The Holy Trinity:

The Holy Trinity:
In the Christian lexicon, the Holy Trinity is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a being according to what Jesus said because he (a male) is someone the Father will give you as another counselor and he will come and he will speak.
According to the Buddha, we are all part of an infinitude of beings (capable of finally being Buddhas, though it may take eons) existing in a Brahma palace (tenfold world system) that comprises the earth, the cosmos, the heavens and the hells that is created by and presided over by The Great Brahma who is the Conqueror, the Unconquered, the All-Seeing, All-Powerful, the Sovereign Lord, the Maker, Creator, Chief, Appointer and Ruler, Father of All That Have Been and Shall Be and who according to the Buddha, has two sons. This may correspond to the Holy Trinity because Jesus said the Holy Spirit comes from the Father (just as Jesus comes from the Father).
Is it a mere coincidence that the Buddha calls Great Brahma the Father and he has two sons?

Jesus: And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him (The Father is the appointer) who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's will. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. (everything is significant) Fear not, therefore; you (To be born a man is a very rare privilege according to the Buddha) are of more value than many sparrows. So every one who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven; but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.
If what the Holy Spirit speaks is identical to what Jesus spoke then to say that those who spoke against the Son of Man will be forgiven but those who spoke against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven would not be based on truth but based on partiality, discrimination or idiosyncrasy. If what Jesus and the Holy Spirit spoke are identical, what is the rationale for forgiving blasphemy against Jesus and not the Spirit?
IF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE OTHER COUNSELOR THAT JESUS SAID THE FATHER WILL GIVE YOU, WHO WILL COME TO YOUR ADVANTAGE, WHO WILL GLORIFY JESUS BY TAKING FROM IS HIS AND MAKING IT KNOWN TO YOU & WILL CONVINCE THE WORLD REGARDING SIN, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUDGMENT (JESUS SAID MEN DO NOT BELIEVE HIM, IF YOU HAVE BELIEVED HIM, WHY ARE YOU STILL LAUGHING AND NOT LETTING YOUR YES BE YES ONLY?), THEN IT IS RATIONAL THAT WHOEVER SAID A WORD AGAINST THE SON OF MAN WILL BE FORGIVEN, WHOEVER SAID A WORD AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NOT BE.
WHY DID JESUS NOT SPEAK OF THOSE WHO SPOKE AGAINST THE FATHER? PERHAPS UNLIKE JESUS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, THE FATHER NEVER CAME, NEVER SPOKE TO MEN AND AS JESUS SAID, MEN DO NOT KNOW HIS FATHER AND THEREFORE DO NOT KNOW WHO THEY ARE SPEAKING AGAINST.
