I think I understand what you mean, Heartfully. I come from a Catholic background, where thinking of God as female is a heresy. I realize that all images of God are illusions. Yet my finite human mind, buried in ignorance, craves an image of God to meditate upon. The Heavenly Mother: Indian, beautiful, astride her Tiger makes me feel protected and loved. I love Her dearly. Yet I realize that it is illusory. But for me, for the moment, it is an aid in meditation. I am very happy for you!
