90 SOME ASPECTS OF THE GOD-HEAD.<br />

&quot;Him the God of Gods not perceived by the king of Gods<br />

(Indra) 1 Him the supreme king of the other Triad, who create,<br />

sustain and destroy the worlds; The first Murti, (the manifest<br />

God) 2 the Great Ancestor, my<br />

Divine Maid.<br />

Consider the following passages also.<br />

&quot;Him, The more ancient than the Triad, The End (of all<br />

things), and yet one who lasts behind all things, the One with<br />

the braided hair 8 the King of our loved city Perundurai, The<br />

Heavenly God, and the Consort of Uma.&quot;<br />

In the following passage, He is identified with the Triad,<br />

in the same way as He is often identified with all the works of<br />

His creation, Earth, Air, Water &c, though those very<br />

passages say at the same time that He is not to be identified<br />

with the creature and created things, a doctrine which clearly<br />

cannot be mistaken for Pantheism. As a Christian writer<br />

points out, the Doctrine of Immanency of God in all nature is<br />

quite consistent with our idea of the Transcendency of God.<br />

He became the Triple Form (of the Triad), and yet<br />

remained the one who could not be perceived by the<br />

mind.&quot;<br />
