How can we feel the oneness of shared being with another person whilst having a conversation with them? When we look at someone through perception, don’t we experience them as a separate person rather than as our own being?
Rupert says: ‘It’s because you look at reality through the lens of perception. Reality is one, and infinite, and whole, and indivisible. It is your mind that projects multiplicity and diversity onto it. The consciousness with which I know my experience, and the consciousness with which you know your experience, is the same consciousness. You are already experiencing the fact that one consciousness looks through two perceiving faculties – it’s only a small step from there to think that maybe a single consciousness looks through eight billion eyes.’
‘Love veiled is relationship and relationship dissolved is love. You can feel the love that is the foundation of your relationship. The most important thing to know about everyone without exception is that you share your being with them. Whenever you meet anyone, remind yourself that your being and their being are the same being. Don’t just understand that, feel it. You love everyone, but you don’t like everyone – our being has no preferences, but the mind is full of them.’
