- Oneness (concept) is related to Enlightenment and is referring to the experience of oneness and nonduality. The concept appears in multiple religious and mystical belief systems/philosophy. It is enlightenment attained through meditation or relaxation. It is a realisation that labelling items and actions is pointless. Those enlightened observe an object or action and do not give it a label, believing that labels no longer matter; only the senses are used, not the mind. It is perceived as a sense of lucidity.
- Oneness is an attribute of the Christian deity put forward in contradistinction to trinitarianism. Oneness is that Father, Son and Holy Spirit are all fully divine (in contrast with the lesser status of Son and Spirit associated with some beliefs), but are expressions of the one God, and not separate persons. Oneness Pentecostalism is a specific sect of Pentecostalism, although others who are not Pentecostals also believe in the 'oneness' of God: see also Unitarianism, Sabellianism and Nontrinitarianism.
