My question is:

What is it about human self aware subjective selves (which is a necessary condition of sentient existance) that has led us to create these negative connotations of seperateness.

We await your reply Michael.

Basically because we are tricked and misinformed by our senses,thereby thinking that we are apart and seperate from our kin.It is only when we go
within that we find and make the connections,prior to that man fools himself
that he can do unkind and nasty things to his brother-and get away-scot free!

When we know the truth of the matter,we know also that we cannot harm
our brother without first harming ourselves!(plus of course we and brother are
one of the same?)
