UNITY

Many are the ways of understanding a person or situation but only the Lord knows the truth. This is why it takes many minds for a proposal to work. Just like the blind men and the elephant it is the different parts that make the whole. So also when you work as a team, you see different parts and the solution is in bringing the whole together. It is the process of combining the parts that results in wholesome living. No part on its own is sufficient to achieve the task. No one is better then the other. The small toe is as important as the big toe. This is the way the body operates as a whole. It is because man wants to operate on his own that results in strive. Competition is good but many times it is at the expense of the some other part. When there are winners and losers then the body competes with each other part. It is when you keep the whole in mind that you are able to see the vital role of all the parts. When there is a split then this is at the expense of the whole. Any organisation that does not think of the whole will not do as well as one which operates as a whole. Unity is vital for survival. This is why many have to give up their small ambitions for the sake of the whole. If any one part decides to go on its own it will separate and come apart from the whole. Many organisations break up because of this. In the body it is important to keep the peace for the sake of unity. Unity in the Godhead should reflect in the unity of the body. If the head is divided then the body will crumble.
