We are all One (meaning all beings). And that One is God.
I've heard this many times, from many sources.

And it is true. I sense that.

But I trust my own experience above all things,
and my experience says I am an Individual and
that Individuality is sacred.

So now I am thinking that both are true.

The Self has no seperations or boundaries.

Is it not true that any particular town is
an individual town and yet is also a part
of the county it occupies? And the state
and then the nation?

I think you are right and this what some don't understand.
Jesus is quoted as saying "in the world but not of it"
In the world, experiencing it, and yet know it's not all there is. On
some level we are all in this together.
"we are the world".

Yes, It's not so much that we are all the same being, but that we are
_part_ of the same being.

'We are the world'? Certainly what we experience is our own creation
and is our self, so that must be true.

Not that my friend Bill is me. What I _perceive_ of him with
my physical senses is my creation.

I think that's right.

If there were no people (minds) to perceive and create (in this way) the
world, there wouldn't be one. It's whatever mass consciousness is joining in
believing and seeing at the time.
Just how I believe it. Because it makes sense. More than any other
explanation I've heard.
Even Shakespheare said "Nothing is, but thinking makes it so".

Right, and what he perceives of you is his.
Not that I am absoultely right (LOL) But that's what I meant.

However, humans are not the only beings with minds.

I agree 100% with you. It is said that seperateness is an illusion.
Your analogy would be a darn good way of explaining that concept.

We could add that any given Amish colony, or whatever, is quite
convinced of it's seperateness. It's quite obvious to outsiders that
this is not the case. While belonging to that colony, however,
seperateness is a given fact - and they will fight to the death in
order to protect it.

Sort of the idea of "rise above it"? Like groups might believe they are
separate from each other, but get high enough up (in theory) and everything
blends together.
