Thank you so much Kyle.
I would choose the Hindu rendition of the creation found in the Vedas. The Vedas strongly affected Bhuddism and Jainism. Respect for other creatures and other’s beliefs is inherent in this story, along with creation theory that was way ahead of it’s time. The oral tradition goes back to 1500 B.C. The first written version dates back to around 300 B.C. The video link below was designed for non-Hindu viewers. If you can tolerate the Hindu reading, (more like singing), there is a translation in between the readings and some absolutely gorgeous special effects and photography. I find it beautiful. I hope you will too.
