You are me, every person you meet is simply a part of you somewhere deep inside facing you in a skin suit.

the matrix makes us unique / individuals (not one) IMO, separated from the rest
breaking free of the matrix (thoughts/the ego) makes us one 
when you turn off thoughts a bit you start to see more clearly than before, that all is one, and the spiritual reality that you might have forgotten for many years
the matrix has all of us for noone is truly able to break free of their thoughts all the time, we have to identify with them once in a while to live, just only think when needed/meditate to control them instead of them controlling you
thoughts/emotions/desires create attachment and ultimately suffering

CosmicJoke said: I dig this passage from Tim Leary's _The Game of Life_
ORDERED VARIETY AND SEQUENTIAL UNITY REPLACE BLAND HINDU "ALL IS ONE" The danger of such pantheistic insights about the unity of nature is that they often freeze thought precisely where it is most illuminating and amusing to enquire further. One Is a good place to start a number system, but an Idiot-lazy place to stop. " All is One" has become such a platitude among the intellectually lethargic that It is necessary, today, to emphasize that the Game of Life involves both sequential unity and plurality, both binding serial coherence and infinite diversity, both eternal Law and eternal Play. Intoning "All is One" adds nothing new to the human information pool and merely demonstrates that the intoner has taken the first and simplest step beyond conditioned consciousness (or else that SHe has learned to parrot a popular transmission from those who have taken the first post-larval step).·
Most excellent.

Yup because those are all fractal possibilities of what I may be/have been/could become if there were different choices made by the many other facets of me, and different environmental possibilities if I were to be there. Everybody has the awful dark decrepit hateful spiteful part of them somewhere inside. Embrace it and accept it, doesn't mean you have to indulge it, doesn't mean you have the choice every time around either, it just is.

Some people feel connected, others don't.
I have a lot of love for my friend but he seems to be in a lower vibration. He is still enveloped in my love and yet I cannot fully reach him.
