Borobudur: World Holy Site
Q&A
(There are many religions, but only One Mother)

Goddesses of Borobudur

BACK TO THE ORIGIN

Q: Buddha's as "Son/Lovers" of the Mother. Isn't this male dominance, once again?
Dewi Kartini, Jogja

A: Not at all. Remember. Contrary to Shakyamuni the New Buddha's aren't the "last authority" anymore. They are Her executives, teaching "in the Name of the Mother". Maitreya is the main example of this.

Moreover: Her "function" is destruction of (male!) ego (including those female ego's who nowadays have identified with the patriarchal system...)

Furthermore, She is manifesting Herself in numerous Goddesses, all positively emphasizing all levels of Existence

The Buddha's of Borobudur are Her seekers, helpers and guards.Her Womb (Great Stupa) is the center, while the Buddha's are grouped around Her

All this is leading to a "feminine" (holistic) world view, including unity in diversity, interconnectedness, love, respect, justice, mutuality and community!

At Borobudur the Buddha's are NOT the center of worship

 

THIS PAGE IS DESIGNED ESPECIALLY FOR YOU. PLEASE ASK YOUR QUESTION AND I WILL TRY TO ANSWER IT

To the contrary, those of levels three, four and five are the guardians to the Mother

Q: Everything you say sounds so INCREDIBLY LOGIC. To which school of Buddhism do you belong?
Mark Short, USA

A: It is not my wisdom, but the insights granted to me by the Cosmic Mother through Her Revelation in 1977*. By the way, She wants you to be a Buddha, not a Buddhist

* See: "Threefold Realization"

All looking outward! This to share their Enlightened State with the world

Q: There are people who emphasize the "God within" (spirituality) and those who believe in a "God without" (religion). How can they be reconciled?
Jessica, Los Angeles

A: God is Omni-Present. His (Its) Eternal Light is penetrating everything and all, without exception. So, going within you will find Him (It), and going without you'll find Him (It). Spirituality and religion are two sides of the same coin.

Big Brother is watching you (joke)

Q: Monotheists say: there is only One God. Polytheists say: there are many Gods. Atheists say there is nothing. This was already pretty confusing. Now you are adding a "Mother" to it. My question: what is the relationship between these players?
Bruno Bär, Germany

A: The Mother is simplyfying everything! She is the Vacuum ("Womb") giving birth to the Eternal Light (the One God). The latter is Her first emanation. Since they exist on different levels, there is no competition between the two. She is beyond God ( Absolute Emptiness) while "He" represents Full-Emptiness. Mother's second emanation are the intermediairy heavenly beings, forms, ideas (Plato) or energies, also called "Gods" and "Goddesses". Since they exist on a "lower" level, they don't compete with the One God, either. Finally, Her third emanation is the material world. All levels peacefully co-existing e.g. interacting with each other. The Cosmos can therefore be seen as an integrated "Whole", where everything is complementary without "biting each other".
