The simplest questions are often the deepest.
Quote:-Infinite Creator - This is a little easier to comprehend. Does this mean the Creator creates for an infinite amount of things?
That which is Infinite cannot be many. This is a popular New Age misconception (tied to the whole "galactic family of little special starseeds" sub-meme). "We are One", though underlyingly correct, is also a fallacy in the sense that only One can truly
be One, not two or three or four-gazillion-five-wazillion-and-sixty-seven (as "we" obviously implies). The moment you count two ("we") things, the moment you are no longer dealing with Infinity, but an illusion thereof.
The Creator does indeed create infinitely due to its infinite nature (having no bounds, boundaries, edges, limits, delineation or measurability of any kind). However, Creation
itself is not infinite (as its end was spelled the very moment it was begun). The moment "manyness" (measurable, separate, quantifiable "things") ensues, the moment Infinity ceases to be infinite (only apparently, however, not
really).
Thus, Creation is, by its very nature, illusory (bound to limits, measurements, plurality of
things). Whereas Infinity, the
uncreated Creator, is
no-thing: uncountable, unmeasurable and purely abstract. If you can count it or measure it or
define it in your mind, it ain't infinite.
The creative
process, however (not just one Creation "after" another in numerical sequence, but simultaneously and "multi-dimensionally" without number), is indeed infinite and ongoing without space or time.
Quote:-Infinite Energy - The Creator's energy has no end?
Energy is a Greek word borrowed by the Romans (Latin) and subsequently spread across the entirety of Europa/America alongside the rest of the Latin repertoire. In any case: energy (energon) literally refers to "that which is at
work or operational". As such, it refers to the Creator in its active (creative) phase as opposed to resting (potential).
Quote:-intelligent infinity -
Intelligence (Latin for "choose, pick or read between") is referential to Infinity's inherent faculty of Will (which, by virtue of Infinity, can only be infinitely "free"). That is, Infinity's own capability to choose (
limit Itself) to focus or concentrate upon one particular direction or avenue of exploration, or Creation, of Itself (as opposed to another altogether different one—which It
does do, but that is yet
another,
distinct, and altogether "other" exploration into limitation), in so doing becoming potentiated or energized into activity/creativity and thereby ceasing to be "resting" in pure potentiality (although paradoxically it never ceased/ceases being "at rest"—
but that's a slightly more "mysterious" topic for another time)
This "focusing", of course, is what people generally (mis)understand as Thought/Love, whose resultant "product" or
manifestation is that self-
reflective (mirror-like) principle known as Light (which is, quite literally, what Infinity
sees Itself
as once it has chosen to focus—not unlike opening an eye from slumber and immediately
seeing the Light of wakefulness; such is the power of attention, Thought, focus or "Love").
From this Light, the Creation of many, various, separate, independent little "things" is subsequently and procedurally generated in mathematical/geometrical order (which "things" then seek, in true inevitable and evolutionary fashion, to know their "Source").
Thus the Creator, Infinity, may experience what it otherwise could not: the
realization of Its own infinitude.
