We hear about the Divine Realms, where Everything Is One, where God Is All, and where your Being exists in joyful perfection. Then there's the world most people live in, where pain, suffering, separation, and conflict seem very real. Creating true balance in our lives means that we must bring the Divine Oneness into our "normal" world, but more often than not this seems like an impossibility. How can we be One when we appear to be separate?
One thing to understand is that our minds revolve around the paradigm of separation, and the whole perception of ourselves as separate entities is created by the mind. The separate mind cannot bridge the gap between Oneness and the illusion of separation, and all you're going to do is create cognitive dissonance trying to hold on to those two contradictory thoughts at the same time. Consciousness however, can embrace a paradox. Consciousness can exist peacefully with the Divine Mystery, which creates a sense of child-like wonder for all Life.
The Oneness That God Is cannot be understood logically. Thinking about Oneness is only a pale reflection of the Living Experience of Oneness. Oneness is not a concept because concepts come from a place of separation, the All is divided up to create individual concepts. Oneness, God, Love, the All, Source, those are all different labels for the Unknowable, and I don't think I need to explain the problems that arise with trying to know the Unknowable. Lucky for you, you don't have to know the Unknowable, you already ARE the Unknowable. You Are God, existing in divine perfection and Oneness with All That Is. You Are The One, You Are The All, and there exists no separation between the One and the All save for the illusions that you yourself put there in your unconsciousness.
