Oneness

Joseph P. Kauffman
Wouldn’t your body be connected to the organic matter
and the earth from which it came, and consequently the
Universe in which the Earth exists, as well as all of the
other bodies that inhabit this Universe? If your body is
composed solely of the elements of the Universe, wouldn’t
your true body be the Universe itself?
In reality, there is only one body, and that body is the
entire cosmos. An inconceivable amount of relationships
are occurring between various energies and particles,
giving us the illusion that there are separate entities. But all
of these entities are connected to one another, made of
star dust, and when the temporary relationships that form
these apparently separate entities cease, these entities will
return to the very same star dust from which they
emerged.
Everything in the Universe is existing together, as one
entity. There is no separation, no isolation, no “me” vs.
“them;” there is only life, existing, moving, and evolving
together. The only reason we feel like we are isolated and
separate from one another is because we have been
conditioned to see reality from this illogical perspective.
But this feeling of separation is just a result of our
delusional perception of life. No matter how hard we try
to see ourselves as separate, the truth remains that we are
all one, eternally connected to each other on every level. In
order to heal this sense of disconnection within ourselves,
we need to heal our ignorant perception of life by
replacing our ignorance with knowledge and proper
understanding.
You may feel that you exist within your body, and that
your body is separate from the rest of the world, but is this
really true? Could you exist without the food that you eat,
the air that you breathe, the water you drink, the soil that
you walk on, or the sun that energizes the Earth?
So why do you view yourself as a separate entity? Your
body is made up of atoms that were formed in the core of
exploding stars, billions of years ago. The same particles
