Now, let's return to the topic of the Absolute (sorry for the irregular updates, I'm just in the middle of exams and my head is often occupied with other things, so I have to interrupt). As I understand it, all your objections regarding the Absolute stem from the fact that, as an initially non-sentient energy, it cannot create anything. You are right about the wind; it was a bad example, but energy is not wind. A more accurate example is that energy flows create magnetic fields, electric fields, and auras. I don't know how the Absolute created the Universe, but you don't know how God created it either (the 7 days described in the Bible have many contradictions). We can assume that flows of primordial energy, changing, created magnetic, electric, etc., fields, which somehow transformed into material objects. The more objects appeared, the more complex they became. And the Absolute began to develop consciousness because it ceased to be flows of energy and became the Universe. Those parts that gained individuality and consciousness separated from the Absolute and became gods. Some gods were created by humans (or other sentient beings?), while others appeared in the process of creating simpler objects.
