A newcomer to the Gospels is struck by their simple narrative style: although considerable spans of Jesus’ life are left untold, we are given a vivid picture of daily events during his public life and even his Teaching is often expressed in parables and allegorical tales.
The Master Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov interprets all these familiar tales: the ten virgins going out to greet the bridegroom, the rich man confronting his unjust steward, the householder who hires labourers for his vineyard, the terrified disciples who awaken Jesus as he sleeps through the storm at sea, the question of the tribute owing to Caesar... and his interpretation strips these stories of their restrictive, purely anecdotal character and reveals the underlying, psychological and spiritual realities. Suddenly we realize that these stories relate most intimately to our own inner lives in which the rival forces of materialism and spirituality confront and come to terms with each other.
