From four decades now of studying gnostic, esoteric, mystical, and psychedelic literatures, which are some of the most sophisticated religious materials on the planet, I have become convinced that what people call God is a plurality or multibeing. Put more simply, we are all, together, collectively, God.5 If you prefer a bit of humor, we can invoke the Dutch computer engineer become idealist philosopher Bernardo Kastrup and suggest that God has a massive multiple personality (dis)order, and we are its symptomatic expressions. We are God’s alters.
