The subtler one's awareness, the more powerfully it can heal.
Deepak ChopraRead
Unity consciousness is a state of enlightenment where we pierce the mask of illusion which creates separation and fragmentation. Behind the appearance of separation is one unified field of wholeness. Here the seer and the scenery are one.
Interpretation
Unity consciousness highlights the interconnectedness of all things, transcending the illusion of separation.
This quote by Deepak Chopra conveys the idea that the perception of separation among individuals and the world around us is an illusion. In a state of unity consciousness, one recognizes that beneath this illusion lies a fundamental oneness where individual identity merges with the collective whole, emphasizing that both the observer and the observed are intrinsically linked.
In practice
In a meditation session, to encourage participants to experience a sense of interconnectedness.

To promote the healing response, you must get past all the grosser levels of the body - cells, tissues, organs and systems -- and arrive at a junction point between mind and matter, the point where consciousness actually starts to have an effect.

According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms of enlightenment, just two indications that a transformation is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness. The first symptom is that you stop worrying. Things don't bother you anymore. You become light hearted and full of joy. The second symptom is that you encounter more and more meaningful coincidences in your life, more and more synchronicities. And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous.
I will practice acceptance. Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances, and events as they occur. I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. I will not struggle against the whole universe by struggling against this moment. My acceptance is total and complete. I accept things as they are this moment, not as I wish they were.
No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of their beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems.
There are times when sorrow seems to me to be the only truth.
Well I won't argue about the matter. You always want to argue about things. That is exactly what things were originally made for.
I think that when in doubt about the truth of an issue, it's safer and in better taste to select the least numerous of the adversaries.
For in grief nothing 'stays put.' One keeps on emerging from a phase, but it always recurs. Round and round. _x000D_ Everything repeats. Am I going in circles, or dare I hope I am on a spiral?
How sad the world is, so beautiful yet so absurd.
