Here, Donne most beautifully explains who after all is thee? He says that since he is involved in whole mankind, anybody who does ‘diminishes’ him. Vasudaiva Kutumbakam says Hindu philosophy, the whole world and everything in it is intrinsically connected in Oneness.

It is the truth, but we are human, and tend to forget.
