Original Sin Is A Lie

How Spirituality Defies Dogma and Reveals Our True Self

De: Bob Peck

Narrado por: Bob Peck

“Original sin” is a lie. Jesus, a deeply profound teacher of love and unity, never said a thing about “original sin”. It’s a doctrine invented by Augustine of Hippo over 300 years later.

While there are certainly issues within institutional religion, upon textual examination and spiritual contemplation, there are also beautiful, enduring teachings of collective harmony and inner transformation. Underneath layers of ego, the real message shines through.

“Truth is One, The sages call it by many names.” (Rig Veda)

In this book, author Bob Peck takes us through his own highlights of the “spiritual buffet line”: from present-embracing Zen Buddhists to insightful Indigenous shamans and compassionate karma yogis. He explores the avatar doctrine of the Bhagavad Gita, the work of Byron Katie, new science in relation to spirit, and the true loving message of Jesus.

As Peck articulates, the Bible is not infallible, but in certain moments, it does point to the reality of who we are, as does Sri Ramana Maharshi, Carl Jung, Anandamayi Ma, the Gospel of Thomas, and A Course in Miracles. From psychedelics to "the illusion", to Peck’s own learnings along the way, Original Sin Is a Lie is here to point us to a rich spectrum of mystic wisdom across the spiritual traditions and ultimately help us uncover our true nature. What else is there to do?

Bob's book should be assigned at birth...

Original Sin Is a Lie is powerful enough that I believe we should each be assigned a copy at birth, right alongside our social security number. Before reading Bob’s book, I had studied A Course in Miracles, Rumi, the I Ching, and just about every type of mysticism there is. After finishing this book, I felt called to delve more deeply into the words of Jesus and his teachings—and in doing so, I came to understand even more fully the significance of love. For that, I am deeply grateful to Bob. His Instagram posts continue to leave me with big, thought-provoking questions, and his genuine responses to readers make us feel truly connected with him. He speaks from a place of vulnerability, purity, and sweetness, reminding us that we are not born in sin—we are born in love. Listening to him narrate his own work brings that truth home in the most heartfelt way.

Absolutely magical

One of the most well put together and digestible pieces with historical facts that I’ve ever seen
