What Does "Unity" mean?

​The word "unity" is being discussed a lot lately.

For many, "unity" means getting agreement, and finding like-minded people to reinforce one's beliefs.

For others, "unity" means finding a unified purpose, belief system, worldview.

At Unity Minneapolis, the word "unity" takes on a more spiritual meaning.  "Unity" means seeing the oneness in everyone and everything.  Seeing the connectedness, the sacredness, the love in everyone, in every way.  "The God in me beholds the God in you, Namaste" is a song we often sing.

So, for Unity Minneapolis, a church on a hill, the message is clear.  See the Divinity in the diversity.  See the wonder, magic, and lovability in everything around us.

This is the message of Jesus, and truly the core of  Christianity.  Love God (or Spirit, or any other spiritual life/love force) with all your heart, mind, and soul. And love your neighbor as yourself.  So you love yourself, see your own Divinity as a gift of grace from God or Spirit.

All division, hate, and discrimination is a projection of human beings not seeing their wholeness, Divinity, and lovability.  It produces Empire Consciousness which is based on fear, power, domination, scarcity and addiction.  Oneness Consciousness is the true message of freedom and liberation.  It is an inside job, a spiritual transformation, a rebirth of hope, love and compassion.
