If you are looking at the human population living on earth you cannot help wondering how everyone can possibly be equal when there are obviously existing such vast differences in fortune, rank, possibilities and abilities between its diverse members. And yet, despite these seemingly contradictory appearances, universal human equality is a fact. However, this equality cannot be detected if you are looking at life with the eyes of the world, that are only able to see superficial appearances and your personal point of view. In order to become aware of its truth you have to view life with the eyes of your heart that are able to glimpse at the Divine structures underlying outward realities. If you are able to see life from this perspective you will recognize that the law of equality concerns the basic conditions each person is born under. Although individual spiritual heritage may vary, everyone has been born of a set of physical parents into a physical body, endowed with emotions and mental faculties. And although personal fates and functions are manifold and at variance with each other in the world, everyone is destined to become a true servant to the Divine cause. Ultimately, we are all here for the same reason - to learn to love unconditionally and to see the Light of God in every moment and part of life.
There is a kind of love which unifies and unites and one that renders us poignantly - at times even painfully - aware of boundaries, limitations and our separateness. The mastership of true loving is to attain the awareness of the first and to henceforth exist in this state even whilst passing through personal experiences of the love that separates.
