Unity in Diversity

In essence we are one, but in nonsense we are many. We need essence and nonsense. Life is for fun; otherwise God could have just created everyone alike with the same thoughts. Everything is God’s Will. Nothing happens without God’s Will. God allows this chaos. Why? God must have thought, “Only by this chaotic situation will they really thirst for peace. Then, if I give them peace, they will really relish it.”

That is why we are looking for peace. We have had enough of fights and problems. If you realize this, you can begin right in your own home. Love your family, your pets, your plants. Do not treat them as something different from yourself. They all have the same essence, the same spirit.

If we want to show the unity in diversity, that is where we can begin. At home, with our pots and pans. You may be angry with your husband or wife, but do not put the pot down with a bang. Be gentle. See the same spirit in everything. That is unity in diversity. There is nothing without life in this world. Be gentle, be nice, be loving. See your own Self in all and treat everything properly. That is how to show the unity in diversity visibly and powerfully. A real spiritual experience means to see the unity in diversity.
