I never claimed Buddhism made sense. Just said what at least I'd heard it's central core concept was, and I think an eternity "free from desire" sounds like nothing I'd want. But it seemed parallel to this common idea among Christians that God wants me to just fall on my face in adoration at His throne for eternity, a singular, static existence, and the only way that could fulfill me is if all other desires were removed.So, according to the Nirvanism heresy, we shall not desire the Presence of the Lord, we shall not desire the intimacy of raising voices together in His praise.
I now know that is a false parallel, and a false view of God's will and God's plan.
I don't want that because HE doesn't want that.
We will be worshiping and glorifying God for all eternity that much is true
But we will be doing that in many ways through many activities, not just one. That was the false premise, that He would want us to do only one thing, in one location.
God will be everywhere in the new creation, He doesn't need you to all be in one location before the throne. He will be with you no matter where you are physically in the new creation.
