@lizzie doesnt christianity have a concept similar to buddha-nature. is it the logos?
@georgia yeah buddha-nature lands pretty close to a lot of christian conceptions of the logos. its often not emphasized (especially in the west) 🥀

@ikeWren @lizzie I wish there were a proper hindu sect that saw jesus as a descent of the Supreme Lord. usually syncretists just consider him a perfected/accomplished/enlightened being. new agers call him an "ascended master".
but my personal experience of God is that jesus and krishna are both full avataras. I see the bhagavad gita in the mahabharata with an equal eye to the sermon on the mount in the gospels.
