ONENESS (ONE BIG FAMILY)

ONENESS       People from all over the world and from different cultures, have had spiritual moments, special moments, God Moments, which explains  our ONENESS, our common Divine Ultimate Reality, our common humanity, our interconnectedness. We are truly ONE big FAMILY journeying Home together. Years ago I read the following: All the faith traditions quench their thirst from the same Spirit-Source. What an excellent metaphor to explain our ONENESS.


If one completes the journey to one's own heart, one will find oneself in the heart of everyone else... Thomas Keating

Seeing God/Spirit in everyone ( pure vision ) lifts the veil of separation.   Dalai Lama

All differences in this world are of degree, and not of kind, because ONENESS is the secret of everything... Swami Vivekananda

"While all the world’s religions cannot and must not be reduced to one truth, their core teachings are unifying; they are all calling us to the truth of our essential oneness. This unity in diversity is a cause for celebration....."  Mirabai Starr

Consider your own place in the universal ONENESS of which we are  all a part, from which we all arise, and to which we all return... David Fontana

The solidarity of all separate groups in the flaming battle for the becoming of one humanity is the highest duty on earth.    Martin Buber

You are never alone.You are eternally connected with everyone... Amit Ray

All creatures are interdependent.
The eye with which I see God is the same eye with which God sees me: my eye and God’s eye are one eye, one seeing, one knowing, and one love. —Meister Eckhart

 "Emergent theories in Physics seem to confirm what mystics have been telling us all along—that we are one, not just all human beings, but all creation, the entire universe."
Judy Cannato ( visionary of the "new cosmology" )
  

Whether slave or free, we have all been made to drink into one Spirit... 1 Cor 12:13

You and I are all as much continuous with the universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean... Alan Watts


Though many, we are one Body in Christ * and each member belongs to all the others... Rom 12:5
* ( some scholars/writers call Christ, Cosmic;   timely, since Science now speaks of DNA and Field Theory)

We are here to awaken from the illusion of separateness. T. Nhat Hahn

DEATH

DEATH         Most people are afraid of even the word.   Yet, death means new life, free life , free of pain, worries, anxieties... new birth. The Buddhists recommend visiting morgues so as to realize the brevity of life here on earth and the importance of living well.  Christians and, I think that all spiritual people, urge us to reflect on that same truth. EVEN DEATH IS NOT TO BE FEARED BY ONE WHO HAS LIVED WISELY.   Buddha DO NOT FEAR FOR I AM WITH YOU , DO NOT BE DISMAYED FOR I AM YOUR GOD.  I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU.    Is 41:10 WHETHER WE LIVE OR DIE, WE ARE THE LORD'S.     Rom 14:8 DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY.    1 Cor 15:54 THE GRAVE IS ONLY A CURTAIN FOR THE PARADISE BEHIND.   Rumi LIFE AND DEATH ARE ONE, EVEN AS THE RIVER AND THE SEA ARE ONE.  K Gibran DEATH IS THE TRANSITION TO UNITY WITH ULTIMATE REALITY.  Thomas Keating THE OPPOSITE OF DEATH IS BIRTH....

JESUS, THE CHRIST TRINITY Why is Jesus called Jesus Christ? because Jesus is fully human and fully divine (paradox). How does Jesus fit into the triune God? Perhaps we can best see that in Jesus'prayer: THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS YOU AND I FATHER ARE ONE... Granted we know that God is beyond gender but the term Abba/Father implies love, so Jesus becomes HIS unique beloved Son and the love we feel in our heart, is the Holy Spirit. Now we have Trinity called by Christians. Hinduism, the oldest religion calls it by different names: SAT, CHIT, ANANDA. TRINITY is one, universal, inclusive and a powerful reality. We are invited to dance with the joyful relationship of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. SAT-CHIT-ANANDA, BEING-KNOWLEDGE-HAPPINESS, FATHER-SON-SPIRIT, TRUTH IS ONE AND UNIVERSAL. Richard Rohr OFM from his book: DEVINE DANCE. FROM THE FIRST MOMENT OF THE BIG BANG, NATURE WAS REVEALING THE GLORY AND GOODNESS OF THE DEVINE PRESENCE...by Richard Rohr from his book UNIVERSAL CHRIST, ...
