connected to the universe and they are connected to all living things.

The point is that if you accept that there is only one energy in all things, then
on an energy level there is no giving or receiving–just energy moving around
within itself. It’s only the ego that sees a separateness in things. So the ego
will say, “The Cadillac went from Harry to Sally.” But on an infinite level, it
is neither Harry’s nor Sally’s, it is a part of all things. It is. Where it finds
itself and whose name is on the owner’s manual is irrelevant. ~Stuart Wilde

They become one as a running stream.
~Kabir
In real love there is no relationship, because there are not two persons to be
related to. In real love there is only love, a flowering, a fragrance, a melting, a
merging. Only in egoistic love are there two persons, the lover and the loved.
And whenever there is the lover and the loved, love disappears. Whenever
there is love, the lover and the beloved both disappear into love. ~Osho
I love you deeply, for in truth we are old friends. We are One. ~Drunvalo
Melchizedek
We are still totally interconnected no matter what we do. You cannot
disappear into your own blissful void, because you are part of everyone and
they are part of you. ~Robert Thurman

is only the sweetest feeling of spontaneous oneness with the human being or
beings concerned. ~Sri Chinmoy
All experiences, both high spiritual experiences and mundane experiences,
are expressions of what you are. There quite literally is not another place you
need to go, because every place, every experience, is already 100 percent
what you are. ~Adyashanti
Separate yourself from all twoness. Be one on one, one with one, one from
one. ~Meister Eckhart
The moment your heart opens towards me, I am with you wherever you are.
~Osho
The body is a sensing instrument of consciousness. Without the body and
mind, the trees could not see themselves. Usually we think that we are
looking at a tree, but the tree is looking at itself through us. Without this
instrument, the tree does not get to see itself. We are sensing instruments of
the Divine. ~Adyashanti
We are already one. But we imagine that we are not. And what we have to

eternal One. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

into. ~Adyashanti

relationship with life because you are life. ~Adyashanti
Only when your hearts are empty of the things of the mind, is there love.
Then you will know what it is to love without separation, without distance,
without time, without fear. ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
Oneness is different from merging. You don’t have to merge with something.
This is a realization of the pre-existing unity of all things. You don’t lose the
transcendent quality; you just gain the whole universe along with it.
~Adyashanti
Love is seeing the unity under the imaginary diversity. ~Nisargadatta Maharaj
Don’t create any division between matter and spirit. Existence is one…matter
and spirit are simply two sides of the same coin. ~Osho
Since everything is interrelated, since all things depend one upon another,
nothing is absolute, nothing is separate, but all are part of the one indivisible
whole. ~Thich Thien-An

part can contain the whole. ~Christopher Gray

tender toward what ever came my way–
every texture–joy or pain–
searing sun or healing rain,
for I have seen the masks of my Beloved.
~Kirtana
Remember, when you are in a relaxed mood, you are not. You are, only when
you are in a tense mood. When you are relaxed you are part of the whole; you
are not. Then boundaries are blurred; then the whole and the part are no more
separate. They meet, they merge… surrender happens. ~Osho
Whoever finds love beneath hurt and grief disappears into emptiness with a
thousand new disguises. ~Rumi
And the truth means the whole, all that is, the total…But there is no way to
define truth because there is no way to draw a line around it. It is infinite, it is
eternal. It has no beginning, it has no end. ~Osho
We are members of a vast cosmic orchestra, in which each living instrument
is essential to the complementary and harmonious playing of the whole. ~J.
Allen Boone
To have the eyes of enlightenment is to see the thread of divinity throughout
all of the diversity, to see the sameness within all of the uniqueness.
~Adyashanti
There is only ‘One’ Self in All Creatures.
The One appears many,
Just as the moon appears many,
Reflected in water.
~Amritabindu Upanishad
