Does this include Liberals, too? How about Democrats? Or, Iranians, terrorists, gays, or French people? Where are my ‘freedom fries’? And Jews, Muslims, Ba Hai, and Hindus, are they included, too?
ONENESS by Ernest Holmes
There is One Spirit incarnated in everyone, an immortal Presence forever expanding everything, causing everything to grow. What a difference it would make in our human relations if we tried to sense the meaning of this Divine incarnation in all people and adjust our viewpoint to the truth that all are bound together in the unity of God! While we may think otherwise, behind all this vast array of life there can be but one common Cause, one Universal Mind, one Infinite Spirit flowing into, through, and becoming everything.
We are so used to seeing ourselves as separate from each other that we suspect the very feeling and emotion that causes us to embrace everything in love. But the person who loves the most will live the most. We meet each other only in fragments, only partially, when we refuse to open the whole avenue of our consciousness to the realization that there is but one living Spirit in, over, and through all. If our human relations are to mean the most to us, we must sense that there is within everyone a Divine Presence manifesting Itself in infinite variations—the same impulse, the same love and life, but never quite alike in any two persons.
