It occurs to me, that in the course of their daily affairs, most people feel their existence remains in a state of "disconnection" from their God. Whether repressed into a state of ignoring it, or even in conscious decisions, people tend to view their lives as separately independent from their origins. We do this by giving ourselves a "self identity". In reality, this self identity emerges as an aspect of the "enshrouding" nature which an ego renders out for us. Between every self and every soul, there exists an ego, with which, we consciously manifest our personal sense of being as something separate and opposed to "all other". This delineation works so well, that God Himself is forced aside in our organizational ability to group all "which is other" from the illusions that an ego projects upon the "collective" reality.
Yet we remain inescapably within the multiplicity of phenomena, blissfully unaware that all of it results from God, which, depending on the ontological perspective can be with physical origins such as in the generation of matter (Big Bang), or with metaphysical origins such as in the Will of an "Intelligent Designer". Whatever the perspective one chooses, inevitably, the "Cause" must also be within the "Body" because there can be nothing beyond nor outside of it; there are only raw ingredients combined in fashionable ways constituting everything in and of this Reality. In this manner of reference, the "Body" can either be the assemblage of one or more deities (implying intelligence), or the assemblage of one or more physical universes - for even the scenario of a macroverse must entail some form of organizational laws in nature (again implying intelligence) which may prohibit or confound the minimalistic mortal awareness of its overall unity. With regard to even "one" universe (if this is the reader's belief), we cannot escape from being within this "organism" itself. Everyone who defines themself as being composed of a physical body, will be found to be the result of prehistoric nuclear activity having an origin which is traceable back to "simpler" forms of star stuff. In other words, they have been caused to exist because their organism has resulted from the events a "larger" organism has made possible.
I choose to perceive this larger organism as being God, yet this form of "potentiality in action" can be as confusing as determining what object came first; "did God create us, or did we create God?" - which in similar style can be asked, "did reality create us, or did we create reality"? Think about it this way; your conception of reality rests solely in the workings of mind - your consciousness. Should your consciousness disappear, so too, does your reality. In fact, you would disappear from other people's reality just as thoroughly, if not for their ability to be conscious too. Reality and "us" are somehow intrinsically captivated by each other. The same can be said about God and our relationship to Him.
My answer to the question should be obvious. That is, we have created each other, though the reader may not comprehend how this "dimensional" placement - or rather, "displacement - can occur in a simultaneous fashion. In my book, "Origins of The First Entities," I have constantly attempted to portray the events of reality as if from the perspective of the larger organism (larger than mortal, but lesser than the Divine Absolute). Yet in the effort - and entirely at the mercy of using symbology (in the forms of concept and their literation) - this reality must be subdivided into representations of a subjective Will and its objective conclusions. It is in this division - this dualistic symptom of reality - that unity with all of its "oneness" can get intellectually suppressed. As Ramana Maharshi once said, "Illiteracy is ignorance and education is learned ignorance. Both are ignorant of the true Aim which is the non-dual way of knowing." I suggest to imply that we are entirely capable of non-dualistically knowing God, the result of which must assuredly redefine our relationship to all things in our nature and our lives.
A distinction must be made whenever the term, "Absolute Subjectivity" arises in my writings. Consciousness is Absolute Subjectivity. It belongs exclusively to neither subject nor object but encompasses both. Absolute Subjectivity must be understood as not being the ego subject, as in the dualism found in subject vs. object. Theosophical writings point out that Subject is used only because it hints that Reality lies in what appears to be the direction that we call inward, subjective, towards the very center of "being" within. It is a center so deep and profound that it is God's center as well. This is why we should take the word "God" to mean "depth", and also why Christ proclaimed that the Kingdom of Heaven is to be found, "within".
This blog stands as an invitation to ponder for awhile. How can God, as much as you, exist as both the cause and the body of Reality. The tangled hierarchy of this relationship should change the way we associate with all else.
