Orchestra - teaches us how to find harmony with each other despite our differences

05/29/2011

We are all individual beings, each with our own life. But we are not alone; we are part of a whole, and the issue we face is how to reconcile the demands of our individual life with those of collective life. Each individual is special. Cosmic Intelligence created such a diversity of creatures, and we must not try to put them all on one level and make them all the same. Everyone has the right to express their differences, their originality, provided they are in tune with the whole, as in an orchestra. What a difference there is in shape, material and sound between the violin, cello, piano, oboe, flute, harp, trumpet, cymbals and bass drum! But out of this diversity is born a perfect harmony.
