Good question. They say that education is a process of telling smaller and smaller lies.

For example, we can start out by saying that "we are all one" by saying that we are connected. We are like individual leaves on a tree.

This is a valid way of looking at things, but this presumes the validity of space, as if you can be over here and I can be over there. It's a great start.

Then you can look at things from a holographic perspective, saying that everything exists in the same location, but when you change the angle you view the hologram at, you see a different version of the hologram. Thus everything is literally here and now. The duality of here and there or you and me is nothing more than a shift in consciousness, a change in perspective.

We can talk about God as being the Father or the Mother, but the Divine is beyond human gender. Perhaps referencing Source would be a more accurate word when talking about "that which gives rise to" or the Unmanifest.

Who knows where we'll be in 1000 years. Hopefully in direct Unity with the Truth of who we are. In fact, how 'bout now!?
