Judaism, our significance in eternity and panentheism
What do the Judaic concepts of monotheism and the soul imply about our significance in eternity?
Eternity existing outside our universe (panentheism – our universe lies within eternity) implies the possibility of significance beyond the universe.
The concept of the soul being tied directly to this eternity implies we may have a significance tied directly to eternity itself.
Humans, as far back as 1500 BC (see within free books this site: Panentheism Addressing Validation by Science, Religion, Philosophy and Prophecy - Hinduism), expanded the possibility of their significance into eternity itself.
Judaism played a key part in providing the bridge for the concept of monotheism to spread to the other half of the world, to the West.
The concept of significance being directly tied to eternity elevated our perception of our importance, expanded immensely our view of existence, for now existence was no longer confined by the boundaries of our universe.
Now humankind was able to begin thinking in terms of belonging to the whole universe rather than just our planet or our solar system.
Through an understanding of the source of the soul and the place to which a soul travels after death, we provided a view of ourselves capable of withstanding any discoveries we might make through the field of science which was to evolve later in history.
Science was not to become a significant influence in our society for over 2,500 years after the birth of Judaism. Why the need to prepare now for the concept of monotheism, the soul existing in eternal existence and panentheism?
The concept of monotheism, the soul, and eternal life were ideas that would need time to expand throughout the western world.
These concepts would need time to marinate in a kettle of tradition and culture.
Tradition and culture themselves needed time to evolve and age.
The concepts, traditions, and culture needed time to become an integrated part of our society worldwide.
The direction we took as a species in terms of the perception we had of ourselves, our universe, and a Causative Force was just one of many that could have taken place.
Panentheism, monotheism and an eternal soul provided a continually expanding perception of the size of the Causative Force as well as a continually expanding perception of our potential both individually and as a species regarding life in our universe as well as beyond the boundaries of our universe.
