We are the body of Christ. We are the continuing incarnation of the Divine. Look around and see Jesus. We who believe and trust and love each other are the manifestation of God in this place, at this time.

About This Quote

In this quote, Gandhi is saying that we are the body of Christ. The Body of Christ is a metaphor for all of humanity. The idea is that we are all a part of a greater whole, a group that is made up of each individual person. For instance, I may be a part of a body who believes in God and Christianity.

But, I cannot exist without the existence of other people who believe in God and Christianity, and they cannot exist without me. In this way, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
