Circles And Dots

This is a very interesting story authored by Ameeta Kaul. According to my understanding the dot represents the individual self and the circle represents the universal self. It is like an island in the ocean. Outwardly both the universal self and the individual self look different. But when we go beyond the individual self, we see the universal self. It's a matter of perspective. The limited and narrow perspective creates the world of several individual dots creating distance between one dot and other dots. It creates divisiveness and disintegration in the forms of race, religion, caste, class and political parties. When such differences create walls of ups and downs and mine and thine, such differences create fights, battles and wars. We are seeing the impact of this mindset in our own country and in many other countries. Such walls could result in everyday stress and tension in relationships and it may result in fights, battles and wars. It is my conviction that we are going to go through a lot of stress and tension that will have a severe impact on our personal, interpersonal and universal life. There is still time to wake up to build bridges of unconditional love, kindness, compassion and consideration. I have witnessed and experienced the power of unconditional love and acceptance in my own life. Such experiences have enriched and blossomed my life. I am offering weekly zoom sessions in which people from different countries and races, of different religious orientations join hands and hearts to create harmony in spite of differences. Differences can create thick and big walls. We can overcome these self-created walls and create oneneness in manyness, unity in diversity. This is a journey and I invite all of us to join our heads, hearts and hands and work for unity. And that way we create love, kindness and compassion in the world. This is my aspiration. This is my prayer! Namaste. Jagdish P Dave
