When I think of the Supreme Being as inactive neither creating nor preserving nor destroying-I call Him Brahman or Purusha, the Impersonal God. When I think of Him as active-creating, preserving, destroying-I call Him Shakti or Maya or Prakriti, the Personal God. But the distinction between them does not mean a difference. - Al Ghazali
