Christian Heaven With Buddhist Nirvana

[Progress]

So in the bible, I read about a passage about how Heaven was staring into the face of God. Now staring into the face of God was suppose to be enchanting and awe striking. But what is God? A being in the sky? I think not. I actually came about this theory by knowing that nature rewards those with good karma and punishes those with bad karma. I believe in the laws of the universe which are unbreakable(as far as humans know). Now in Hinduism, Brahma(The Chief Hindu God(Could be explained as the only God really and all others as dieties) is everything. We are all apart of Brahma. Just as we are all apart of the Universe. So I concluded Universe/Nature= Brahma(Hindu God) = God in Christianity. So when the bible mentioned staring into God and being "enchanted" could it be like Enlightenment/Nirvana where we stare into nature. In essence we become one with God/Nature. Or in buddhist terms, with the world. Is this not what Enlightenment/Nirvana is? Destroying the ego and becoming one with the world. 

 

On a side note, as a result of that theory here are so notes-Hell is temporary and really is just suffering Karmic consequences. Purgatory would be living with an ego or perhaps the time between lives(assuming the concept is true).

LSD and some mushrooms would then be a literally taste of heaven as the ego breaks down.

I put "Enlightenment/Nirvana" so it would be easier to understand but Nirvana would be Heaven as it is the utter end of suffering according to Buddhism.

Enlightenment would be "Heaven on earth" in regards to Buddhism since it takes some more enlightenment in other lives to be broken out of the cycle.

Jesus would then be another Buddha. Jesus just used magic to perform "miracles." That Magic is the result of being one with nature and bending the world to will. Buddha was able to use magic as well but shunned it.

For those who didn't get it, Nature, Universe, Brahma and God are one and the same

For the story about Peter and Jesus walking on water would be an example of this. Peter was capable of magic. If you look into real magic, belief is the most dominant force of a spell. Jesus, Buddha, and Peter just had high development of the skill

Nirvana would be permanent Heaven as a result of many enlightenments in regards to Buddhism.

Stop trying to understand everything and fall in,love,with God.

[Leo Gura]

You are God!

All these teaching are pointing to the exact same thing. Your existential nature as pure empty awareness (God). When you experience it, it will have divine flavors and you'll immediately go, "Ohhhhh!!! Of course! This is what all the religious people call God. Duh! How silly."

[Davidus]

@Leo Gura That sounds great! BUT are you 100% sure that WE ARE GODS? Our existential nature might not be pure awareness, I'm sorry but the conception of enlightenment MAY be nonsense. One needs to be careful.

We are not Gods, there is only God. There is no one to be a God.

You need to experience this, till then it's good you stay skeptical of what you believe. Get to the truth yourself. Question everything, all your beliefs, and see what's left for yourself.

[Davidus]

@vizual I have enough experience and the only thing that I can say with confidence is that nothing is true _ every thing is permitted  How do you know that I am skeptical? I guess you haven't understood what I said. Please read the comment more analytically. Thanks for the unnecessary advice.

The conception of enlightenment IS nonsense.

But the reality of it is undeniable.

Do the work yourself and see.

Man, these kind of subject make me speechless for a while, God, religion, anti-religion, knowing and believing (or seeing), life purpose and ... stuff.

do we REALLY want to know those stuff sometimes? i mean what if you knew those stuff for Granted, i mean 100% granted but it told you you were all wrong, or all right, or all right but the strongest part that you believe in was wrong, we might feel arrogant and say "i will survive, i will be cool with it" but i believe that impact would be shockingly huge.

some of us really care about those subjects and want to know, so people who have low believe and not interested in religions or spirituality for any kind of reasons won't understand the weight of those questions and would dismiss them quickly, but won't that be dangerous or even more dangerous to care too much about them too? where is the red line?

The red line is that "you" (whomever you might be) believe that an illusion (the chimp) can give birth to any type of truth whatsoever

@Ayla not at all, it was, in matter of fact, a complement.

@Cookiesliyr It's better to care much. Our lifetime on earth is finite.
