# Interconnectedness > Interconnectedness in Bashar's cosmology means every being forms an essential thread affecting creation's wider fabric while each individual is a unique perspective of all that is and strengthening individuality serves oneness. - Canonical: https://sassani.app/topic/interconnectedness # Interconnectedness In Bashar's cosmology, interconnectedness is not a sentimental metaphor but a structural feature of existence. Everything you do has impact within the entirety of creation, because you and all beings are made of the same substance of the infinite, and no one of you can be removed from the matrix without the collapse of the whole. You are an essential, integral thread in the fabric of existence; you deserve to exist simply because you do. The only barriers between you and love, understanding, and communication are ignorance and arrogance. ## Oneness means strengthening individuality, not blending away A recurring emphasis: oneness is not the dissolving of the individual into a homogeneous mass. Bashar's puzzle-picture analogy makes this literal — each piece of a puzzle has its own unique shape and must retain that shape in order to fill the hole it was designed to fill. If a piece attempts to change its shape and not be what it is, it doesn't fit, and the whole picture suffers. Retaining and amplifying your unique individuality, being the fullest person you can be, is "fundamentally the fulfillment of the purpose of your life" and allows the whole reality to become more cohesive. This is also why each person is described as a unique perspective of All That Is — "every one is all the different ways that the infinite has of experiencing itself, and therefore the uniqueness is to be cherished, not lost, in the creation of unity." Individuals can make agreements that create sufficiently similar experiences to seem like a shared reality, while remaining utterly unique unto themselves; attraction can arise through likeness or through the reflective likeness that opposites share. ## The Prime Radiant: physiological oneness through a single particle Bashar offers a striking cosmological image to ground this in physiology rather than only in spirit. There is, he says, only one particle — not one kind of particle, but literally a single particle — moving at infinite speed, everywhere at once, appearing next to itself over and over so rapidly that what you perceive as many particles is the same particle interacting with itself. The atoms of your body, the atoms of every other body, the atoms of every planet and star, are all this one particle in a kind of universal time-sharing. The consequence is direct: any change you make in your own pattern or vibration changes the path of that one particle, and because it is one particle, the change affects every combination of it everywhere. "Even the tiniest movement of your little finger, even the tiniest electrical surge of thought in your brain, affects the entire spectrum, the entire pattern of the entire physiological universe." The teaching is not offered to inflate the ego but to clarify that every change is a total change — when you shift yourself, you are literally operating from a different universe, with its own definition of itself in that moment. ## The gears: the practical mechanic of local action The "connections, linkages, and controls" image makes interconnectedness practical. Imagine each circumstance, situation, relationship, and event in your immediate life as a gear poking through the skin of your reality bubble. Each gear is connected by a shaft to corresponding gears in every other reality bubble, in every direction and plane. When you turn any gear within your sphere, you move all the other gears — some infinitesimally, some greatly, but all of them nonetheless. The practical upending is that you do not need to go "far and wide" searching for control over the gears that seem far removed from your life. You are already connected to all of them through the gears that are present in your immediate reality. Turning the nearest gear — acting on the opportunity right in front of you, especially the one that excites you most — is what moves the whole pattern. This is also why the best control is found in the present moment: that is where all your control gears actually are. Chasing the past or future for leverage ignores the controls already in your hand. The same image explains how two people can experience the same surface circumstance differently: like the two faces of a single gear, the same turn looks like "right" from one side and "left" from the other. The mechanical balancing of perspective is built into the structure. ## Cross-connections and the wider network Beyond the immediate gears, Bashar describes an expanding web of cross-connections — including parallel reality lives existing concurrently with yours, hybrid children, and other agreements — through which you continuously download information to yourself. Expanding awareness of these cross-connections expands your sense of all that you are. As the teaching puts it: "everything that is compatible with the vibration of your true self is doing its very best to get to you. And if it can't reach you, it's not because you're not attracting it. It's because you're keeping it away." This is the experiential side of interconnectedness: as you raise your vibration, you begin to feel and see the web — the energetic connections you already have with others become visible, tangible, and experiential, which is why the same insight or experience may surface in people close to you at the same time. ## Practical implications Treat your immediate circumstances — especially the ones that excite you most — as your "gears." Acting on the nearest opportunity is how you influence the whole pattern; you do not need to chase distant leverage. Strengthen your individuality rather than blend it away. The whole picture needs your unique shape; conformity diminishes the whole. When you feel stuck or unreachable, look for where you are keeping away what is trying to reach you. The shift is from "how do I attract this?" to "what am I still pushing away?" Notice cross-connections — surprising synchronicities, parallel interests with people close to you, recurring symbols — as evidence of the network you are already woven into, not as coincidences to dismiss. Distinguish Bashar's metaphysical claims (one particle, total change, cross-connections) from empirical physics; treat them as cosmological framing within the teaching, not as scientific statement. ## Representative passages Imagine there is this one particle, just one, in all of the empty void. Imagine that this particle has the capacity to move so fast that for all intents and purposes it can move at infinite speed ... it would be next to itself so quickly that it would appear to be two, three, four, an infinite number of particles, but it's all the same particle moving so fast that it just appears to be more than one ... The subatomic particle that makes up the atoms of your body is literally the same particle that makes up the farthest star. So literally every change you make changes everything everywhere, because it is all the same particle.— Bashar, The Prime Radiant Monologue (the-prime-radiant-monologue#text) Each and every one of you is unique for a reason ... every one is all the different ways that the infinite has of experiencing itself, and therefore the uniqueness is to be cherished, not lost, in the creation of unity.— Bashar, The Prime Radiant Monologue (the-prime-radiant-monologue#text) When you turn any of the gears in your bubble, all the other gears are turning. ... You do not have to go far and wide, searching for the way to control those outside gears ... because you are already in control of them.— Bashar, Connections Linkages And Controls (connections-linkages-and-controls#qa-1) They do create their own perspective, but they can also create an agreement to share some aspects of their perspectives. In a sense, each of them can thus then create something similar in their own reality, similar enough to the other individual's reality that they seem to have a commonly shared reality, even though they are unto themselves completely and utterly unique.— Bashar, Each Individual Is A Perspective Of All That Is Bashar2.0 (each-individual-is-a-perspective-of-all-that-is-bashar20#qa-2) Everything that is compatible with the vibration of your true self is doing its very best to get to you. And if it can't reach you, it's not because you're not attracting it. It's because you're keeping it away.— Bashar, Understanding All The Cross connections You Have (understanding-all-the-cross-connections-you-have#qa-1) ## Related - [Identity](https://sassani.app/topic/identity) - [The Four Laws of Creation](https://sassani.app/topic/four-laws) - [Unconditional Love](https://sassani.app/topic/unconditional-love) - [Holographic Universe](https://sassani.app/topic/holographic-universe) - [The Prime Radiant](https://sassani.app/topic/prime-radiant) - [Parallel Realities](https://sassani.app/topic/parallel-realities) - [Uniqueness](https://sassani.app/topic/uniqueness) - [Mass Consciousness](https://sassani.app/topic/mass-consciousness) Markdown twin of https://sassani.app/topic/interconnectedness.
