The starting point of the origin of human beings and the culminating point of their movement is the same. It is the natural law for any entity to originate from and merge in the same source. The fundamental stuff of all humans is the Macrocosmic Consciousness. All are children of the Supreme Immortality, all are equal. Therefore, there should not be any discrimination.
In the external world, however, we notice numerous conflicts among human beings. So, can we truly say that there is no difference between people? Where is the unity which creates a common bond among human beings? To get the proper answer, one has to go deep into human psychology because true unity lies in the realm of the human mind.
The ‘extroversial’ mind of human beings, due to inherent samskaras, becomes obsessed with and influenced by the external environment. A person influenced by the imposed samskaras of society may start hating another person, but this hostility is something external.
Internally, all human beings feel a deep attraction for others. This attraction is the natural wont of living beings. Had there been no balancing force among the objects created by the Macrocosmic Mind, then the entire cosmological structure would have shattered into pieces. The cosmological balance is maintained due to this attraction amongst the different objects and entities.
From atoms and molecules to human beings with developed consciousness, all entities feel attraction for one another.
He keeps all the finite entities bound to Him by His inscrutable Cosmic Love. All entities drift in the vast divine flow as the minute manifestations of the Supreme Lord.
They are entitled to Cosmic Love by birth. That is why one should remember that attraction is the law of nature. Attraction is not negative repulsion, rather repulsion is negative attraction. The so-called differences we notice amongst human beings in the external world are nothing but expressions of negative attraction. For differences to occur, people must enter into some sort of relationship with each other.
Without proximity there cannot be any friction. A serious difference of opinion today may be changed into friendship tomorrow.
Thus, instead of reacting to apparent differences, one should seek internal unity. The various differences which split society must be removed in the interest of collective welfare. In order to do that, one must look for the common link, the points of affinity, in the multifarious lifestyles and diverse expressions of life.
Our policy should be: ‘Aspects of unity should be encouraged and aspects of disunity should be discouraged.’ If this principle is strictly followed, there will be an increase in human unity and a corresponding decrease in the degree of disunity.
That is why for permanent unity, a spiritual outlook is necessary.
This supreme treasure teaches human beings that Param Purush is the Supreme Father, Param Prakriti – the Supreme Operative Principle – is their Supreme Mother, and the entire universe is their homeland. The reason is that this cosmic ideology is based on the absolute truth, which is not confined to time, space and person. Only then will our society become one and indivisible. Only then will it be worthy of being called a ‘human society’.
