"When we awaken, everything changes. Yes, God is “out there” but God is also in you, in me, and in everything, everywhere we look. The sacred and divine are in all of life. We now see with new eyes. We see we are a cell in a body and we naturally desire to look after the entire body. All of the body is interrelated, interconnected and interdependent. We are part of this body and we can call the whole of the body, God or Universe or even our new Self [this is why Jesus said “inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me”].
We continue to look after our own body, our partner and our children but our new Self is much larger than this. Now we look after all of humanity and all of life and we do so in co-creation with God. We remember we can call forth resources and healing through faith in God. God is our partner and we come to see strong desire and faith are never denied in co-creation.
In our professional lives we seek now only to harvest what is necessary for ourselves, our family, our community and our world. All resources are part of the sacred and divine family so we harvest minimally, with great care, and with great gratitude, for that which is being harvested. We seek to nurture all those whom we are connected with. We see this is in our Self interest.
We naturally nurture and share. Nurture and share replaces exploit and harvest.
We can now see how we create a world based on love, compassion and sustainability, can’t we? When we awaken, we naturally transform the world because we look at the world in a whole new way. We know Who We Really Are and we know Who Other People Really Are also.
This is why Humanity’s Team focuses on awakening. We see this is the “first domino”. When we awaken together, world transformation happens naturally."

P.S. Yes Karen, bingo, there is ALWAYS a false teaching for every true teaching. Oneness can certainly be used by the serpentine consciousness to deceive. Oneness is not sameness. Oneness is not about joining some collective ego, like the borg, or communism etc. Oneness is not about giving up your free will or your divine individuality.
Divine Oneness is about the realization that all life is interconnected and therefore the source is accessible directly within you and it is in your best interest to express your divine talents to help raise up the rest of creation rather than to fight it or try and prove yourself better than it by putting it down...
We are all One, but we are unique and beautiful individualization's of the One.
