One Becomes The Many Quotes

“The only truth, is infinity. The flower, the one sacred breath and the beauty- all are one. We awaken, we are the one. We see our true divinity. Oh, sacred one, we truly are one.

Take the sacred step. Breathe the infinite scent. Return to who you are, and awaken in this state.”
― Ulonda Faye, Sutras of the Heart: Spiritual Poetry to Nourish the Soul

“Individuality involves pain. Tear ONE sheet of paper into sections and you will hear the sound of ripping. Each time you tear a piece, the paper lets out a cry. This is the pain of separation, the necessary, but unpleasant, phase of the Ultimate Reality knowing Itself. In other words, the One becomes the Many. This is the separation for the chance of union.”
― Laurence Galian, The Sun at Midnight: The Revealed Mysteries of the Ahlul Bayt Sufis
