Listen "Sacred Stories – Myths, Parables, and Legends of Wisdom"
Episode Synopsis
This episode explores the role of storytelling as a spiritual thread uniting humanity. Across religions, sacred stories serve as vessels of truth, memory, and guidance. From Jesus’ parables like the Good Samaritan, to the Buddha’s Jataka tales, Hindu epics such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata, the Exodus story in Judaism, and the Qur’anic tales of prophets in Islam, each tradition uses narrative to shape moral vision and faith. Sikh stories of the Gurus emphasize humility and service, while Indigenous oral traditions link people to land and ancestors through creation myths and legends. Personal tales like the Native American story of two wolves illustrate how stories continue to carry universal wisdom. Ultimately, sacred stories are not merely to be told—they are to be lived, connecting generations in a shared search for meaning.
