The human mind can appreciate the One
only by seeing it first in the Many.

"There are two sides to this tale. On the one hand the
many unite to become the Oneness, and on the other
hand the Oneness divides to become the many.
Things continually shift between being united
by love and divided by strife."
(Empedocles) |

"When I was a child, I spake as a child,
I understood as a child, I thought as a child:
but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
For now we see through a glass, darkly;
but then face to face: now I know in part;
but then shall I know even as also I am known."
(Paul, 1 Corinthians 13.11) |

"When you make the two into the one,
when you make the inner like the outer
and the outer like the inner,
and the upper like the lower,
when you make male and female into a single one,
so that the male will not be male
and the female will not be female,
when you make eyes replacing an eye,
a hand replacing a hand,
a foot replacing a foot,
and an image replacing an image,
then you will enter the kingdom."
(Jesus: The Gospel of Thomas) |
