptions of time, places, and names.

All of these constitute a great deviation from all the accepted stories in antiquity. A critical examination comparing the tradition of the revelation of Judaism to the traditions of the other cultures and peoples only highlights the huge gap between them.

We have also seen that the tradition is strengthened by other pillars of Judaism, such as the unique and wonderful history of the People of Israel, which was foretold in the Torah.

Finally, we have shown the general problematic nature of the skeptical approach, which instead of allowing us to learn about the past, blocks from us clear perception and assertions of a stable truth and body of knowledge. We countered the skeptical approach against the Jewish tradition.

YOUR SOUL NEEDS SPIRITUALITY BUT YOU ONLY TRUST REALITY & FACTS

In the spiritual world reside the forces that operate our lives in daily reality. Get to know them, because your happiness depends on them.

While we are selfish creatures with survival mechanisms and animal instincts to achieve more than we need, we’re also wired (DNA & neurotheology) for spirituality and to live for the greater good, for the higher self. For that reason, we are wired to protect our spouse, our family, our country, and be connected to a higher spirituality we call GOD (whatever it is).

We seek to connect to the highest authority which is above human sensual perception. We seek a GOD to be our ultimate guide. Not the GOD that the religions created for us with endless restrictions and imaginary hell and heaven, but the true real GOD.

This book sums up thousands of years and debates to one practical conclusion: is it good for humans to have and believe in (a) GOD or not.

While emerging in the debate, keep an open mind and ignore any religious misconception of who GOD really is. You are here because you care to know if there is a higher authority and if your life will be more fulfilled with GOD in it. You want to know if spirituality is good for you.

WHEN DO YOU FEEL SPIRITUALITY?

The spirit is invisible, but it is revealed in every phenomenon in life that means oneness. It is revealed the moment you look into a person’s eyes and discover that you both feel the same. Spirituality is revealed as soon as you do something that makes others a caravan of joy. It is revealed the moment someone refers to you and you refer to him, and you are both aware of each other’s existence. As a Roman poet so beautifully put it: “Outside all the notions of good and evil there is a field. Will you meet me there?”

Socrates was said to have not come from Athens, but from the world. You and I are two aspects of one reality, united and all-embracing. In unity no differences are eliminated. For things to unite, they do not have to lose their individual identities.  In unity only the separation between them is abolished, which is the difference in value and importance. Then it turns out that everything is one thing.
