“My claim is simply that the literary approach is one necessary way to read and interpret the Bible, an approach that has been unjustifiably neglected.

“We need others for our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Without others we are nothing. Our sense that we are an island, an independent, self-sufficient individual, bears no relation to reality. It is closer to the truth to picture ourself as a cell in the vast body of life, distinct yet intimately bound up with all living beings. We cannot exist without others, and they in turn are affected by everything we do. The idea that it is possible to secure our own welfare while neglecting the welfare of others, or even at the expense of others, is completely unrealistic.” NeedsWellsIdeasSelfBodyRealitySpiritualTurnsIndividualEmotionalBearsRelationIndependentBoundsSecureCellsWell BeingWelfareIslandsSufficientNeglectExpensesAffectedSelf Sufficient Author:Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
