One drop of the sea cannot claim to come from one river,
and another drop of the sea from another river;
the sea is a single consistent whole.
In the same way all beings are one;
there is no being that does not come from the soul,
and is not part of the soul.
and another drop of the sea from another river;
the sea is a single consistent whole.
In the same way all beings are one;
there is no being that does not come from the soul,
and is not part of the soul.
-Chandogya Upanishad
