Nirguna Brahman, God without attributes; and Saguna Brahman, God with attributes.

Very interesting. I know for certain, that a being is God to me, me being a person. But I see God as being a separate entity. I don't feel, God helps me. He doesn't know I exist, because perhaps, I don't know if he does know I exist.

Personal, but yet I see evidence of an impersonal God as well. I hate being conflicted.

Impersonal, definitely impersonal and unfathomable in all known manners. I would not even bother praying to God honestly
As personal as the Way nature flows, for those are his actions.

Deism 101
I find it deeply personal as we're all effected by it, so I wouldn't necessarily call it Deism 101, unless my understanding of Deism is wrong

Deists belief that nature and physical existence is all that is needed to conclude there is a god and understand him.
I thought this is what you were implying with this message. Or was I wrong?
100% impersonal.
I still perform rituals and go to puja, because I want to understand God more (I'm considering following Jnana yoga; the path of knowledge). However, I do not think it is loving, ominpotent or omnipresent.

the way I can answer this one is transcendent means existentialism. existentialism says humans only apprehend and touch the highest power in the manifestations of the modes we see around us or are embedded in. We touch essence in how we direct the modes or how we ride the modes of nature as they flow. We observe that the energy in the modes transcends us and transcends each other but then anchors all existing things as actual. Yeah, "it's" just gonna be a lot of times nonlinked to things a mind might link it to yet stubbornly there it is.

I say my gods are personal and undoubtedly real and apparent to me. I have absolute faith.
