Lest one think that only some religions recognize the distinction between the formless Father and the phenomenal Mother and her universe, here are the founders or sages of more religions also recognizing them. Lao Tzu for instance honored the distinction. “It began with a matrix: The world had a mother.” “Nameless indeed is the source of creation [i.e., the Father], But things have a mother and she has a name.” The Muslim Kabir also distinguishes between the two: “The formless Absolute is my Father, and God with form is my Mother.” Thus Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Taoism, and Islam have all been shown to recognize both Father, Mother, and universe. According to Ramakrishna, the Divine Mother created everything from Consciousness. Paramahansa Yogananda’s spiritual vision could see the building block of life, which he named the “lifetron.” He revealed that “microcosmically each lifetron … was composed of the elements God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.” The Mother creates the universe God the Father creates the world through God the Mother and then enters each life form as a fragment of himself called God the Son. Hindus would call these Brahman, Shakti and Atman. But all three are nothing other than consciousness differentiated by their reach, which Yogananda defined as “transcendental Cosmic Consciousness [the Father, Brahman], … Christ Consciousness [the Son, Atman], and … Cosmic Energy [the Holy Spirit, Shakti]. Having created the lawful universe, the Divine Mother now becomes its material structure, while the Father enters that material structure as the Son or soul in the heart. - excerpt from Golden Age of Gaia, Love of Divine Mother Universe
