Prabhupada: "One" means in quality. And in the Vedic literature we say aham brahmasmi. That means we are one in quality. Brahma-bhutah prasannatma. So now we are material-bhutah, jiva-bhutah. When we realize that "I am not this body. I am spirit soul, I am part and parcel of God," that is brahma-bhutah. Then bhakti begins.
By H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada
