My notion of creation and creator had changed. Creator is manifested by what I experience in the universe. Creation is ongoing – the universe continues to be created and my soul is newly created daily/hourly.
Through the years I’d acquired ideas and behaviors that stunted my growth. Thanks to the troubles I caused for myself, I’ve been driven to transform. I’ve learned to pursue growth. I’m shedding the dead weight mistaken ideas that hardened my false self and drove me to anger and fear.
My False Self is now more transparent. More of my soul shows through and manifests a loving heart.
I create my own experience. How I respond to conditions, events and people is up to me. I’m not always able to pause and find the best response. For this reason I work at manifesting love. Sitting in the presence of God (love) I’m more likely to respond in a loving, helpful and creative way.

Beautiful insights, Roy. Nothing in creation, including what I think of as “my self,” is ever completed, and clinging to the impermanence and ever-changing nature of “maya” and trying to assign permanence to it is the source of so much suffering and misery. But Love is the very essence of the cosmos, and when I focus myself there, I find what is truly unchanging.
