Perspective
By zevi770 · February 7, 2014
Many perspectives form the mechanism from which people believe that their perceptive is right.
For example, there is the Christian take.
The Muslim take.
The atheistic secular somewhat hedonistic take.
But what is the Jewish take?
Ironically, Judaism being as it is a religion so concerned with simply adhering to the Mitzvos has many many takes, most of them unbeknown to the observers of Judaism.
The bottom line take of Judaism is twofold:
On one hand, the goal of all mankind is e-pluribus-unum, which means quite simply, we need to identify, hence love, hence treat one another as we wish to be treated!
But for this to take place, simultaneously, we need to realize, that each and every one of us is God’s servant – for by doing so two things automatically take place: the first is, when I love, my ego gets inflated; hence I can just as easily turn to anger, as we see in relationships; and secondly, as I am God’s servant, fulfilling his will, and so are you, hence, we share something infinitely valuable in common!
