The one. One is in all irrespective of whether we recognise it. When someone allows it to express itself, its immense power becomes evident, their unique skill gets illuminated to its fullest extent. That skill can encompass a wide range of possibilities, such as poetry, warriorship, cooking, singing, engineering, medicine, hospitality, and more.
When someone is confined to their physical senses, they perceive themselves solely as a physical entity. That is the case with most of us. Since our consciousness is confined to physical bodies, we tend to perceive thoughts of immense power as physical beings like superheroes, and we create the image of a hero who will come and rescue us.
In reality, this immense power is to illuminate the distinctive features hidden in everyone. The main purpose of creation is not to generate a superheroe, but rather to manifest itself through every individual, highlighting their unique qualities to the fullest extent, thus evoking a sense of super-heroism in all.
Just picture a scenario where every individual recognizes the existence of a divine force within them, allowing it to unleash their distinctiveness that is concealed within their own form, and in turn, assisting others to do the same. The final outcome will be a divine dance, showcasing a multitude of skills and expressions in collaboration.
This could be the idea of Vyasa Maharshi behind Rasa Leela, where divinity is depicted as Krishna and common people as Gopikas. Krishna is positioned between every two Gopikas to symbolize the presence of divinity in all. The great dance of the Gopikas represents every person expressing their uniqueness to the fullest potential with the awareness of divinity within.
The presence of species searching for leaders or superheroes signifies a world in the midst of evolution. A world is evolved when there's no need for a leader and everyone can fully express themselves in collaboration, recognizing the divinity that connects all.
