" To understand Jesus and his teachings as they relate to each one's "Sonhood" or Christ potential, it is important to study the larger historical and more universal spiritual context from which these teachings emanated. Jesus' ministry was influenced by Judaism as well as by Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Egyptian mysteries, and Kabbalic and Essene mysticism. For one, Judea was more than illiterate masses of people living in near-desert conditions and conducting simple activities like fishing and carpentry. It was also a cosmopolitan trade center and an ethnic, cultural, philosophical, religious and political melting pot."
