“The unity of existence is the foundation of all ethical codes. Properly understood, it widens the bounds of charity beyond humanity to include the animal world as well. Self-love is the mainspring of man‘s action and the raison d'être of his love for others. We learn from Non-dualistic Vedanta that the true Self of man is the Self of all beings. Therefore, self-love finds its expression and fulfilment in love for all. – Swami Nikhilananda” NondualityVedantaUniversal LoveThe True SelfThe Unity Of Existence Book:Self-Knowledge: Atmabodha Source: Self-Knowledge: Atmabodha
