is based on an (egoic) perception of separation (from that Source or End) which leads to the (false) notion of a
Creator-God? And everything else that notion implies, including "beginnings" and "endings"?

Namaste!

Either we believe there's a singular, divine and unified ONE (1) Source/End or we don't.

If believing in ONE (1) Source/End creates spiritual division or separation with that ONE (1) Source/End perhaps the question could be asked: is this the true Source/End? Or what really could be happening is that we are really holding steadfast in our egoic belief that there are many Source/Ends.

Logically, it would seem that anything that creates - or can be attributed to - a sense or a feeling of of division, pain or separation must not be true.

For the ONE (1) Source/End - namely God - is truth. How can we continue to believe in something that creates division, fear, pain and separation within us?

Perhaps it's is the natural insanity of ego that's the problem. Hence all the false notions of these "creator gods."

But, despite our egoically insane claims, there still has to be ONE (1) Source/End.

Nice dialogue! Thanks for sharing!!

Peace and God Bless!
