The Law of Attraction and Socio-Economic Unity

Both the origin and the culminating point of the movement of human beings is the same.

It is the natural law for any entity to originate from the same source and to merge in the same source.

The fundamental stuff of all the humans of this world is the Macrocosmic Consciousness.

Fundamentally all human beings are equal.

In the external world, however, there are numerous conflicts and strife among humans.

The extroversial mind of human beings, due to inherent Saḿskaras, becomes obsessed with and influenced by the external environment.

A person influenced by the imposed Saḿskaras of the society may start to hate another person. But this hostility is something external.

Internally, all human beings feel a natural deep attraction for others.

Had there been no balancing force among the objects created by the Macrocosmic Mind, then the entire cosmological structure would have shattered into pieces.

• The cosmological balance is maintained due to this attraction amongst the different objects and entities.

From atoms and molecules to human beings with developed consciousness, all entities feel attraction for one another.

He keeps all the finite entities bound to Him by His inscrutable Cosmic Love. All entities drift in the vast divine flow as the minute manifestations of the Supreme Lord.

They are entitled to Cosmic Love by birth.

• That is why attraction is the law of nature.

• Repulsion is negative attraction.

The so-called differences that between human beings in the external world are merely expressions of negative attraction.

For differences to occur, people must enter into some sort of relationship with each other.

Without close proximity, there cannot be any friction.

• A serious difference of opinion today may be changed into friendship tomorrow.

In the past, people who remained engaged in bloody battles over religious issues reunited after the battles were over.

Similarly, on language issues also there were numerous clashes.

• But after some time, the mutual bickerings were forgotten.
• As result of synthesis, a new mixed language emerged.

Thus, instead of reacting to apparent differences, one should seek internal unity.

The various differences which split society must be removed in the interest of collective welfare.

One must look for the common link, the points of affinity, in the multifarious lifestyles and diverse expressions of life.

• The points of affinity have got to be encouraged by all means.
• The differences must be discouraged.

If the various differences such as customs, manners, food, dress, language etc. are given undue importance, the clashes and conflicts will increase.

If those differences are made to unite forcibly, that involves risk.

That is why we will have to adopt a positive approach rather than a negative one.

Thus, our policy is “Aspects of unity should be encouraged. Aspects of disunity should be discouraged.”

If this principle is strictly followed:

• human unity will increase
• human disunity will decrease

No difference lasts long.

So if the aspects of disunity are discouraged, the human society will gradually find a universally acceptable link through mutual association and attraction.

In the interest of social welfare and unity, fissiparous tendencies should never be encouraged.

Whenever differences arise, it would be wise to ignore them.
