00:00:06: Welcome.
00:00:07: I'm glad you're here!
00:00:09: Today, i want to explain the idea of unity a little more closely.
00:00:14: So let's start with the question What is Unity?
00:00:18: And i want say up front what follows as just one many ways to explain it because As You'll see Unity can't really be captured in single sentence or single thought.
00:00:31: Unity Is First Of All A Way Of Life And the purpose of this way of life is, first to gain knowledge of the unity of world.
00:00:40: Of universe and second if you want too pass that knowledge on.
00:00:47: not just pass it on but actually apply as what I call a unity companion.
00:00:53: What means exactly will get two?
00:00:56: in practice It mean using this knowledge help other people rediscover the unity The unity between us as human beings, Between humans and animals.
00:01:09: Between humans in nature And ultimately the great Unity –The one without borders Without separation Because that's how reality actually is.
00:01:20: Unity connects to science.
00:01:23: You'll notice That the line between unity & Science basically disappears.
00:01:27: And it connects to spirituality too.
00:01:30: Though not a spirituality that ignores facts Unity brings together a spirituality that already includes the scientific view.
00:01:40: Actually, it's not that unity connects to spirituality.
00:01:44: everything is already connected.
00:01:46: That's the whole point To keep discovering that connectedness more and more deeply.
00:01:52: Why does this matter?
00:01:54: If we keep going as we are As society We'll probably still be here in ten thousand years But will have wars.
00:02:03: Children will still be dying in
00:02:05: wars,
00:02:06: growing up in
00:02:06: wars.
00:02:08: People will still die of hunger poverty pollution climate change.
00:02:14: We can't undo that overnight but the more rational among us are already working on solutions and I do think humanity will eventually bring The Climate back towards something like what it was a hundred years ago.
00:02:27: Maybe not this century maybe next.
00:02:30: That's just my hope.
00:02:32: And then there are the small wars between co-workers, between neighbours within families.
00:02:39: Unity is meant to bring peace on that scale too so as people increasingly recognise how connected we are both The big wars and Small ones start to end.
00:02:51: There's simply more love and warmth in world.
00:02:55: What IS reality really like?
00:03:00: Quantum physics shows us this.
00:03:03: It's not that there are two realities, one separate and one unified.
00:03:08: There is only One Reality, One World, One Universe.
00:03:12: We perceive separation only because of our senses Because we have a human body But That Separation exists Only in the mind.
00:03:22: Until now Unity has existed In one place A building made up of different rooms where people could experience this unity for themselves.
00:03:32: But I say, let's not limit unity to a room or a building.
00:03:37: Let's integrate it everywhere because its way-of life and the way of Life belongs everywhere.
00:03:44: This is about showing People The universal connection we're all part Of Because that knowledge makes people happier.
00:03:52: Suffering i always Say is the sum of our dissatisfaction.
00:03:57: And it comes from the mistaken belief that we're separate from other people, The more someone recognises unity on an individual level... ...the more they live in and less dissatisfactorion.. ..the more happiness there are in their life Because we really all connected.
00:04:15: Even some one living a remote island still needs this understanding because we influence eachother constantly.
00:04:22: We're dependent even on people we've never seen and never will, who live thousands of miles away.
00:04:29: So if you are thinking oh leg I love this how do i get involved?
00:04:34: My answer is think about it see what comes to you And If nothing comes to mind yet just stay with me here because over time... ...I want to share everything we discovered together With everyone whose part of this Say You work at a hotel and wonder How To bring more unity into It.
00:04:52: There are no limits to how.
00:04:55: A few days ago, I walked past a hotel and heard live music coming from inside... ...a woman singing beautiful Music but a wall separated the guests From everyone outside who might have loved To listen too If i were a guest there?
00:05:11: I'd tell The management why not open things up at least for the music?
00:05:15: you'd even benefit.
00:05:16: people drawn in from Outside would probably get thirsty And buy a drink.
00:05:22: Though that's not the point of unity, making a profit from it.
00:05:26: We'll get to how Unity companions like us can actually earn a living from this.
00:05:30: later I remember visiting a museum once and overhearing a visitor tell The Receptionist That the free water the Museum offers its guests could just as easily be offered To the public.
00:05:43: A simple sign outside Thirsty?
00:05:47: Come in!
00:05:48: we have fresh Water for you.
00:05:50: When i lived In Berlin I noticed people would put books they no longer needed out on the street for others to take.
00:06:22: want to be part of it as unity companions sharing this connectedness with others through knowledge and wherever possible, through action.
00:06:33: And if you feel that pull let's found the Unity Association together or The Unity Institution, The Unity Foundation whatever form It takes With the goal That people can sustain their lives quite literally receive Their livelihood by bringing unity into the world.
00:06:55: Wouldn't that be wonderful?
00:06:57: And here's something worth remembering, The working-world is changing radically because of AI.
00:07:03: It looks like we're heading towards some form universal basic income since so many jobs are being handed over to machines.
00:07:12: but people still want do something meaningful with their time and this where unity can play a real role.
00:07:21: if you feel pull.
00:07:24: And you haven't yet found something truly meaningful to do professionally, we can build this foundation together or simply wait until it exists and reach out
00:07:35: then.".
00:07:36: You don't have to wait though!
00:07:49: It's the one worth living because it is right.
00:07:56: There a Buddhist teacher, Mathurika who I bring up now and then He once said in essence that as long we haven't realized ourselves We perceive reality in distorted way.
00:08:10: That exactly what happening with most people today?
00:08:14: They live according to world view built on separation And damages them and everyone around them enormously.
00:08:22: I'd go so far as to say this worldview is behind almost every kind of harm.
00:08:27: It's what has driven climate change, wars hunger poverty envy hatred jealousy greed stress depression loneliness even physical illness.
00:08:40: All it traces back the false idea that world made up countless separate disconnected beings and things And all can be healed on both a societal and personal level as more people with each other's help, because it can't happen alone.
00:08:59: Recognize the unity that is already there.
00:09:03: The dictionary defines individual has something self-contained an independently existing entity.
00:09:11: And thats true.
00:09:13: we are individuals But it's a distorted view of the world.
00:09:16: to think our identity is limited to the body we see in the mirror each morning.
00:09:22: In reality, our individuality extends to the whole cosmos—to everything and everyone it contains.
00:09:30: So this isn't about inventing unity.
00:09:33: It's about living it And drawing more people into that recognition Until eventually all humanity Is part.
00:10:09: Thank you for being here.
00:10:11: Welcome!
00:10:11: Today I would like to explain the idea of Unity a little bit more closely.
00:10:19: First, we want to ask ourselves what is Unity?
00:10:24: And now only one of many explanations follows this explanation because if you stay on it will be seen that you can't really put Unity into a sentence in your mind.
00:10:41: Unity is, first of all a world view.
00:10:46: Much more is unity a way to live and the purpose of this way of life is to first know yourself about this unity in order for the universe's world to adapt.
00:11:02: and secondly if you want with help from these knowledge one can then take the next step.
00:11:09: This knowledge continues.
00:11:10: And not only continue, but also use this knowledge as a unity companion which is still there.
00:11:20: That means specifically that you use the knowledge of the way in which other people help to discover the unity of life again.
00:11:32: And the unity of life is, of course, also the unity between us humans and each other.
00:11:41: The unity between human beings and animals and the unity among people and nature... ...and ultimately the great unity!
00:11:52: The unity in which there are no limits or separation.
00:11:57: Because that's how reality is.
00:12:02: Unity refers to science.
00:12:06: Unity and science, as you can see in the future will not be able to separate at all.
00:12:13: The limits are going to disappear but also unity and spirituality.
00:12:20: Of course we do not want to go into a spirituality that is not based on facts.
00:12:29: That means unity will connect with spirituality which includes scientific aspects too.
00:12:37: But what do I say?
00:12:39: Of course Unity will not only connect with spirituality, but everything is already connected.
00:12:48: And that's the superordinated goal of Unity!
00:12:52: That we always continue to discover this connection between all and go deeper into this connection.
00:12:59: Why does it matter?
00:13:04: If we as a society continue to do what it has done so far, then there can probably be no question that in ten thousand years we are still here.
00:13:18: But also in ten thousands of years we will experience wars.
00:13:24: In ten thousands more years children will come through wars and grow up into wars, people die from hunger, poverty, pollution... On the climate change, we can't stop this.
00:13:38: But you are already there or better said people who are reasonable know that there is a climate change.
00:13:49: They are happy to be able to develop objects and find solutions And also use these solutions which means The climate change is here And I think the humanity is already at it, to turn solutions towards climate change so that the climate may not normalize again in this century but later on next century.
00:14:09: Each and every one of these climates existed about a hundred years ago in the world.
00:14:16: But that's future music – those are my hopes!
00:14:20: Maybe things will happen sooner?
00:14:23: Who knows… maybe they'll also happen later... But there are also, if we talk about wars, the small wars so to speak.
00:14:34: The wars between working colleagues or colleagues.
00:14:37: The neighboring wars and family wars And Unity is there in order to create peace.
00:14:46: In order for great peace With the time to bring into this world,
00:14:51: i.e.,
00:14:51: the great wars end because people know more and more of their connections but also until the small wars end together in the family, in the neighborhood so that with time much more love and tenderness comes into the world Because we humans as a society live more after reality.
00:15:14: how it really is How is reality really?
00:15:19: There are no separations in the reality as it actually is.
00:15:23: That's exactly what science shows us, that we can for example or above all discover and recognize a lot more through quantum physics!
00:15:33: It isn't like.
00:15:34: there aren't two realities one where there is a separation And another one which has no separation.
00:15:47: So is it not.
00:15:48: There's only one reality, just a world and an universe.
00:15:52: We take the separation because our body can't do that.
00:15:57: Through the senses!
00:15:59: We have a human body in which the feeling of separation is incomprehensible.
00:16:07: But separation ultimately consists solely on the mind.
00:16:10: And naturally I will go deeper into this Fahre ich mit der Erklärung, was Unity ist fort.
00:16:18: Bisher war die Idee von Unity lediglich auf einen Raum bezogen.
00:16:25: Unity gab es bisher ledigliche in einem Gebäude.
00:16:30: Das ausbeschriebenen Räumen steht indem man die Einheit selbst erfahren und erleben kann... ...und sich über diese Einheit wie sie wirkt warum sie da ist informieren kann so that ultimately you, for yourself maybe not at the beginning of all the units but still a part of the unit is known for itself.
00:16:54: But now I say let us Unity not limit ourselves to one room or building.
00:17:00: Let us Unity integrate everywhere because Unity can be integrated anywhere Because Unity is once again a way of life And in this way of life it is about showing to the fellow human beings our own connection, or what does that mean?
00:17:21: The universal connection.
00:17:26: So by this knowledge and through this awareness they will naturally also become happier.
00:17:33: I always say again – the origin of suffering!
00:17:37: What is suffering?
00:17:39: Suffering is the sum of our unhappiness.
00:17:41: It comes from their belief that we are separated by other people.
00:17:44: That is why there is a lot of suffering on individual levels, accordingly more and more on the individual level.
00:17:58: The unity for oneself is recognized.
00:18:02: as you live like this unit and have little unhappiness in life means that you realize more happiness because we are all connected to each other.
00:18:17: And if someone doesn't live on a lonely island, you need these insights around unity.
00:18:25: just as we influence everything together!
00:18:28: We influence and therefore connect with one another indifferently.
00:18:35: What else does it mean?
00:18:35: It means that we have been connected.
00:18:37: And often we don't even notice it.
00:18:41: It means
00:18:42: that
00:18:43: we are dependent on each other, and in a certain way because all of us are connected with one another so there is no separation, we are even dependent upon people whom you have never seen or who will not be able to see but live thousands of kilometers away from each other.
00:19:04: When you say now hey Oleg I think this is great how can i participate?
00:19:09: Then let me tell Think about it, let something fall into you and if nothing falls in here then just stay on.
00:19:19: Because with time I want to give you everything that comes into your mind.
00:19:25: Of course by the help of all of us from everyone who participates actively this will be shared.
00:19:33: Suppose you work at a hotel And ask yourself how can i bring Unity inside?
00:19:39: There are no limits!
00:19:41: I went to a hotel for some days and heard live music from the hotel.
00:19:53: I couldn't see the band, it was a woman who sang, there were pleasant songs for my ears beautiful music something that i like to hear And I would have liked to be there.
00:20:06: If not for all too long, but for fifteen minutes.
00:20:11: my heart would really be very happy!
00:20:13: But one sound had separated this group and the hotel guests from everyone else.
00:20:21: That's why you can sit anywhere.
00:20:25: And if i were a hotel guest , for example, I'd say the management people Why don't you at least open the limits for live music?
00:20:35: Because that's what you would even have advantages.
00:20:38: If people from outside
00:20:39: would
00:20:40: come to your hotel, then they'd definitely be scared!
00:20:45: But it doesn' t matter about Unity... ...because of hitting a profit on their own.
00:20:54: But we will still get there.
00:20:57: There are already ideas.
00:20:59: like us.
00:20:59: as self-employed I was able to earn money as a member of the university.
00:21:04: Everything will be revealed in detail later on.
00:21:09: One day, when I went there for a visit at a museum... ...I received an appointment and from that meeting I wanted to briefly tell you about it!
00:21:20: And each person who visited this museum probably told me... ...that they would like to know what this museum is all about?
00:21:32: When I was living in Berlin, many people told me The things they don't need anymore, like books for example, simply put outside in front of the door so that others could take these books.
00:22:05: And I really took a few books from those six years which I spent in Berlin and took them with me.
00:22:12: Most of this book has really enriched my life much more than anything else!
00:22:17: That wouldn't be there if someone had thought differently about it.
00:22:24: Just give away your book.
00:22:25: Ich werde demnach nie ein Patent auf Unity anmelden.
00:22:30: Und mein Ziel ist das, wenn ich nicht mehr hier bin, dass Unity weiter besteht als lebensweise, als aktive Lebensweise!
00:22:40: Das Unity wächst und gedeiht, daß immer mehr Menschen sagen, ich habe da richtig Lust drauf.
00:22:46: Dass du sagst, ich hab da richtig lust drauf, hier mitzumachen as Unity-Begleiterin diese Verbundenheit näher zu bringen.
00:22:57: Einerseits durchwissen und andererseits, wenn es dir möglich ist – und wenn du möchtest durchtaten!
00:23:04: Und wenn Du Lust hast gründen wir zusammen den Verein Unity.
00:23:09: Von mir aus darf es aber auch die Institution Unity sein oder die Stiftung
00:23:14: Unity.".
00:23:15: They also have the goal to simply get their living conditions through it, and I say that they do not deserve to be seen by the world.
00:23:28: That would be wonderful or?
00:23:30: We can call this together into life!
00:23:33: Because we must stick to one thing, we should stick to it – the working-world changes radically, especially through artificial intelligence And it seems that we as a society are moving on to the essential basic income.
00:23:52: Also, extremely many jobs will be handed over by the AI.
00:23:56: But humans want something meaningful with their time and here Unity can also play a big role.
00:24:05: if you tell him or her I'm really looking forward to this, and if you also feel the feeling that something really meaningful hasn't been found yet, then together we can call the Unities Foundation.
00:24:21: You just wait until this foundation or this association which has become a reality and get in touch with us... ...and say it's time for me to spread my idea?
00:24:35: I really want to pack the world into a better place, in which other people show me how they are connected with each other and what everything is like.
00:24:47: If that's the case then you're welcome.
00:24:50: And first of all we should just do it together as unities.
00:24:55: Let us think about this whole thing further – maybe already!
00:25:03: Direct action!
00:25:04: We don't have to wait, you do not need to wait.
00:25:07: You can start now and still start today and make a contribution.
00:25:12: Not for Unity but for society because Unity is no company or concept.
00:25:19: it's a way of life And it isn´t just any other way of living.
00:25:23: It is the way that is worth living Because it really is The buddhist monk Mathurika, if you've heard of him or read it I'll tell his name back and forth.
00:25:40: He once said in an interview that we do not perceive reality as being distorted.
00:25:50: This is exactly what happens to most people these days.
00:25:54: They perceive the reality as distorted meaning they live according to a separate way Schaden sich aber dadurch enorm, ungleichzeitig den anderen.
00:26:06: Und eben diese Lebensweise verursacht ja den allergrößten Schaden!
00:26:11: Vielleicht sogar jeden Schaden?
00:26:12: Ja ich würde sagen, diese Lebensweisen verursachten JEDEN schaden... denn diese Lebensweise hat ihr auch den Klimawandel verursachen.
00:26:21: Kriege, Hunger, Armut, Neid, Missgunst, Hass, Eifersucht, Gier, Stress, Depressionen Loneliness and even physical illnesses usually arise from a false world view.
00:26:38: This approach to the idea that the world consists of countless different living beings and things which are not connected with each other, all this will be carried out both on a social level as well as personally.
00:26:54: when more people, with their help because otherwise it cannot function, the already existing unit can be recognized.
00:27:05: In the Wörtherbuch says that this word individum in itself means an entity.
00:27:11: It is about a living being which means an independent existing being and that's true!
00:27:22: We are all individuals i.e.
00:27:25: entities.
00:27:26: But the world will be distorted if one thinks that our own entity is limited only to this body, which we see every morning in the mirror.
00:27:36: In fact it is our individuality on the Cosmos limited to what all things and living beings contain.
00:27:46: So there's no reason for us to find unity but rather to live.
00:27:53: and to immer more people in this vision or knowledge, so that ultimately all humanity is involved.
