For me, it is important to have faith and also to follow some rules-rules that I impose on myself, to have a Daily practice in order to live the most fulfilling life I could live.
Ever wondered how different faiths shape personal beliefs? In this episode of 'My Blueprint: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety', Michael Stoller dives into the contrasts between Judaism and Christianity. Usually steering clear of religion and politics, Michael was inspired by a passage in Rabbi Joseph Telushkin's book, 'Jewish Literacy'. He unpacks how Christianity emphasizes faith as its cornerstone, while Judaism focuses on adhering to the Ten Commandments.
But Michael doesn’t just follow these religious rules; he’s crafted his own set of guidelines, which he calls his spiritual toolbox. This toolbox is a blend of practices and beliefs that help him navigate life’s ups and downs. Michael shares how these principles keep him grounded and focused on his journey. He also highlights the importance of empathy and compassion, explaining that while compassion can be taught, true empathy comes from lived experiences.
For instance, only someone who has run a marathon can truly understand the mental and physical challenges involved. Michael also discusses the value of learning about different religions. He admits that his initial assumptions about the similarities and differences between faiths were simplistic. By reading and exploring diverse perspectives, he discovered that there’s much more to learn. His message is clear: everyone’s spiritual journey is unique, and it’s up to each person to find what works for them.
Tune in to this episode to hear Michael’s thoughts on building your own spiritual toolbox and finding a path that leads to a more fulfilling life.
