THE GARDEN OF EDEN METAPHOR MEANING

I am that I am, not what I think I am therefore I am.

Philosophy is not important until it becomes important, the problem is that when it does, there is no time to think about it.

Besides the natural animal level competition for survival and procreation, the war between nationalists and globalists, and whatever else people chose to engage in, there is underlining journey of the free soul with free choice to descern the right from wrong using consciousness to decide what is the Divine Will vs uncentred from it delusions of the ego.

The variety of variables in the continously unfolding constant change manifests in diversity of experiences and perspectives at any point in time. One really has main two options, to either drop their fake ego and center within the Divine Will and Purpose in Creation, whatever their role as such may be, or one may chose to remain ignorant and proud in their own ego uncentred from their true spiritual reality and as a result growth and purpose.

Such fallen angels decent fast to the depths of hell where egos are more and more real and competitive US vs THEM to a point of bloodshed, war, and suffering of all kinds, until the ego is either destroyed or forced to get enlightened about its true nature and destiny.

The classical Greek / Roman hero's quest, the fool of taro, on the way to enlightenment about their own true identity. The old is new again. One may be a player, a referee or a judge or a spectator or the combination thereof, as a proverb says, to be one who is, is not to be someone else.

The whole point of the Garden of Eden story is that Adam and Eve were one with God and had no notion of their own ego, sense of self, until the primordial serpent offers such opportunity.

Hence we all know what happened soon after the fruit of knowledge was tasted, consumed, and consummated. They became aware that they are naked, who is that guy/girl and what's up with the snake?! They became scared and started to hide their nakedness and from God in fear for their now distinctly separate from God lives. They were exiled from the blessfull paradise with Eve being cursed to suffer in childbirth and Adam needing to protect and provide for his family now that they know the winter is coming.

Long story short, their children, Cain and Abel, are also the archetypes of the same dichotomy of being either with God's Will or on your own ego trip. Abel is easy going happy guy who is doing fuck all aside hunting and gathering, looking after his sheep, and after he sacrificed his fattest one, it pleased God more than the pile of grass offered by Cain after year long sweat tears and complaining while plowing perfectly fine fields for his agricultural I KNOW BETTER THAN NATURE revolution.

Again, we all know what happened there. Cain got so pissed off with rage that he committed first murder and got cursed to wonder the Earth as a result.

The moral of this story is clear: either one acts from ego or transcends Divine Will.

Live! Prosper! Be Well!
