It might be said that Life itself is a metaphor, if you will. Perhaps, a metaphor for the Spirit. It would stand to reason then, as Monica shared, that the metaphor would be in all the great scriptural works of each religion, shared only in a different manner for a different culture in a different time, but always the same story of sorts. This is why one single author, whether able to speak in the tongues of angels, or simply write profusely on a subject of this sort, is no better the vessel than is the next. The metaphor as a result resonates, redounds, and rebounds from myth, to religion, to fairy tales as much as children's allegories, always in a manner telling the story of the Hero, the Grail search, the seeking of the Fleece, or the Tin Man searching for his heart, as much as the Lion for his courage, or Dorothy for home, as much as the Prodigal Son, as much as the lost Tribe of Israel, as much as the story of Job from the Old Testament. We are all the Pilgrims, and the Hero, and the Vagabonds wandering through the Universe, our home, seeking to be restored as rightful heirs to our throne, which we are in fact seated on and don't remember so. As Christ stated: "Know Ye not that Ye are Gods?"
