Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam the whole world is one family Vedas. These five concepts from the Vedanta if taken together provide us a comprehensive world-view which will greatly help us in these troubled times.1. The all-pervasive Brahmn; 2. The Atman which resides in all beings;  3. The concept of the human race as members of a family regardless   of all differences;       4. The idea that all religions are essentially different paths to the same goal; 5. The concept that we must work for the welfare of this entire ecosystem and not only for ourselves.
