Please read also my answer to your other post. To be honest with you:
I don't care if the Absolute is illusory or not. I see the thing just
from my own side. I am too much overwhelmed by my own not being in
charge, than to think exactly about Who is in charge. BTW. The
recognition of the illusioriness of my own personality extends to the
illusioriness of ANY personality, that is our idea of personality and
ownership is simply wrong per se.

> That is, does the Absolute really exist?

That's a philosophic question. Its like saying: Does existence exist?
At this point for me that is a mute discussion.

Doesn't seem to be. You clearly understood me wrongly. To me that
seems to be a cope out. My point is: we are not personalities,
personalities don't run shows. To now say: There is nobody else runnig
the show (as the Absolute doesn't exist), therefore it must be me
running it, is in my eyes an escape.

You misunderstood that. I don't imagine the Absolute to be endowed
with individuality. And if it is so, then it would be very different
then what we understand by it. Any Ego, be it of God or man is an
illusion.

Shall I be honest? Mindfuck.
