Inhaltsangabe

The seven stories of Genesis, of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph, were passed down orally by the storytellers of antiquity before they were recorded in the Torah and Old Testament. Their metaphorical nature gives them a much deeper meaning than if they are listened to as literal history. We have forgotten how to listen to them as the ancients listened. A group of five of us listened in the state of ecstatic trance, trance that revealed their deeper meanings. The first revelation revealed what Eve learned from eating of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, the dichotomy of good vs. evil. The endless list of such dichotomies with which we have lived for the last several thousand years: pain vs. comfort, love vs. hate, us vs. them, Israel vs. Palestine, etc., bring conflict and anguish to our controlling, patriarchal world. As we move into the New Age, we return to the matriarchal world of compassion and love, the world of such conflict dissolves, opening the gate for the return to the Garden of Eden.
