I can't say that I "see" the creator, but I have lived long enough that I sometimes see a younger version of myself in another self, and that helps. By now it's pretty automatic, although some people are a real challenge.
A favorite author Robert Anton Wilson used to live in my part of the world and gave talks at a new age event. He said he would turn on the radio to Rush Limbaugh just to test whether he could listen to that without getting angry. That got a laugh in the audience, but RL would be a tough challenge, no matter what your leanings would be. His job is to get listeners angry, and he doesn't care a bit if they are angry at him.
If somebody does start my pulse to rise, I notice it and usually that makes me smile, at least inwardly. I remind myself that the person is the creator, and try to be grateful to be in such presence. That usually works, but I'm not perfect.
