- Abstract unity is the foundation of Jnana - yoga. This is called Advaitism ("without dualism or dvaitism"). This is the corner - stone of the Vedanta philosophy, the Alpha and the Omega.[Source]
- All reasoning ends only in finding Unity; so we first use analysis, then synthesis.[Source]
- In the heart of things there is Unity still.[Source]
- One fundamental doctrine of Hinduism is that all men are different, there being unity in variety.[Source]
- Perfect unity is reached when man says, "I and my Father are one".[Source]
- Reason leads to the finding of unity in variety.[Source]
- Religion ceases to progress when unity is reached, which is the case with Hinduism.[Source]
- Science is nothing but the finding of unity. As soon as science would reach perfect unity, it would stop from further progress, because it would reach the goal.[Source]
- The end and aim of all science is to find the unity, the One out of which the manifold is being manufactured, that One existing as many.[Source]
- The great lesson is, that unity is behind all. Call it God, Love, Spirit. Allah, Jehovah — it is the same unity that animates all life from the lowest animal to the noblest man.[Source]
- The multiple of phenomena that is seen at every hand is only the infinite variety of unity.[Source]
- The idea of unity and what we call monism — without duality — is the idea in India.[Source]
- The Vedantist declares that unity is the only thing that exists; variety is but phenomenal, ephemeral and apparent. "Look not to variety," says the Vedantist, "go back to unity."[Source]
- ... The whole universe is a tremendous case of unity in variety. There is only one mass of mind. Different [states] of that mind have different names. [They are] different little whirlpools in this ocean of mind. We are universal and individual at the same time. Thus is the play going on.... In reality this unity is never broken. [Matter, mind, spirit are all one.][Source]
- This finding of unity in variety is really what we call knowledge.[Source]
- Through multiplicity and duality, that the ultimate unity is reached.[Source]
- To realise this unity is the end and aim of all meditation, and this is what Yajnavalkya was trying to explain to Maitreyi.[Source]
- Unity in variety is the plan of creation, individuality in universality.[Source]
- Unity in variety is the plan of nature, and the Hindu has recognised it.[Source]
- Unity in variety is the plan of the universe.[Source]
- Unity is before creation, diversity is creation. Now if this diversity stops, creation will be destroyed.[Source]
- Unity is knowledge, diversity is ignorance.[Source]
- Unity is self-evolving, out of which everything comes.[Source]
- Unity is the object of religion. The multiple of phenomena that is seen at every hand is only the infinite variety of unity.[Source]
- Variety in unity is necessary to keep man as man.[Source]
- When a perfect unity is reached, that science has nothing more of principles to tell us.[Source]
