In most Indian religions, all existences are vibrations in the infinite space time continuum. This time and space exists within the dream of the infinite consciousness. The Creator does not have a physical body, only the spiritual presence. He is the intelligence that supports the entire universe, and every thought/desire that arises in this intelligence gives rise to a form.
In the begining, there was sleeping conciousness and the infinite space. When it awoke a part of it thought, I am light and became plasma. Another part of it thought, I am fluid and became water. Another part thought, I am firm and became earth. Though all these forms are in nature pure intelligence, on account of self-forgetfulness of this, and of the thought of physical forms, they freeze in the physical forms. -And the ignorance of this experience is called Maya.
Parmatma is also called Antaryami, meaning "the controller within" and refers to God residing within the hearts of all beings. The All-pervading sunshine is not different from the sun. Both are heat and light, yet the sun retains its form and identity as the source of all light. Just as the sun may be reflected in numerous water surfaces, the one and only God is reflected in the hearts of all living beings as the Antaryami.

“ The kingdom of God is within you.”
- Luke 17:21
You are spirit, in human form having an earthly experience. Even more, by being in the physical body still does not limit your connection with God. One limits their connection to God through free will by the choices they decide to make throughout their life. Your thoughts lead to the future, and if your thoughts aren't with God daily than you will be failing to access your spiritual inner being because within you is God.[1]
