It is amazing how the word *maya* have been translated into *illusion*.
The word *maya* is related to the english word *measurement* and even
*meter* (which we use in Europe instead of feets). *Measure* in Norwegian is
*måle*. In Greek and Latin we find *meter* and *matrix*
The point is that - normally - we does NOT see the world around us *as it
is*, in it's own inscrutable SUCHNESS (sat). Instead, we are entrapped by
our own DESCRIPTION of the world. And the describtion is never the
described. To say that things and incidents is *maya* is to ascertain that
the things and incidents around us - according to our own relative view -
are our own relative measurements (means of descriptions) rather than
nature's own realities.
When looking over a field, a farmer would see N acres with cultivable land.
A city architect would see a potensial for house-building. Scientists within
different fields would see the home of certain species and vegetables, a
place with certain chemical, physical ingrediences etc.
This is obvious. However, when we look at ourselves, we have certain belief
systems about ourselves ("I'm too old for this", "I'm not worthy for these
mission", "I'm ugly", "Others are better than me", "I'm black", "I'm white",
"I'm this and that", ), that is - belief systems about ourselves impregnated
by social and cultural factors. And so mesmerising are these belief
systems - based on categories, placing people in subdivisions, classes,
placing a *stamp* on a person - that our own assemblage point of
consciousness is entrapped by these bullshit.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO *CATEGORIZE* SOMETHING UNIQUE! Every man and every woman
is a Star. Every person is as unique as a snow crystal, and no one can
substitute *You* in the whole Universe. There is no person more important
than You!
Another misinterpreted word is *Karma* - meaning cause and effect. Some have
interpreted is as *punishment* - another echoe from moralism, and other call
it *destiny*. Karma is - plain and simple - a name for a cause which makes
an effect, which creates another cause, making another effect etc.
In the western world we have another name for it. We call it an *Evil
circle*.
