I do find the term ‘God’ slightly awkward at this stage. I hope that this is not for social reasons, but for its lack of specificity. (‘God’ may still be a useful, non-specific term). ‘(The) Spirit’, ‘(The) Creator, and ‘(The) Christ’ would describe precisely the three levels of manifestation which I recognise, the Spirit being both the Original and the Centre.

(As before:)* Viewed across the (vertical) plane of the Circles.

The diagrams do not contradict each other: they are two ways of looking at the same thing.
