The Lord and the world, even when they seem to be distinct, are not really different from each other; they are one Brahman. (Sri Aurobindo)
Creation is not a making of something out of nothing or of one thing out of another, but a self-projection of Brahman into the conditions of Space and Time. (Sri Aurobindo)
