One vs Many


The dichotomy of one vs many, unity vs division, connecting vs separation, etc. The two opposites that describe the whole, with all the options in between the two extremes.

Now, such is the law of science, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, as well as the Golden Rule of religions tells us that one reaps what one sows, hence Love one another, Do onto others or don't do, etc.

Together we are one, all life that is, and so this Divine Unity transcends to every atom of existence, in collective Human Kingdom, to each individual who are the manifestations of the whole universe in their respective points of perception, perspective, and reference, "the universe has its centre everywhere and its circumference nowhere."

In investigation of individual vs group, there are some other opposites to consider, more specifically the dichotomies of Divine Will vs Ego,  Connected vs Separated, One vs Many.

On one hand, one is connected to everything, the whole universe, on the other, one is alone with only their soul for a company at the summit of life and even during it. One is the individual, and One is All. The trick is to allign the two in the centre. Success has many parents but failure is an orphan. Everyone has their own journey towards the realization of the God's Will and beyond the enlightenment of it. 

All roads lead to the Divine Unity, it is rather the direction of travel, either toward of away from it. Would it be traveling as the individuals or the individual groups, such as the Homo sapiens, is Latin for "wise man," indicating something to do with the individual's abilities to use consciousness and free will to discern the Will of God vs the fancies of their unenlightened to this egos. Such journeys never get old with every new generations searching for gold.

Of course the individual is the smallest minority. I think it is obvious conclusion. There is so much to learn in so much time! No rush to get enlightened, or is there? After all, life is a journey, not a marathon. 

The ancient Egyptians where freaking out that they may forget something important they need after they die so they chanted their mantras, prayers, and spells every day, then also chiseled in stone and painted it all over the walls of their tombs, and wrote it diligently in their scrolls which where placed along with the protective amulets inside their sarcophagus, and in case that wasn't enough, they also copied the texts on the inside lid of the sarcophagus to be sure they have their notes at all time!
