Chapter 5 : How Your Actions Affect Everything Else

An innate extension of unity is the development of worldwide consciousness. You recognize that just as every individual is responsible for sustaining the health of the entire body, you're similarly responsible for the wellness of the whole planet. You can't go along making decisions alone at the personal, loved ones, or communal level. Now you have to think about how your thoughts and actions affect the earth as a whole.

Understanding It All

The mentality of wholeness and how you affect things around you is an amazing responsibility, and a lot of individuals feel overpowered by it at the start. This is perfectly normal.

To take on responsibility for the whole earth may feel like setting a huge weight on your shoulders. How may one-man be responsible for so much? However to refuse such responsibility is to buckle under to an illusion.

You can't prevent the responsibility for what occurs on the planet as you're a piece of it.

If you believe the earth requires saving, you're responsible for saving it. If you believe our leaders have become off track, you're responsible for putting us back on track. If you see issues in the world that aren't being handled right, you're responsible for handling those issues.

Without the experience of unity, you'll likely take issue with me. You can't potentially be responsible for all of that. You're merely one flyspeck individual on a planet of 1000000000000s. You're merely a single person, not the entire system.

But once you embrace the reality that we're all one attached whole, you willingly take on responsibility for everything in your world.
It's no longer conceivable to wince and hide from this awareness.

Wholeness becomes your answer to the question: Why ought I care?
The plus side is that wholeness likewise provides you the force to shoulder that responsibility willingly and without feeling overpowered. Wholeness exposes that you're never alone. You've a great deal of help available.

You don't have to build a huge global operation to remedy each issue on the planet. You simply have to stay aware of how your actions impact the whole and begin making decisions now to line up with the greater good.

The most you are able to expect of yourself is to do your most. And the most you are able to truly do at this time is to totally embrace unity, to serve as a model, and to teach other people to do the same.

The more individuals who embrace unity, the more joined we become, and the better off the whole earth will be.

If you wish to line up with unity, you'll sooner or later have to leave thoughts of detachment behind.
