Why is there division if all is one?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Division is merely an illusion of the interpreting mind; when perception fades, the nondual Whole reveals itself."
According to Osho, division exists only as an appearance created by the interpreting mind; what we see is our projection, not reality. Beauty/ugliness, light/dark, hot/cold are relative to the seer’s capacity. When interpretation drops and no-mind dawns, the apparent fractures dissolve and the nondual Whole reveals itself. Investigate every split; you’ll find perception, not Being, makes the divide.
Division is like colors you see through your own glasses; take off the glasses (your interpretations) and everything is one.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you question labels and reduce knee-jerk judgments and conflicts.
- Encourages meditation/no-mind to experience unity and inner peace.
- Brings flexibility: seeing relativity softens extremes of pleasure/pain and friend/enemy.
