The Trinity shows that the highest unity is not the lonely, indivisible one, the isolated monad that is completely unrelated to anything. Or as Benedict says, unity is not “the indivisibility of the atom, the smallest unity, too small to be divided up; the authentic acme of unity is the unity created by love. The multi-unity which grows in love is a more radical, truer unity than the unity of the ‘atom.’ ”3 This unity “created by love” sets up a dialogue which is possible only because there is differentiation.
