Bodhisattva, Karmic Shepard, part 1

Many Eastern spiritual paths believe that all beings are ultimately not
separate individuals, but are instead eternal and recurring individual
manifestations of a single all-pervading creating Consciousness, both
creator and perceiver. In this schema Shakespeare was right: "All the
world's but a stage." Perceived reality is paper thin.  Real reality is a
unifying Consciousness that stages a play for itself.  Shiva and Shakti.
Underneath all perceived reality is the creator who is us, both Shiva and
Shakti, who are one.

So, next is the Matrix-like concept that everything we see is an illusion,
a deception.  But in this case the deception is a state assumed voluntary,
like taking a drug.  In this matrix God has intentionally given himself a
Mickey to see if he can find his way back to himself. A perverse god,
willingly creating bad in order to experience it, which wouldn't be so bad,
except we are his vehicles of experience. Creation in this scenario is a
game God is playing with himself.  How postmodern is that?
