Oneness

 

There is something within each of us, within each being, each

creature, that is the same in all. This innermost essence knits all

existence into a mystical oneness in which all differences are

transcended and dissolved. It is when you are activated in the depth

of your being that you get the blessing of this oneness.

 

This oneness goes beyond the barriers of creed or dogma or theology of

any sect or cult. It is the deepest inner-most essence of each

individual spirit. It is this inner stirring within the heart of the

individual that is the eternal religion, that is the one great power

that pervades the whole world, which immediately makes one kin with

all that exists.

 

It makes a human being kin, not only with another human being, but

even with a blade of grass, or a flower, or a little beetle, or a bee,

or even with the wild beast of the jungle. You feel kinship with all

nature through this power. It is the power of God's love.

 

And the power of God's love stirs, not in the human brain or the human

intellect, but in the human heart. It is this power that makes one

give up one's life for the life of another, to do anything for the

benefit of another. No sacrifice is too great. A sacrifice is not even

looked upon as sacrifice. " I lose nothing. I gain if my brother is the

gainer, because my brother is my own self. Everyone is my own self, my

own reflection. " For ultimately, that is the supreme commandment of

all the Great Ones: to love one another.

 

At this moment in time, let us all make up our minds that whosoever is

with us, whosoever is in front of us, is my neighbour, my brother, my

sister. Let us relate ourselves to one another by expressing His love

and in this way strive to overcome the clash and conflict, hatred and

violence that is so prevalent nowadays. That the brotherhood and

harmony of all living being may prevail.
