In this publication is this great story of Brahma:
“The Story of Brahma and This Illusion that is Maya
There is an old story from India about the God,Brahma, who was all alone. Nothing existed but Brahma and he was completely bored. Brahma decided to play a game, but there was no one to play the game with. So he created a beautiful goddess, Maya, just for the purpose of having fun. Once Maya existed and Brahma told her the purpose of her existence. She said “Okay, let’s play the most wonderful game, but you have to do what I tell you to do” Brahma agreed and following Maya’s instructions, he created the whole universe. Brahma created the sun, stars, moon, and the planets. Then he created life on earth, the animals, the oceans, the atmosphere, everything.
Maya said “How beautiful is this world of illusion you created. Now I want you to create a kind of animal that is so intelligent and aware that it can appreciate your creation.” Finally Brahma created humans and after that he finished the creation, he asked Maya when the game was going to start.
“We will start right now” she said. She took Brahma and cut him into thousands of teeny, tiny pieces. She put a piece inside every human and said, “Now the game begins!! I am going to make you forget what you are and you are going to try and find yourself!” Maya created the dream, and still, even today, Brahma is trying to remember who he is. Brahma is there inside you and Maya is stopping you from remembering what you are.”
It’s difficult to hid the truth, and I am convinced that the Holy Spirit will always use any available form or symbol in this world to show me the truth . I need be be open to learning.
God Bless
