A similar concept is the one found in the Vedas, Vasudhaiva Kudumbakam - One World One Family. Stephen KNapp explains this concept wonderfully.

The Whole World is One Family

From the article:

Quote:
the Vedic system means a way of life that aims at the elevation of everyone in society to a higher level of consciousness
Quote:
We are birds of the same nest. Wearing different skins, speaking different languages, believing in different religions, and belonging to different cultures – yet we share the same home, our earth. Born on the same planet, covered by the same skies, gazing at the same stars, breathing the same air, we must learn to progress happily together or miserably perish together. For humans can live individually but can survive only collectively.
