Oneness , what oneness ?
Some people have romantic idealistic concepts that society can live as one .
In spiritual terms, maybe , when by cultivating spiritual consciousness, one is able to see that consciousness particals are in each body , the very substance of life , and in that sense all equally loved and reciprocated to by God .
But materially speaking , individuals have always expressed differently and lived differently , both individually and in communial ways, expressing their unique national culture and ways of life, which can be seen to be one and different.
In the vedas 5th Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam, the activities of King Prtu give the description of the natural creation of boundaries, such as oceans , rivers, and mountain ranges. Although harmony can be achieved within mankind it must be understood as being based on their differences , which sometimes have complex social and karmic complexity , nevertheless , all societies should be respected and understood in mature and intelligent ways .
The concept of harmony in discord is only realised in the minds of those who are learned who are aware of the consciousness of Divinity within their hearts and in the hearts of all living beings. They who have evolved love for Divinity and as such , all beings , seeing that everything and everyone is connected to God . Knowledge means knowing all are His expansions , such divine inspiration creates the inconceivable oneness and difference vision in our relationship with Him and all beings .
The vipras , Brahminical men, and Suddha Bhaktas know this very well and realise it . By their association , we can also know and realise this truth .
It is never found in any political leaders , who we could safely say are mostly lacking in real wisdom, and are sometimes fools and rascals , so they must always take direction from the real intelligensia as described above .
The original Varna Ashram system is a wonderful sharing and educational resource for all , it is meant to instigate social mobility and give everyone the chance of good association and beneficial learning .
That is part of the remit of ISKCON, to introduce this reality to people in general
