May peace and peace and peace be everywhere.’ Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad V.1.1 ’What indeed is here, is there; what is there is here likewise. He who sees as though there is difference here, goes from death to death. This is to be attained through the mind indeed. There is no diversity here whatsoever.
