Elijah the Bodhisattva

This commentary, influenced primarily by Buddhism, explores the life of Elijah from the Bible, interpreting his external experiences as metaphors for internal states of mind. Elijah's journey mirrors a path to enlightenment, culminating in the realization of the non-duality of himself and God. While the focus is on the inner dimension, the commentary also addresses the political aspect, akin to liberation theology's "God's preferential option for the poor," termed here as the "politics of anatta," rooted in Buddhism's principle of not-self.
