Genesis 1: 6-7; God as the Imaginer and the imaginings becoming imaginers
The Oriental looks through his eyes and sees people. "That is what we look like." The African, the European and the Indian all the same--they see people; "That's what we look like."
Then they see each other, and, "That doesn't seem right."
Yet inside each one is the same Imaginer. The "spirit" or imagining looking out through the Oriental's eyes is the same Imaginer looking out through the African's, the Europeans' and the Indian's eyes, each imagining that the others are separate and different and perhaps even "wrong."
Each imagining is the action of the same one Imaginer. The Imaginer wants each individual imagining to become an individual imaginer, just like "him."
I am sure it will be advantageous for each imagining to remember and constantly bear in mind as an imaginer that it is just an imagining of the Imaginer--all are one, and that one is the Imaginer. None is separate or divided from the rest, even though they do look strange.
In Neville Goddard's vision of an enormous field of enormous sunflowers, each with a human face and each following the will of God in concert with all the others, it was apparent to me that from God the Imaginer of all (the sun the sunflowers followed) there is a step down to his individual imaginings--each fixed in his will but some nuance different from his other imaginings, and these were to learn to be free yet perfectly like him--independent imaginers or, if you would for the vision's sake, redeemed rats.
If God the Imaginer's agitating action is "waters" and the imaginers on earth's agitating actions are "waters," the expanse of imaginings between them would be like the sky, the firmament which divides the "waters above from the waters below" in Genesis 1: 6 and 7.
It should strike one, I think, that the division between them is at once real yet artificial. There is real division in function, yet all are the imaginings and the "contrivements"/distinctions of the divine, Most Holy Imaginer, who alone is the reality.
