Our view of the spiritual realms
"What quantum calculations show is that we and our universe live and breathe in what amounts to a sea of motion,
a quantum sea of light" The Field by Lynne McTaggart
The Creator is within and without all form, as the Cosmic Ocean of Being. The Creator is infinite and intimate in its relationship to life.
