All things are at their essence 'one thing'. There is One whole which has created a deep religious and mystical tradition identifying unity and singleness with goodness and therefor diversity and difference as bad. In all religions the essence of the belief is that of One God (even within Christianity, where the Trinity is well known, the eventual source is always One.) At first One was thought of as not even being a number at all since all other numbers are made from it - and it was seen as combining both opposites of odd and even and therefore all other opposites in the universe; because of this it was the number 10 that was seen as completion and perfection since it completed the series of essential numbers (1-9) and brought them all back to unity (10 = 1 + 0 = 1).
