Yuno: Why God could have created everything and why then when he did? Why not before that?
I have no viewpoint on it as it is not relevant to me, there are many questions that one could answer, tell me what benefit the answer has to you?

Actually its impossible to answer, if God has been around forever, then time is irrelevant, I could say God did it a few years after God came on the scene, but God has always been on the scene, so your asking a human being an impossible question that only a God could answer, I am not a God unfortunately, but there are a few on this site that think they are, they could give you answer

I still find it really difficult to not seek the truth about why god created everything? I keep on thinking about it.
I humbly request for help to guide me what should I do?

Well all I can do is give you a humble answer,

someone asked a spanish guitarist why he played so fast, his answer was, 'because i can'

I went though a phase where I found it really difficult not to eat cheese, I kept thinking about, in the end, I just ate cheese till I got sick of it, so I guess you have to keep seeking till your sick of it, however, find your own cheese, don't eat someone else's, you might not like the taste, only you know you own tastes......

According to Gurbani, it’s not that our souls are something separate from Creator at all. Rather we are in a state of illusion of separation where we have forgotten that we really are ONE.

There is a reason for duality. As ONE there is nothing else and nobody else to make subjective comparison. As ONE it’s impossible to contemplate anything or anyone else. It’s only through duality that ONE can experience subjectively its own self. However it would not work if memory was retained as then the illusion of separateness collapses as soon as you realize you are in fact ONE.

I remember a quote which sums it up well... paraphrased... “Reality is the act of the ONE Creator experiencing itself subjectively through its own creation” and this must be done in amnesia of itself or it really isn’t able to grasp a separate point of observation... because well there really in reality is none.

When we speak of ‘merging’ back with Creator really what we should say is remove the veil of illusion which is keeping us from remembering that we are already ONE and always were ONE and always will be ONE.

I am a netjerist (netjerism/amonism is trust in the only one God Amun Ra the God of Egypt, the uncreated Sun)
What you said is exactly what said the Hermes Trismegistus, the book of Thor
: After God emerged ,from the Chaos of Universe particles ,as light , man was created with empirical matter but man which was created as a symmetry to God become fallen in love with the Matter and so forget it's divine nature and become mortal
the purpose of religion is to bring back man to his divine nature

Swarn ji, sorry for late reply. Would that mean everyone has the same soul?
I rather think we have different souls but. each of those souls and all of them is God
in Ancient Egypt it is said that Amun Ra the uncreated Sun , the only one God of Egypt which is all the Gods of Egypt, is the ba (soul) of all beings and of the universe
