Everything that one experienced and exist in this world is "Maya" (Virtual).
Even an identity is Maya.
Identity is a 'karmic construct' and one day shall be obliterated.
You are Maya, I am Maya, Blavatski is Maya, Steiner is Maya, Ra is Maya, Tree is Maya, Cat is Maya.
Yes, the Hindu concept of Maya is of all manifested reality as I understand it. What made me surprised was that Steiner made a distinction between ordinary people and people appearing as what he called Maya. Or I could have misinterpreted what he said. I found this quote:
Quote:"The Oriental thinks everything in the sense-perceptible world is 'maya'; everything perceived by our senses and all thinking connected with sense perceptions is 'maya,' the great illusion. The only reality is the reality of the soul. What a human being achieves in his or her soul is reality." - Rudolf Steiner
