Being One with the Creator
Enlightened people throughout history have tried to teach us of our unity with GOD. In the ancient east a young boy considered to be an Avatar, was approached by a group of people. They offered the boy a bribe - a fresh orange - if he could tell them where GOD is. Without hesitation he replied that he would give them two oranges, if they could show him where GOD was not.
Everything is GOD.

But i am more than just cells. How does that apply?
We are collectively linked to one another and to GOD in three ways:
- Body
- Mind
- Spirit
How can i put this knowledge to use?
As previously mentioned, it's about practice. We need our thoughts to believe that we are all One with the Divine. We need to speak this truth in words. And, of course, how we act must express the perspective of unity.
Jesus taught us to "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Seeing each other as part of the same body - as One and the same - is how we put Unity into action.
Spend the day seeing yourself in others.
For an entire day, pretend that each person you meet is yourself. How would you want someone to speak to you? If you're having a bad day, would you want others to show you compassion? Would you want a stranger to lend a hand or let you struggle by yourself? What tone of voice would you like to hear?
At the end of the day, observe how you feel. Think about what it would be like if everyone acted as you did today.
