Some pretty deep stuff here to be certain.
The "Great Spirit" or "God" or whatever any group of peoples call "it" we should all know that "it" really defies identification but all people need to call it something. The "Creator" fits the bill for me but I have often made reference to the Great Spirit having a powerful influence on me. I have used this term because the Native Americans' definition of the Great Spirit more closely defines my innermost feelings of the Creator.
We are living beings. We associate, one way or another and on several different levels, with hundreds, even thousands, of other living beings (not necessarily other people) during our lives and the longer we have associated with them the more we have honed our sense of their presence when we are in some degree of proximity with them.
Did you ever have the sense, the feeling, that you were being watched when you are out here in the natural world? I have and I sense this pretty often when I'm out there. The reason we have this feeling is because something really IS watching us. And because of this sense the animals seem to know we are there and they sense a predator among them. In kind, we sometimes sense when they are there and begin to learn the very kind of cover in which they will be hiding or moving.
The "Creator" has given us this sense and some of us - those who heed the call to be hunters - have honed it and pay attention to its whisperings.
