In short , a sort of religious John Muir alone in the arms of the infiniteness of Yosemite , but over in rural Palestine . After living in the desert for some time with other "new-agers" of their day , he recieved his "calling" , if I remember correctly ? The message is about the greatness and glory that is "God" , and the fairness and compassion that may reside and be awakened in the human heart ...given the surrounding glory of creation and all it contains , and should inspire . One feels the ocean of life within , and that glory , one easily gives away all one has, and Jesus had little to begin with but that glorious vision which is enough rapture for all of us ? Eienstein didn;t need that much to survive either and even went out walking without his shoes on ....so great men do get entranced just on creation alone...and more intimate with the workings witrhin their own psyche's, where the truer world emanates He was not forced to deal with closed in workplaces and modern competition , but more the village and tribal countryside areas...till he met his fate in Jerusalem mixing it up with the powers that be and entrenched worship/ignorance in the big city . He knew of course , that would be his ending. He did well for a young idealistic country preacher, i freeely admit , and the message was new for Rome later on, but had it's roots farther east , imo, and all in all... one that is universal but bestows no uniqueness on Christianity. Your workplace is the battlefield that the prince Arjuna is on ....and where you must learn the biggest lessons ?
