Wayne Dyer in Wisdom of the Ages (Chp. on Oneness)
Uses Dunne’s 16th century poem on “No man is an island…….”
“See God in everyone and everything and behave each day as if the God in all things truly mattered. Try to suspend your judgements of those who are less ambitious, less peaceful, and less loving, and instead know that hatred and judgement are the problems in the first place. When you judge the haters and hate the judgers, you are part of the cancer rather than the treatment.”
“Use fewer labels that distinguish you from ‘them’. You are not an American, Californian, Italian, Jew, middle-aged, stocky, female, athletic, or any other label. You are a citizen of the world and when you stop the labeling process you will begin to see God in every garden, every forest, every home, every creature, and every person, and inner peace will be your reward.”
Eckhart and Oprah had something to say about oneness in their webcast:
“We are connected – one with the Universal Source of Power or Energy – we allow that Power to flow through us and this Source supports us as we do. Or allow God within to come through and God supports It.” Oprah with Eckhart on Awakening To Your Life’s Purpose. Chp. 9, p.265 (In dialogue about “evolving universe.)
Here are some quotes from the ACIM about Oneness:
The holiest of all the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present love. t, 522
Put all your faith in the Love of God wihin you: eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is the answer to whatever confronts you today. W, 75
A sense of separation from God is the only lack you really need correct. t, 11
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
....that obstacles are not opposing you, but merely and
gently re-routing you.
It is important not to view that which stands in your
way as your 'enemy.' It can often be your best friend,
sending you on a detour that takes you around what
could have been your biggest stumbling block.
Send a word of gratitude, then, for anything that seems
to be 'opposing' you now. All things in life happen for
good. Trust God about that.
Love, Your Friend....Neale Donald Walsh
Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV
