    Yes, "maya" is another term to convey my meaning here. Google:

    "Maya, (Sanskrit: “magic” or “illusion”) a fundamental concept in Hindu philosophy, notably in the Advaita (Nondualist) school of Vedanta. ... By extension, it later came to mean the powerful force that creates the cosmic illusion that the phenomenal world is real."

    But i don't use eastern terms because, unlike the apostate Paul, i am not trying to gain authority by any kind of association, except that my assertions are consistent, logical and reasonable.

    Note well, i advocate advaita vedanta, thus, non-dualism.

    Note well, not all "hindu" narratives are cleanly and clearly non-dualistic.

    A narrative could start out authentically non-dualistic, like Jesus' own messages, but could be co-opted by egos, which twist and turn the message to serve the dualistic agenda of the prime ego.

    If maya were real, then yes, there would exist dual conditions in Christ.

    But Christ is non-dual, meaning, for example, Christ is joy, only joy, without any shades of gray sadness.

    Christ is thus more the Tao, rather than the Ying and Yang.

    In advaita vedanta, you would use the term Brahman, in place of Christ.

    But there is no name for the Being which is Real.
