Mystical Oneness

The above analyses prompt me to an intuition of Oneness: Our "Self", our identity, is partly based on self-determination (building on truths and principles of the reason) and partly on heteronomy (building on error and usurpation). Therefore the self-determined share of the identity is independent of space and time and thus universal, whereas the heteronomy-based share is transitory. The self-determined share of our "Self" finds its self in a "you" with similar identity independently of space and time. (28)   Finding myself in a "you" but also becoming one with nature means I am imperishable. By recognizing and respecting the laws of nature and their interaction I also absorb imperishable principles. (29)   This finding of oneself is a question of degree, as with free will and consciousness.

Nature and all living organisms in our world have produced us human beings and made human life possible; therefore we should respect our environment. It is a part of our selves.
