[A question by Ms. Laxmi Thrylokya]
Swami replied:- Actually, God is real and world is unreal. But, the unreal world is gifted by God with the absolute reality of God so that God wanted to enjoy this world with full entertainment. Anything equally real alone can give full and real entertainment. The soul is entertaining with this world because both soul and the world are equally benefited with the absolute reality of God. In dream, the same soul is in energetic body and the dream is also energetic world and hence, the soul can enjoy the dream fully due to equal reality. Hence, there is no difference between God and world as far as the reality is concerned because both are absolutely real. But, fundamentally the difference between God and world is that God is inherently absolute reality whereas world is inherently absolute unreality and world became absolutely real due to the gifted absolute reality of God by God Himself for the sake of really and full entertainment of the world.
