That was probably one of the deepest readings I've read in a long while. What makes the ideas confusing I believe is when writings start to contain one word used multiple times, but in different context, humans start to get a little dizzy with the concept, as occurred with the writing's use of the word "jewel", however the point was accentuated, I believe.
The writing's talk about the fact that all things are one. If that was the world-view that everyone took, imagine the type of world there would be, instead of this one. Although, with all countries becoming increasingly connected through the economy and various other things, we may be closer to all things literally becoming one than we ever have before.
But back to the writing. It's a deeply profound thought that everything is one, and every action one commits to doing is something that affects everything. After all, if 'one' is 'everything' than even though it's a single entity it affects the whole. Which I thought was a deeply almost comforting thought. Because it means that no matter what the 'one' is never alone. It's implicitly surrounded by 'everything', so I don't believe that people should take for granted the gifts of, not just being surrounded by 'everything, but also the gift of being alone. That although we are part of a whole, we still get time apart.
