Quote by: Morality Games Accurate knowledge of Buddhism in the West among laymen suffers from the failure of English terminology to effectively represent the nuanced concepts of the religion.

That is very much true with any other religion as well ! Since, what is said by the preacher in his language when translated into other laguages, error creeps in. Even when somebody writes commentary the originality of the view also changes to large extent.

But then, with our rational and unbiased thinking, Absolute Reality could be debated on and on !!

Nope. Buddha taught there was no 'soul' per se, and that the elements of consciousness which lead to the illusion of 'soul' do not stay the same (at least not in the world of impermenance).

What you have tried to explain is true but I am sure you confident what exactly you have understood and want to tell.

Let me tell you the illusion you are talking is the illusion of duality. The absolute Reality is that Only SELF (Universal Consciousness) exists and rest is illusion. Whatever is illusion is the world of impermenance, while the SELF (Absoulte Reality) the world of permenance. You may also term it NIRVANA stage.

The world of impermenance on the hand exists due to SELF attaining meatphysical minds which opt to have a physical bodies and imagine due to illusion as individuals consciiousness like you and me.

It is taught by most schools of Buddhism that Nirvana is freedom from impermenance (change, temporality) by entrance into the static (unchanging, eternal). Once you are in Nirvana, nothing ever changes -- it is a never ending experience of immutable bliss. Motion comes to a stand still.

That is true ! It simply means to remove illusion of duality of separate consciousness than Universal one due to metaphysical mind.
