… this sameness, this unity, this perfection -- as we may
call it -- is not to be made, it already exists, and is here.
We have only to
recognise it, to understand it.
Whether we know it or not, whether we can
express it in clear language or not, whether this perception assumes the force
and clearness of a sense-perception or not, it is there.
For we are bound by
the logical necessity of our minds to confess that it is there, else, the
perception of the finite would not be. …
… Knowledge would be impossible without that unity. Without
the idea of sameness there would be neither perception nor knowledge. So both
run side by side.
- Swami Vivekananda, Talk in London
