I used to enjoy hearing a Muslim perspective, Jewish, Atheist but now it seems that its all personalised versions - build your own interpretation.

Its pointless when its all "subjective".

I can claim anything & " nobody has the right to object " - its spiritual fan fiction.
I noticed your edit after my previous reply, so I shall elaborate.

In regards to Brahman (the Absolute) everything is so-called "Spiritual Fan Fiction" and we even have a term for it...it's called Maya - illusion.

We can see it as being such...acknowledge it as being such, but the trick is to rise above it through awareness of it and not allow oneself to be caught up in the little 'mind games' she plays.
