Unity

[Fool]

Isn't ONEness the idea of making all things equal?


That the haughty will be humbled and the humbled will be lifted up?

Doesn't love come with justice, balance, equilibrium, uniformity?


Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:

New Isn't ONEness the idea of making all things equal?

No. Oneness is a state of being at one with a larger entity. Equal means things are of an identical status.
Things such as equal and equality really didn't exist when we first started writing about this "oneness," often even explicitly prohibited.

Isn't ONEness the idea of making all things equal?

Having written extensively on the subject of Oneness for literally decades I have to admit that I have never, not even once, referred to Oneness in this manner. Oneness is not sameness.

That the haughty will be humbled and the humbled will be lifted up?

Doesn't love come with justice, balance, equilibrium, uniformity?


Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:

You might want to rethink this wish of aggressive mediocrity. This odd wish to obliterate diversity is not what Oneness is all about. Quite the opposite, really.

Kurt Vonnegut explored this very dystopia in his story "Harrison Bergeron". It's a fine read.

 

[allfoak]

We have rules here on RF because the concept of keeping the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace is not understood.
If it were, the conversation would be much different.

one and the same

a cat is a chat, gato, Katze doesn't change the thing, or idea.

Laufen is a fonctionnement, running, corriendo doesn't change the action, or idea.


words are symbols, or vehicles for ideas. ideas are not unique to cultures. forms, or symbols, are.

you might wish to learn that diversity is based on culture, and culture is based on environment. walking in the desert is no different than Laufen in a forest.

ideas can often be hard to grasp with language being materialistically restricted to secular vs spiritual, hindu vs buddhist, atheist vs theists.


language usally isn't exclusive to denominations; unless it's been conditioned for controlling/defining a group.

an open mind can accept a gift, no matter what it's wrapped in, eh?

While it is true that one should keep an open mind, one must also endeavor to make sure that the mind is not so open that the brain rolls out onto the floor.

I have learned to apply everything to my own personal life.
After all, i am responsible for everything that happens in my life.
It would only make sense that i would also take responsibility for this understanding and do the best that i can to create the life that i want.

LOL,

an open mind is like an open door. everyone can walk through, no matter what side they're coming from.

Forgive me, I assumed you were meaning the state of consciousness commonly known as Oneness. Since that is clearly not what you were meaning I won't trouble you further.
