The Relationship Between God and the Self

The self is certainly the foundation of the changing person, personality, thought, action, etc. One has to look for some way of trying to account for a continuity that will underlie change and a coherence that willUnderlie plurality. The Buddhists who are constantly reminding people that change appears to destroy identity are the people that they're having to answer both about the self and about the divine. They want to go far enough to explain plurality, but not so far that it becomes just plurality. And I'm not sure they've come up with any coherent concept, an extensionless duration,. which has no intrinsic existence.
