Such a philosophy suggests that nobody knows the truth. Hence truth is relative and there is no good or bad.Actually, I always considered him a bit of an egomaniac. Buddha had much less attitude.
"Don't get attached to what I say, don't get attached to any doctrine, to what I preach; don't get attached to my personality. These are all just fingers pointing to the moon. Forget me, don't start worshiping me; just look at the moon. And once you have looked at the moon, I don't matter at all." -- Buddha
Krishna, on the other hand, made no bones about who he was/Is.
"When goodness grows weak,
When evil increases,
I make myself a body.
In every age I come back
To deliver the holy,
To destroy the sin of the sinner,
To establish righteousness."
Krishna, Bhagavad Gita
Looks like Krishna, Buddha, and Jesus could all be the same guy! I do realize that's impossible for you to fathom...
The idea that Krishna, Buddha and Jesus are one is a new age philosophy. This is the same belief that Alice Bailey came with. She speaks about how the so called universal Christ will return in the form of Maitreya which is likely the anti-Christ himself. All the above is new age nonsense. Any Muslim or Christian who know their stuff can sniff new agey ideas from a mile away.
If someone claims that God exists yet did not give us any purpose are attributing foolishness to God.
Imagine an employer interviewed 300 potential workers and gave 20 of them the job then on the first day he didn't tell any of them what to do. What would you say about such an employer? You would say he is an idiot for employing people and not telling them what their job is. What will the workers do? They will just sit in the lunch room all day drinking coffee and watching TV.
To say that nobody knows the truth is to say that God created human beings on earth and didn't tell them what do do. In other words God left us to wander blindly and decide ourselves what is good and bad.
