UNITY OF THE ONE CONSCIOUSNESS

When we look around us, what do we see?  Continuous change.  The plant comes out of the seed, grows into the tree, lives its life, then goes back to the seed, completing its cycle.  The animal is born, lives a certain length of time, and then dies, which concludes its cycle.

Mountains slowly but surely crumble away, rivers gradually dry up, and rains come out of the sea only to go back to the sea.  Everywhere these cycles occur: birth, growth, development, and decay, each phase following the other with mathematical precision.

Inside of it all, behind all this mass of what we call life, of millions of forms and shapes, of millions upon millions of varieties, from the lowest atom to the highest spiritualized individual, we find an unmistakable unity.

It is the unity of the One Consciousness, Brahman, a painting of many images yet only one painting.
