The One Life is a central Theosophical concept that postulates everything in the universe comes from one single source.

THE ONE LIFE—is deity itself, immutable, omnipresent, eternal. It is “subtle supersensuous matter” on this lower plane of ours.[1]
This one life includes both what we call spirit and matter:
When we speak of our One Life we also say that it penetrates, nay is the essence of every atom of matter; and that therefore it not only has correspondence with matter but has all its properties likewise, etc. — hence is material, is matter itself.[2]
