I had a thought recently about the idea of the Holy Trinity. It seems to me that the image of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost was created through a filter of human societal and religious (Catholic specifically) dogma. We tend to interpret the world through our belief systems and our experiences. We are also significantly influenced by the culture within which we are raised. And for that reason, it is no surprise that we are saddled with this very precise imagery. Since people as a rule tend to be literal in their reading of scripture the figure of father is masculine (obviously), and typically sits on a throne like a king or other ruler of olden days. The Son of God is imagined as Jesus, a Caucasian with long flowing hair and a neatly trimmed beard dressed in Greek garb (thanks largely to Alexander the Great). When it comes to the Holy Ghost no one has any idea because the whole concept of incorporeal is not relatable. This is probably the most honest perception that there is of any of the three entities.

I would like to propose something less definitive and more inclusive. Rather than Father, Son and Holy Ghost I would say that it should be parent, child and love. Parent can be either male or female or even gender neutral. The child is the creation and the incarnation rising out of the union of Parent and Love. Love is a non-dual field and it is incorporeal. On top of all that it is all encompassing and enveloping, ergo, ONE.
