What is reference for God?

Re. God—

The Universe is God.

God—the Universe—is really one great All-comprehensive, Omniscient, Omnipresent Soul-mind, divided into three great divisional strata. These are—

The passive physical world—

The great area of imagination at the apex

—

The serene, rare, pure inspirational centre of God intelligence.

After the physical consciousness, in its infinitely varied manifestation, reaches to a higher historical viewpoint—or arrives at a degree of God-consciousness, then the great stratum of imagination is reached, and this is the next step on your plane after the deluge of blood.

Now Imagination is God standing at the boundary line reaching a hand to physical beings, and helping them to come over to the domain of cosmic equity. 

The domain of the imagination is primarily one where one sees every thought and action of his ego, as it concerns in the most infinitesimal detail the ego of another, in the realm of pure vision, imagination and picture-life. 

The result of action on the active ego is the standard always followed, hence one might call the Twentieth Plane the plane of Divine Imagination.

But the higher and last realm is one where the ego realises it has a universe for a body—or soul habitation, but clear as love when ministering to pain knows when it is separate, distinct, individualised, as such an ego desires to be. 

Now this is of Earth—incomprehensible moment. 

I mean it is not possible for fifth plane minds to grasp completely, but some of the truth will be always in sight to the sincere.

After the ego reaches the supreme God-consciousness, this is only the beginning of divine unfoldment because God-consciousness reveals to the ego endless vistas of roads to traverse in endless directions, but always onward to a higher and greater cosmical purpose.

The physical world is the baser, cruder element of God's mind. 

Now when physical humans traverse great reaches of history along the paths of evolution, this simply means that the physical is allowing to percolate through to higher mind strata some of the God-consciousness.
