_{OSHO ON ONENESS}

The universe is a living body, an organic unity. In it nothing is isolated, all is connected.

Whatever is far away is connected to that which is near, nothing is separate. So no one should remain in a fallacy that he is an isolated island, separate, aloof.

Each one is connected to the whole, and each one is all the time affecting the other and being affected by the other. Even when you pass by a stone lying on the road, it is throwing its vibrations in your direction.

The flowers too are throwing out their vibrations. And you are not just passing by, you too are throwing out your vibrations.

It is said that we are affected by the moon and the stars. Another idea that astrology has is that the moon and the stars are affected by us, because influence comes from both directions.

Whenever a man like Buddha is born on the Earth, the moon may not    realise that it is because of him that storms are not arising on its surface or that because of Buddha the storms have subsided.

The moon is affected and the sun is also moved. When spots occur on the sun and storms arise, diseases spread across the Earth.

When a person like Buddha is born on the Earth, a current of peace flows, the pillar of consciousness grows strong, and the deep beauty of meditation moves over the Earth; which also makes it difficult for a storm to arise on the sun because everything is joined together.

A tiny blade of grass has an impact on the sun, and the sun has its impact on the blade of grass. The blade of grass is not so tiny that the sun can say, "I do not care about you," nor is the sun so big that it can say, "What can this blade of grass do for me?"

Life is interconnected

Here nothing

is big or small

Everything

is one organic unity

We are one, after all, you and I. Together we suffer, together exist, and forever will recreate each other.
