(Script originally planned for the opening of the Interfaith Youth Camp)
Voiceover: Once upon a time, there was a river…
Voiceover: I am the most beautiful; he said… I have crystal clear water and beautiful sandy beds…
Along came a fish and told him, “You are wrong, I went to another river east of here… it is wider and has more water than you…
The river was upset but he followed his own path of self-discovery…
Then, came a frog. The river told him; come my friend, enjoy my soft sandy beds…
The frog replied…there is a river west of here with sands as soft as silk…
The river was disheartened but he kept on his path of self-discovery…
One day he came to a place where a raging river was cutting across and merging with him…
Who are you? He inquired…
I am the river of the East; he said, come let me share my raging waters and wide banks with you…
The river was pleased… he joined the East river and became a beautiful wide river…
In a few days, the new river suddenly came to a curve and far in front there was a river coming towards them… it had the most beautiful white sandy banks…
Who are you? He inquired…
I am the West river, come on, join with me and enjoy my soft, sandy sands…
Now the three rivers flowed majestically as a raging, powerful river with beautiful sands and clear water…
One day, their lives came to an abrupt end… they could see a vast expanse of water in front of them…
Who is this, the river asked the other two
This is the ocean, we are all part of this – You and I are one… come let’s merge with the ocean and experience a whole new world of freedom and bliss…
The river was happy… he is now united with all the rivers… he did not have any imperfections anymore… he is one with the ocean… He is the ocean…
