The Plan of Creation

 

1

The Old Man worked hard for six days.

He looked at his work and saw that it was good.

He stroked his long white beard and rested on the seventh day.

 

2

As beautiful as this image of the birth of creation may seem,

there is something fundamentally wrong with this tale.

 

3

The Creator, the source of all light and all vibrations,

did not have a beard nor was he a man and he was certainly not old.

Are you shocked or perhaps even relieved, dear reader?

This chapter parts with many mainstream beliefs

regarding the Creator and creation.

 

6

But it does not shatter all the myths we have become fond of;

on the contrary…

 

7

…it reveals some of them in much greater and enlightening clarity

without reducing their vitality.

 

 

 

The Creator conceived the Plan of Creation

 

Let us start at the very beginning, because it is here that the first

misunderstandings occur. Whether we are aware of it or not,

whether we can grasp it or not, the Creator always was and always will be.

Its eternal nature and love make it alpha and omega, the beginning and

the end. This is the divine spark in everything that lives, the Divine Source,

the source of all that is and the space that contains all that is and always

will be. The Creator is all in one and one in all. The full understanding of

the Creator will probably always remain beyond all human comprehension.

 

To avoid the fundamental discussion of whether there is a god at all, 

what god is or where such a god comes from, we shall continue to approach

the subject as described above. Accordingly, God-the-Father is not the

stringent, bloodthirsty God of the Old Testament who frightens and

punishes, but the loving father as described by Jesus. He is the original

source of all life and the perpetual source of all living beings. 

 

To achieve a common basis for discussion, we must recognize the basis

of all monotheistic world religions, which is that there is, always has

been and always will be a divine Creator.

 

 

The DEI Aspects

 

The masculine (alpha, origin) and the feminine (omega, source) aspects of

divinity stand for the God-as-Father and the God-as-Mother, so to speak.

They are the light and love and therefore the source of all divine life,

being and doing. 

 

At first glance this may seem to be an oversimplified explanation and

difficult to understand. And yet it gives a more realistic impression of

the Creator than does the purely masculine God to which we have

become accustomed. It is enhanced by the fact that it includes the beauty

of the feminine aspect, which is always equally present and without which

creation would be unimaginable. We shall attempt to describe the

DEI aspects in detail to provide a better understanding of what they are,

and what they do for us and all that is.
