From Upanishads

One drop of the sea cannot claim to come from one river,and another drop of the sea from another river as the sea is single, consistent and whole . In the same way all beings are one,there is no being that does not come from the soul, and is not part of the soul. - Chandogya Upanishad

The energy in the world flows from God at the centre and back to God.The sages see life as a wheel , with each individual going round and round through birth and death .Individuals remain on this wheel so long as they believe themselves to be separate, but once they realise their unity with God , then they break free. - Swethasvatara Upanishad
