“It is important to realize that as theism and theological thought developed in India, each “individual” god was seen as complex. Each was seen as the thousand-headed One, Purusha, who includes the others. Each expresses the full range of God’s multiplicity. Further, each is not seen as penultimate, limited to the one quarter of Reality that we know; each is seen to stretch the theological imagination beyond the world-unworld”
