Man is a social being. Without interrelation with society, he cannot realize his oneness with the universe or suppresses egotism.

This profound principle, this ineluctable principle has been discovered over and over again by mystics and social workers and so forth. We look at ourselves as bodies and therefore think that we are separate, but that is only to look at the very lowest form, lowest level, so to speak, of our reality.
And by constantly focusing on it, we simply drive ourselves into frustration and error. So, the more we can elevate our consciousness, the more we become aware of our interrelatedness, the more successful will be our life individually and socially.
