Which is more important? (ritual, Earth, theist, spiritual, religions)

[Master Vigil]

Would it be more important to focus more on the oneness of all things, or to focus on the separate parts? Such as the different seasons, different moon phases, different gods/goddesses, etc...? If one's focus is mostly on a certain deity, or a certain earth spirit, does the understanding of the connection of all lost or atleast put on the back burner?

Personally, I choose the 'holistic' approach; I personally think that [if one's focus......back burner] is a truism

P.s I'm trying to 'write less!'

In my opinion, one can not focus on the combined contributions of everything without understanding the individual attributes and what they provide to the combination.

If one worries about their health , do they focus only upon their feet ? Of course not . Unless their feet happen to be bothering them at the time .

I'm a Panentheist....so I prefer focusing one the ONE....but..my "work"(spirituality) often transcends tradtions and/or pantheons......

I dont think we should forget either.....there is strength in diversity....and yet we should never forget that a things are one....

Seperatness ony dissapears at the highest leves of conciouness....I see no probem with celebrating both..but never forgetting either

Do you think monotheistic religions lost their diversity?
