What do you refer to the ultimate reality/deity/force behind the gods as, i tend to use 'it', flowing through all existence manifesting as seperate divinities.x

I usually just say "The Divine." In some Wiccan traditions I know they use the name Dryghten.

I call it Ntjr or Netjer. It is how the hieroglyph used to write God or the Divine was (approximately) pronounced.

I've never really thought about it. I suppose I use "life-force" when talking about it. Hmm Makes me think I need a better word though!

I use various things:
All
Spirit
Divine
Sacred

Those don't really sum it up though-- something that's all encompassing.

Usually Netjer, but if I'm talking with people who aren't familiar with what Netjer is: The Divine, The Source, That Which Is...The Ineffable. Unnamed.

I tend to call it "The Great Mystery" or, as the Taoists would call it, the Tao.

I usually say "The Great Mystery", "The Divine, "The All". Mystery of Mysteries. Good question though!---shuvanilu

I'll say its the force. Actually I usually call it, 'It'. Deep aren't I?

The Creator

"The Great Mother" or "The Goddess" I don't really think the creative force of the univers has gender, but we do, and we think in terms of it. Though men are certainly part of the creative force, they aren't the obviously pregnant and bearing part... so.... that's why I go feminine.

The body of "it" is made up of what we smell,see,taste,and feel, and think.
if you attempted to point at it then you only see a single part,learn
to see the whole of "it",and it ceases to be that,learn to see all of this
without seeing,tasting,smelling,feeling,and thinking. and that is "it".

Mostly "Netjer" or "the Divine", sometimes just "God".

I like to refer to 'it' as the sum of all things.

Netjer, the Divine, Totality, occasionally God or Braman.

"The Divine" or "The Goddess"...not that I'm prejudiced against male deities, that's just how I interpert it.

In Feri, the highest divine being is the Star Goddess, mother of the gods. She isn't just female though, she is pansexual.
