And you will see that we are living in a world of imagination, that the human imagination is God. If He dwells within me, I’ve got to find out where He is. When I find that He is the only creative power in the world, I find that to be my imagination. I will not always be in control of my imagination. In the course of a day I am ashamed, possibly, of unnumbered things that I have imagined, but as I am told in Scripture: “I am the Lord, and there is no other god beside me; I kill and I make alive, I wound and I heal.” (Deuteronomy 32:39) I create the evil and I have formed the good, the weal and the woe, for there is no other creative power in the world! I cannot turn to an evil being and call it God and “turn to a good thing and call that another God. It is the same creative power. The light that illuminates the room, it could electrocute me if I misuse it, and yet it serves to illuminate the room. I can put it to a thousand purposes, or I could misuse it. That is the same thing that we do with our imagination. The human imagination is God.
The human imagination is God, the sole creative power in the world. This power is neutral, like electricity, and can be used for both 'good' (weal) and 'evil' (woe). There is no other creative force, meaning all experiences originate from one's own imagination, whether consciously directed or not.
