Beyond Right and Wrong: Returning to Oneness in a Divided World

If we were born into a different country, culture, or creed, we would likely hold a different set of beliefs than the ones we carry now. Not because we’re wrong now—or right then—but because belief is shaped by experience.

This truth can be humbling. It invites us to pause and reflect: What if the views we hold so tightly were not fixed truths, but simply conditioned truths—ones shaped by our upbringing, our environment, and the stories we’ve been told?

The world often encourages us to choose sides, to label things as right or wrong, us versus them. But when we let the ego lead—allowing it to elevate our views above others—we lose something vital: our shared humanity. This self-righteousness has led to centuries of war, separation, and suffering.

Yet every soul on this Earth is here for a reason. Every person you meet is playing a role in a story far greater than what we see from our own narrow lens.

So how do we begin to untangle ourselves from judgment, division, and illusion?

We start by observing.

By witnessing ourselves—our thoughts, our assumptions, our impulses to react—we create space. Space to ask: Where is this coming from? Is this thought truly mine? What might I not be seeing?

We practice detachment, not in apathy, but in awareness.We accept others, not because we agree with them, but because we recognize that their beliefs are as deeply rooted and real to them as ours are to us.

And we remember: From their point of view, you may be the one who’s wrong. And they, the one who’s right. Both are illusions.

In truth, we are all an embodiment of the Divine—of Source, of Spirit, of God, if you may. Which means we are all One.

We are brothers and sisters, walking through this moment in time, wrapped in the skin of different stories, different names, different faiths—but at our core, we are made of the same light.

Let’s meet each other there.
