loostudent, you are right - the Creation is what the Creator pours his "heart and soul" into, metaphorically speaking. The Creator is the Creation's beloved, but also vice versa: the Creation is the Creator's beloved. It is the Creator's principal activity, as far as we know. It's important.
I think it's also essential to distinguish between the meanings of illusion and hallucination.
A hallucination is a false perception of something that is not actually there, does not exist.
An illusion is a perception of something that exists - but in such a way that it appears to be something else.
Illusion best describes what we see around us. It has been meticulously and lovingly crafted to appear to be a self-contained world of multiplicity, where, as Quo says, what is ultimately real appears the least real, and vice versa. It's a marvel.
