Unity, Diversity and Wholeness

The use of the phrase "unity in diversity"
has recently become widespread;
it should really be "diversity seeking unity."
The many are yearning for the state of oneness;
but to speak of a state of oneness is to indulge in Neptunian illusion.

All that man may reach is a consciousness of unity;
dualism remains the actual fact,
except perhaps at the most metaphysical level.
In terms of existence, we should speak of wholeness, not oneness.

Wholeness is unity in manifestation.
