I would have thought that Truth would cease Karma - surely if we understand something we change our ideas about it

Understanding Truth can cause Karma, because the Beings come from Cosmic Kama...all misunderstanding causes 'bad karma with lessons to follow' ; all knowing causes expanding consciousness or horizons...except the horizons are as well vertical as horizontal.. .and all in between...we have to understand the 3 worlds, tamas, rajas and sattva...beyond this you have to ask a Buddha or Avatar...The 3 worlds are symbologically The Sun, The Moon and The Earth. The Sun is sattva, the Moon is tamas and the Earth rajas. Rajas means work or reality, so we know what to do here: work, work work ( W.W.W.).

There is no karma above Truth

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?
