An Interpretation of The Ten States of God as explained in God Speaks, by Meher Baba.

1) God in the Beyond Beyond State:

God’s Essence- the infinite Divine Vacuum, about which nothing can be said that is not at once refuted.

2) God in the Beyond State:

God could not help himself in his infinitely tranquil slumber and suddenly had the Whim to ask the question, “Who am I?” This at once resulted in the simultaneous emergence of infinite unconsciousness as the Nothing and infinite consciousness as the Everything.

3) God as Ishwar:

God as Creator, Preserver and Destroyer arises as a consequence of the Nothing yearning, on the basis of the Original Whim, to know itself as the Everything.

4) God as embodied Soul:

The creation process begins as the Soul becomes embodied.

5) God as Soul in the State of Evolution:

The evolution of consciousness gives rise to the evolution of form, i.e. gas, metal, stone, vegetable, worm, fish, bird and animal.

6) God as Human Soul in the process of Reincarnation:

Consciousness evolves the human form as the perfect form (vehicle) to transmute consciousness through the process of reincarnation.

7) God as a Spiritually Advanced Soul:

After millions of lives in the human form, consciousness becomes spiritually advanced, i.e. consciousness becomes transmuted from gross to subtle to mental consciousness.

8) God as the Divinely Absorbed:

God- as the Nothing, “drowns” in God, as the Everything, and realizes himself as infinite Power, Knowledge and Bliss.

9) God as Liberated Incarnate:

The state of God when fully conscious of infinite Power, Knowledge and Bliss and also conscious of the three bodies and spheres (Creation), but not having the authority to function as God in Creation.

10) God as Man-God and God-Man

God in the role as Perfect Master and Avatar, i.e. fully conscious of infinite Power, Knowledge and Bliss and also conscious of the three bodies and spheres (Creation) AND having the authority to function as God in Creation.
