Whatever is in you is in me.

“Whatever is you is in me, We are not different from one another”. This statement looks like the talk of two lovers. However, love is not just a thing between two lovers. Every connection in the world is about love. Be it the Sun helping Earth to revolve or Earth supporting beings with the natural resources.

As Kabir has said (“पोथी पढ़ पढ़ जग मुआ, पंडित भया न कोए | ढाई अक्षर प्रेम का, पढ़े सो पंडित होए ||”) This means, While Reading books everyone died, no one became any wise, One who read the words of love, only became wise. This is the perfect thing for any life-related philosophy. Though this applies to everything including Science. Have you ever wondered how there is a connection between two different atoms, how there is a relation between different animals, how there is a relation between different planets and stars? Everything has some connection between different things. Something sort of the process that creates the “Butterfly Effect”. Here, the role of one small object can create a large impact. For example, an atom bomb can destroy cities in a fragment of seconds.

There is something in human beings that is not letting us realize this simplest of principles. We have nothing to take or nothing to give except some laws of nature acting on us. Yet we tend to use our minds toward destructive things. Our mind needs to evolve in such a way that it understands this basic principle. “Whatever is you are in me, We are not different from one another”. “Tatvam Asi”. Let’s understand this and avoid violence as much as possible. This is only the major thing that hampers the evolution of the mind. Violence is the last of the last option, not the first.
