He who perceives all beings as the Self' for him how can there be
delusion or grief, when he sees this oneness (everywhere) ?
He who perceives the Self everywhere never shrinks from anything, because
through his higher consciousness he feels united with all life. When a man
sees God in all beings and all beings in God, and also God dwelling in his own
Soul, how can he hate any living thing? Grief and delusion rest upon a belief
in diversity, which leads to competition and all forms of selfishness. With
the realization of oneness, the sense of diversity vanishes and the cause of
misery is removed.
