Three Parables. A Spiritual Short Story by Leo Tolstoy

Here the master story-teller provides three distinct parables, inexplicably related, that provide a deep glimpse into spiritualty. One of Tolstoy's finest insights and understandings.

As King Solomon once said, " There is nothing new under the sun."

😇 “It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, Because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: Great is thy faithfulness.”❤️🔑🙏🏽 ‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3:22-23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

THIS IS AS GOOD AS HAPPENING NOW!! DO WE EVER LEARN??? 😢 Paraphrasing::: WIDE is the road that leads to destruction and MANY are on it.... NARROW is the gate that leads to LIFE and FEW FIND IT.

It was probably written in the late 1800s but see how true it is today given the fact that human nature does not change. Thank you for sharing Tolstoy's spirituality and genius. I love classic literature and bedtime stories. ❤❤❤

To think back over the history of mankind is overwhelming. War has always outdistanced love. To love seems to open the door to abuse. Just read the news and see how contemporary love is defined. Lord have mercy.

What he wrote so long ago, is relevant to today and all it's problems. Still the same solutions.

[@Xorcist777]

Thanks.

Very contemporary.

It's what love there is within families that has made it possible for us to survive to this day, because the evil spoken of here also survives to this day.

[@TheBestRussianLiterature]

Thank you for translating the book

Lies?

😢Even The Buddha sat for a few days under the tree, feeling that what he had to share would be rejected outright.

[@claybrackeen8798]

"According to Christ's teaching, in order to annihilate evil we must not employ violence against it, but must destroy it from the root with love." (5:30)

[@mackrobertson2187]

In the final parable, the obvious decision would be to turn back and find the path again

[@robertallanerasmus6824]

No. No turning back.

Many of what are regarded as weeds end up being food or of other use. That being said, lawns over more functional plants will prove to be more of a problem than is now realized. So much of what is needed is treated like a luxury and vice versa. Distinction from action as one's identity might be the secret to happiness.

Dad had a book called " Plowman's Folley".. Like to find the book...! ?

And the plastic waste became the fault of the consumer …

[@larrywright5891]

Consumers properly dispose or recycle and there is no blame. Yet that is not true.
