The Human Feast: Why Pickle Isn't the Main Course

The Human Feast: Why Pickle Isn't the Main Course

Imagine life as a nourishing meal. Humanity is the main course—the essential sustenance that gives us life and purpose. It is supported by balanced side dishes of love, care, and kindness, which complete the plate and make it wholesome.

Spirituality is a vital supplement. It steps in to address deficiencies, helping to restore balance when we face seasons of stress, anxiety, and inner emptiness.

Religion, in this metaphor, is the pickle. Its intense, tangy flavour can enhance a meal for those who enjoy it, but its absence doesn't undermine the meal's fundamental nutrition. It is a matter of personal taste and tradition, to be used or avoided as one prefers.

The crucial wisdom is this: Unless we fill our plates with the main course of humanity and the nourishing sides of love, care, and kindness, our lives will remain profoundly incomplete, no matter what else we add.

A final, stark warning: If we mistake the spicy pickle for the entire meal and rely on it entirely, we risk spiritual indigestion. This over-reliance can lead to a corrosive "eternal diarrhoea" called hate and a debilitating "dysentery" born from the fear of hell, poisoning our inner well-being and our connection to others.
