"Love your neighbor as yourself." - Bible - Mark 12:31 (1 min 24 sec)
Preview
Love your neighbor as yourself" takes on a more profound meaning when we take a deeper look. The idea that the external world, including our perception of others as separate individuals, is an illusion. Our true reality is in the realm of the spirit, where we are all interconnected and share a common identity as children of God.
1. **Neighbor as Yourself**
Neighbor" doesn't refer solely to the people living next door but to every individual, including those we may perceive as different or even as adversaries. Love encourages us to see everyone as an extension of ourselves, part of the same divine source.
2. **Love**
Love is the only reality and our true nature. It's not just a feeling but a recognition of the divine presence in others. Loving your neighbor as yourself means acknowledging the divine in them, just as you would in yourself.
3. **Recognition of Oneness**
Our separation from God and each other is an illusion. When we love our neighbor as ourselves, we recognize that we are all one with God. Such an awareness transcends the ego's judgments and grievances.
