Oneness is an interesting concept that we can never fully know until we experience it for ourselves. Can we ever fully experience oneness, or are we infinitely always separated away from being able to do so?
How can we experience this oneness, and what exactly is it? Does infinity exist as a part of oneness, or is infinity something else again?
My article will discuss how we as a created separation, being largely isolated initially away from the oneness can relate to a concept of the infinite, and how the infinite itself can never exist to the oneness of itself, or ever to God of himself.
It is only God's creation that can picture the infinite because part of itself is being lost to the overall oneness for now. When we return to oneness, the infinite too will lose all further meaning to us then as well, and we will live in the same way as does God from only the infinite oneness of love.
A paradox to be sure, and which I will endeavour to explain further here.
Isolation is born from oneness to enable oneness to live in itself instead of from itself, in an infinite but countably infinite number of ways. This means creation can extend itself in infinite ways, but God in his oneness is able to still count and know each single one of these ways individually. This then is not a true definition of infinity.
We cannot ever know infinity, only God can. Only oneness can ever fully know its own self. As a part of oneness we can know our own part within oneness and act for the whole, but the bigger infinite picture of this oneness can only ever be seen from the oneness of God himself.
Oneness lives from itself always, but to live in itself it requires an isolated part of itself to vent the feelings that are separated out from love through a funnel of creation.
This serves initially to disperse or scatter its elements to infinite proportions in such a way that this dispersion then can see why it is ultimately only still remaining a part of oneness, and so to then know its own function within oneness as oneness, but in a way that can then add to oneness rather than just remaining a part of oneness.
Oneness is oneness and its parts show itself to itself in such a way that oneness becomes infinite, and the infinite then remains wholly infinite as well. The oneness expands itself infinitely even as the infinite realises its own oneness. In this way both aims are satisfied from one ending meeting the other, and still only just seeing itself.
