ONE...

"There is only one Life, one World; and this one Life, this one World,
appears to us to be manifold. This manifoldness is like a dream. When
you dream, one dream passes away and another comes. None of your
dreams are real. The dreams come one after another; scene after scene
unfolds before you. So it is in this world of ninety per cent misery
and ten per cent happiness. Perhaps after a while it will appear as
ninety per cent happiness, and we shall call it heaven. But a time
comes to the sage when the whole thing vanishes and this world appears
as God Himself, and his own soul as that God. It is not true that
there are many worlds; it is not true that there are many lives. All
this manifoldness is the manifestation of that One. That One is
manifesting Himself as many - as matter, spirit, mind, thought, and
everything else. Therefore the first step for us to take is to teach
the truth to ourselves and to others. Let the world resound with this
ideal and let superstitions vanish. Tell it to men who are weak, and
persist in telling it."

"Everything that makes for oneness is truth. Love is truth and hatred
is falsehood, because hatred makes for multiplicity.".........Vivekananda
