The Power of One

The whole world is a wonderful blend of diversity. No two beings are alike. Each one is unique and special. Life would be dreary if everything were identical. Yet we seem uncomfortable with differences and try to impose uniformity. We feel insecure when we come across people who look and think differently. And make enemies of them! This defeats the very purpose of globalisation. True globalisation is the ability to see oneness in the variety of different people, tap into their respective strengths and marginalise their weaknesses.

The ancient Indian sages discovered the art of zeroing in on the One behind the many. They declared the test of spiritual growth as the ability to feel one with all living beings. Yet in our experience we see differences, demarcations and multiplicity. This talk explains why we see differences, takes us through the benefits of feeling one and shows the way to see unity in the diversity in the world.
