Re: The big bang theory

God was not created. God is not a "thing" or a "person" or an identity or a form. God is the ultimate non-thing. God "always is". Not "always was", nor "always will be", but "always is". "It" (god) is here right now, and always will be here right now. Not in the future, not in the past, but now. Time is an illusory filter that is also subordinate to "the dream". The manifestation of "time" as we perceive it, exists only because the "dream" has a beginning and an end. But outside of the dream, there is no time. Time itself is a part of creation. As long as you remain "stuck in the dream", you will also be a slave to Time.

Beyond the bounds of creation lies the non-created "creator" (a better word is "source"). The creator (source) is timeless, formless, eternally "here and now". "Beginning" and "end" themselves are merely concepts that spring forth from the source, just like all other thought and creation.

To know all of these things, you have to step outside of the intellect, outside of the bounds of time, outside of yourself (the ego-identity). Those are all subordinate to "creation", or "the dream". But a part of you, really the ONLY thing that can be considered "you", is beyond the dream. A dream must have a dreamer. An experience must have an experiencer. A perception must have a perceiver. In the same way, "creation" has a "creator". Only words differ. The ultimate knowing comes from realizing that two halves equal one.

Time is both a hostage-taker and a guardian. It holds you hostage, and at the same time guards the door to the creator. Pick up your Sword of Awareness and strike at the throat of Time. Then you will be free, and the door will be open...
