"Genesis" Vs "Rig Veda" Compare and Contrast Essay
There are many myths about where we come from, how we got here, and who created us. Stories like “Genesis” and “Rig Veda” tell how our world was created. Depending on who we are, where we come from, and what we believe in, dramatically affects the way we think about our origin.
Both “Genesis and “Rig Veda” focus in the creation in the creation of our world. This quote states, “And God saw that it was good.” This phrase is being repeated in “Genesis” many times in order to emphasize the desire God had for the creation of the world. The text states, “Ego is the biggest enemy of humans.” “Ego” refers to our feelings; our emotions can transform us into animals. The hunger for power and control can sometimes mislead us from our purpose in life.
Most of the times we get what we want and not what we need. The text states, “Let us make man our image.” We are created of a body, soul, and a spirit. That spirit is what died when Adam and Eve disobeyed God. This quote states, “Desire was the first seed of mind.” This quote shows how powerful a human mind can be. Our actions are determined by what is around us.
Sooner or later we will find our own destiny. This quote states, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and shall cleave to his wife and they shall be one flesh.” This shows that we should follow our parent's footsteps.
We all think differently. That is what makes each of us unique. There are many myths about how we got here, and who created us. I think that as long as we can enjoy our life and have a reason for going forward, we should be okay.
