Who knows?
The only way we know the divine is by our interaction with it. It can't be reproduced in a laboratory and can only be haltingly conveyed to each other through imperfect language.
I know many who feel that "God" is somehow a manifestation or outgrowth of the Universe itself while others, like myself, feel that God must have an extracuricular nature.
But again, who really knows?
I think the biggest danger when talking about such things is believing that we finite, flesh and blood creatures can fully understand the divine while we are on this plane of existance.
The best we can do is to grasp the elephant's leg and proclaim him to be like a great tree.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C. S. Lewis
