If thine eye be single

[Crown]

"The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light."



What does this phrase mean? I guess it has many different meanings in several different books, naratives and explanations.


I, personally, have come to a conclusion of what this phrase could actually mean.


It is about "Unity over seperation". If you stop looking at things as dual-sided your body will be full of light. The light body resembles health, hapiness, love, wisdom, and manily enlightenment.


A conflict between two countries does not have two sides. It has one side, and this side is infinite. This also applies to any conflict between any type of consciousness on our planet, be it a single person or the whole world.

This statement basically speaks against dualism. There is no "Good vs Evil". there is good and there is evil and they are both part of the same thing and this thing is infinite therefore it has infinite possibilities and ways of manifestations or projections.


It also applies to our relationships between each other. When a married couple is not getting along, some poeple would blame the husband and some people would blame the wife. It is neither's fault as much as it is both of them who are in fault here. There is a problem in the relationship between them and not just in one of them.


The two sides of a coin eventually form one thing, which is the coin.



No matter how much we seperate different aspects in our existance, it will all be part of the same infinite thing eventually. And this infinite is the consciousness, the "know", the creator.



So basically, Jesus was trying to send a message of love and understanding and i am not sure that alot of us actually understood it.
