'Each of us stands apart from everything that is not us and, from the moment of our arrival the world wastes no time in confirming our sundered and solitary status. And yet for some of us what I term our Mystic Experience muddies the waters. We regard everything and everyone as facets of a unified and undivided totality. We suspect that every separation and distinction is illusory, a misunderstanding arising from our embodiment. This is Mysticism, the belief that all is One'.

(From the 'Kindom of the One; The Gospel of Thomas')
