DAY 67
Seeing the Self in All, and All as Equal
기원전 2세기경 편찬(서사시 전승)
ORIGINAL
sarva-bhūta-stham ātmānaṁ sarvatra sama-darśanaḥ
📜 THE VERSE
The steadied one sees the same self in all beings, and all beings within the self, beholding one and the same everywhere.
❓ TODAY'S QUESTION
Am I used to dividing people into self and other, or can I see the sameness flowing beneath?
📝Reflection
In this verse I learn the widest eye. Beneath the border that divides self from other flow the same breath, the same pain, the same longing. One who can see that oneness finds it hard to hate carelessly, and feels another's pain as one's own. Here is the state of seeing all things as one body. When I push someone away as utterly different from me, I recall that within them too live the same fears and longings as mine, and reconnect.

When you meet someone hard to understand today, think once, 'they too must carry fears like mine.'
