Parabrahm is a manifestation of Maya and therefore illusory.

My views are:

Karma sprang from ParaBrahm.
Peoples opinion of  Karma are clouded by illusion.
The world is an illusion, but the Truth is  shown there.
There is in reality only ParaBrahm.
So is Parabrahm merely  an illusion?

Well, Chuck, you Being a heretic and  all, I Would of course expect such an 
answer coming from you.  :-)

But, one could ask oneself:

What is Karma and what is  visdom...

I rather like my comment on God  when my wife had her stroke and was in a

coma for two weeks, thus  causing one of her sisters to comment that "God 
has a

reason for  this." My response was, "If your idiot God knew what he was  
doing

in the first place she would not be here!"

Here are some of my  favorite quotes from

Meister Eckhart (c.1260-c.1328, German  mystic):

"God is exempt from all things and he is

all  things."

"He who thinks that he sees God, if he

see aught sees  naught of God."

"I do not find God outside myself nor

conceive  him excepting as my own and in me."

"If I were not, God would not be  God."

"All creatures are pure nothingness. I

do not say they are  small or

petty: they are pure nothingness. p

"The being [of  things] is God."

"The being and the nature of God are

mine. . .  . the spark in the soul is beyond

time and space; the  soul's

light is uncreated and cannot be created, it

takes  possession of God with no mediation; the

core of the soul and the core  of God are one."

"Why I pray God to rid me of God is  because

conditionless being is above God and above

distinction.  d

"God works, the Godhead does no work."

Do the IDEAS given in these quotes by Eckhart

relate to what  is written about "God" in THE

SECRET DOCTRINE and THE MAHATMA  LETTERS?

If so,how?
