In looking back over descriptions by individuals who have come into contact with actual living divine consciousness from whatever culture, I am coming to the conclusion that while there is only one universal force or presence or Cause in the universe, there are dozens of disparate pictures of it. When one cannot reach to genuine, he will settle for and embrace on of those pictures. The difference between the real deal and the many pictures is that the pictures can conflict with each other, causing great anxiety and mayhem in the minds of men, something the real deal does not do when contacted directly.
