The philosophic outlook rises above all sectarian controversy. It finds its own position not only by appreciating and synthesizing what is solidly based in the rival sects but also by capping them all with the keystone of nonduality.

The fallacy with the phrase 'us verses them' is there is no them.

If all become one, each becomes none, but if one is all, then each becomes everything.

Non-duality is accepting the whole as yourself.

If we are nothing, there is nothing at all to serve as a barrier to our boundless expression of love. Being nothing in this way, we are also, inevitably, everything. 'Everything' does not mean self-aggrandizement, but a decisive recognition of interconnection; we are not separate. Both the clear, open space of 'nothing' and the interconnected mess of 'everything' awakens us to our true nature.

The runner is coming to know, or will know if he runs enough...that the universe is the smallest divisible unit.
