[Shri Anil asked: When creation is withdrawn, the love from other souls to God disappear, in such a case, will the soul of Datta and Parabrahman involve in dualistic love for each other, otherwise, only monistic love alone would remain which will lead to boredom again in the absence of creation?]
Swami replied:- When the creation is withdrawn into God Datta, the entire creation along with all souls exists in subtle state (Avyaktam). The cinema show is only withdrawn and the cinema remains in the film in subtle state so that it can be projected again and again (Dhātā yathā pūrva makalpayat - Veda). There is no question of withdrawal of creation and hence, creation remains eternal. It has only beginning, but, has no end. End means only going into subtle state from gross state in the sense of creation. Even though God Datta also has a beginning and has no end like the creation, the difference is that creation is continuously transferred between the gross and subtle states whereas God Datta remains as He is forever.
