“In the West we have thought of God not only as a monarch but as the maker of the world. And as a result of that, we look upon the world as an artifact, a sort of machine, created by a great engineer. There’s a different conception in India where the world is not seen as an artifact but as a drama, and therefore God is not the maker and architect of the universe but the actor of it, and therefore is playing all the parts at once.”
