Game rules versus Universal Laws
Just thought of an interesting way to view our "reality". [Of course this would depend on your perspective on almost everything, but it was an interesting thought.]
Have been wondering recently, how best to integrate New Age teachings with Buddhism. Are they mutally exclusive? Or inter-related? How would you picture them as part of a Venn diagram?
It occurred to me that New Age teachings could potentially be a subset of the Universal Laws, or the ultimate reality. I tend to view New Age as Game rules nowadays.
Meaning we exist in this "world", but have no idea/concept of the Truth or ultimate reality. But this "world" also has its own set of rules and laws to abide by.
It is as if we are playing a board game. We fully comprehend the rules of the game, and we abide by it. But outside of the game, we might or might not be fully in touch with the rules of life.
Does it make sense to you? It does to me, in some convoluted way.
Of course, there isn't a real need to integrate them... *shrugs* whatever
