I didn't say it was the prevailing myth, just that it's a pervasive myth. There are many myths in which people live their lives and make their daily decisions. Think of the "one-ness" as a pop-culture myth if that helps.
Examples:
Highlander: There can only be one
The Matrix: The One
LOTR: One ring to rule them all
