Mahasi Sayadaw,one of the founding fathers of the Insight Meditation movement and teacher of Jack Kornfield says the following in”The Manual of Insight” his most famous work.   Quoting the khuddaka Nikaya”O Great King,nibbana(nirvana) is incomparable.It cannot be described in its color,shape,size,dimension,likeness, remote cause,immediate cause,or any other logical way of thinking”.He goes on to say”nibbana has no colour ,form or size.It cannot be described by using a simile” This sounds exactly like the Islamic description of Allah.The last bit is almost word for word what the Quran says about God”He is beyond comparison.La mithla shay.There is no simile for Him”

So where is the problem?The Dalai Lama is insistent that there is no Creator God.Why does he say that?! Because there is a very serious theological error inherent in Buddhism.It does not recognize the link between the conditioned and the unconditioned,between the Creator and the created.It sees them as parallel tracks.That’s why I am a Muslim rather than a Buddhist.Salaams,Ibrahim
