The Garden of Eden or the human body

The story of Adam and Eve outlined in the Bible is better explained in the Suundi language of Central Africa. The description of the Garden of Eden is more like that of the human body: fruit trees, seed-bearing herbs, rivers and watered lands are a marvellous review of the functions of the body in its initial stages. The initialisation of the body was programmed in stages, allowing the higher consciousness, the human being placed in the garden of the body, to take control of the body’s functions and learn to interact with the world. But consciousness ruined its learning process by prematurely using the sexual organ: the forbidden fruit. The early introduction of sex was a fiasco accompanied by traumas that still weigh heavily on the quality of the human experience, giving rise to many of the universal customs and practices surrounding sex, which are the sad and little-known legacy of Adam and Eve.
