Unity - true Unity : that where nothing and no-one is excluded
In the realm of politics and economics, unity is almost always a matter of alliances based on selfish interests, somewhat like those of bandits who unite in order to carry out their crimes. Although this is obviously not unity in the true sense of the word, this is how people think of it – as banding together to pounce on others and to oust or even annihilate them. When the citizens of a nation say ‘Let's unite!' and the only goal of their union is to attack their neighbour, they cannot genuinely speak of unity. True unity is meant to be all-encompassing. If an organ in the human body establishes unity in itself but fails to work in harmony with the others, it will perhaps feel fine, but the others will suffer, and its unity will thus be compromised. When we speak of unity, we are referring to a universal, cosmic unity which excludes nothing and no-one. But this unity must first of all be established within ourselves: all our cells, all our tendencies must be directed towards God. Our efforts to bring this about will be reflected in all other unities, which will come together to create one universal whole.
