One But Unique

Is onesness a cliché or an abstract idea?  If this is so widely advocated, why are there still chaos and disputes in our world?  Oneness is indeed true as each and every one of us in the universe is a fragment of the ONE consciousness.  But the lack of such recognition has resulted in misunderstanding and conditioning of the human race, hence making us believe that our lives are marked by separation and demarkation.  Yet at the same time we are also unique in a sense that we are part and parcel of the whole - each of us is one piece of the puzzle that holds the key to the truth.  While we are unique beings with our own role to play, we all have the same fundamental human needs, the same craving to connect and be loved.  And precisely because we share one consciousness, we can, if willingly, see from others what is unconsciously projected from within us and know ourselves better.  This is true whether we are referring to a relationship with another individual or the collective.

Oneness can only be experienced, and not just talked about superficially over tea.  The key to this, which you already own, is wisdom and love.    

Inner and Outer Awareness

Most people live by the day with a reasonably strong outer awareness.  We are aware of how our senses interpret the external world - what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch.  What ties in with such interpretations are our preferences and judgement based on our feelings towards our experiences.  But not too many people will also look inwards and see how we have arrived at these conclusions, which is what inner awareness is all about.  Inner awareness is understanding and seeing where our perception comes from.  It explains how and why we see the reality of "our" worlds.  Happiness and freedom is about aligning the inner and outer awareness.  The flow takes place when we can choose to have the experiences we would like to have (outer) by adopting the right frame of mind and beliefs (inner).
