The issue of Karma is an important aspect of both religions
The Judeo-Christian Religion never developed a word for it , but the concept
is one of it's Pillars . The Hindu-Buddhist religion has labeled the concept
as Karma ”I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6
The word -me- used in this context could more closely translate to a plural meaning as well, but that is not certain. Basically a more correct Translation-- in My understanding would read ........... We are the way, nobody here {Here Now, present as I Speak } shall come to the father except through me. {or possibly ..through us} In either case he is not Saying that He is the Only way. --" ..whoever is not against you is for you.. "

As per Hindu/Buddhist
scriptures "When the moon, the sun and Brhaspati {Jupiter} are together
in the constellation Karkata,{Cancer, the Crab} and all three enter
simulatenously into the lunar mansion Pusya--at that exact moment the
age of Satya, or Krta, will begin." (translation from BBT Srimad
Bhagavatam 1987)
We are presently in THE AGE OF KALI as per Buddhist/Hindu belief. Kali -the black one-is the Hindu mother goddess. She destroys ignorance, maintains the world order, and blesses and frees those who strive for the knowledge of God. Her association with War is largely symbolic of the War for Salvation or The War against Evil, and depictions of her are horrendously frightening at times if you do not bother to understand their symbolic-gnostic meanings. "Is Kali, my Divine Mother, of
a black complexion? We are presently in THE AGE OF MARY as per Many Christians. There is a mystique surrounding "The Black Madonna" in relationship to Mary, the fact is that Mary was not a Caucasian, there is what is believed to be a fairly accurate painting of her which can be traced directly to Saint Luke the purported Author of the Gospel of Luke, that Mary herself sat for , at one point in time it was altered , possibly Europeanizing some of the features - but that can not be proved. There is also a cult of The Black Madonna which arose out of France, and is not directly related to Mary, and is not relevant to the current topic.
