Sometimes one wonders - are Gods truly visible or were these visible Gods created for some reason? Surely, God is invisible. Who, what, where is beyond man’s comprehension. There is a power unknown to man; a power that created man and the universe. But because man needs to believe in God, understand God, appreciate God, a visible God was created, a personal God. This gave birth to religions, with so many religions speaking of different Gods. It is very difficult for a young child who is growing into an adult to be able to imagine a God that doesn’t physically exist before his eyes. Where is this God? Who is this God? What is this God? He is not able to comprehend all this. Therefore, an imaginary, visible God has been created in each community. A God which people fear; a God which people believe in, pray to and love. Different people treat God differently, but everybody in the evolution stage, that is, the first stage – first sees this visible God. And this is needed to build faith in the power. What happens after one builds faith in the power? Honestly, once you have faith and that faith evolves to a particular level, then you start asking questions about this power that you see, that’s visible to your eyes and then you realize that the true power that you are seeking is beyond the visible God. God is the omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent one and then you start the journey of seeking that power.

Agree with you, in the esoteric it is so stated:
An Omnipresent, Eternal, Boundless, and Immutable PRINCIPLE on which all speculation is impossible, since it transcends the power of human conception and could only be dwarfed by any human expression or similitude. It is beyond the range and reach of thought — it is "unthinkable and unspeakable."
There is one absolute Reality which antecedes all manifested, conditioned, being.
This Infinite and Eternal Cause — dimly formulated in the "Unconscious" and "Unknowable" — is the rootless root of "all that was, is, or ever shall be."
It is devoid of all attributes and is essentially without any relation to manifested, finite Being. It is "Be-ness" rather than Being it is beyond all thought or speculation.
The Creative principles are manifested in and through the so called Gods..which is a plural in manifestation and is named by different religions and schools of teaching by their own terms but the principles are One.

When I was a little kid I was very afraid of the dark; I guess I had an over active imagination. Now I don't seem to care what I see or can't see . I already pretty much know what is out there. Indeed much research precedes each and every step. There are no surprises.
Well I admit I have gotten a few surprises lately that lead to some embarrassment . I may have not have seen all that was coming when the others did. But no matter how advanced they were there was the possibility of misinterpretation. That made me a little less jealous of them.
I don't think any of us understand all that we see yet. Which is probably why claiming to see G*d can be dismissed as a joke. Who knows ? Plus I hate to hurt someones feelings. Just because they do have an imagination and I do not.
Some times - late at night - when I am tired - I wonder if the Cosmos does reveal itself to some and not others and if so why and how the Cosmos can make fun of us like that. It doesn't seem fair or logical. You would think I was just a little kid and couldn't be trusted with such knowledge.

Our Soul is invisible, but Soul can see other Souls, by Soul travel if escorted by a Master to the realm of God, then one can see God, otherwise our physical eyes can never see God. There are Godmen but there not the true God, there messengers of God, there God like, which is the closes we can be
