namo narayana,
 
Dear Sylvain,
 
> What is the oldest hindu text that claim the importance of considering everyone as oneself, 
 
sarvam khalu idam brahma (chandogya upanishad 3.14.1) + ayam AtmA brahma (bR^ihadAranyaka upanishad 2.5.19)
 
Everything is verily brahman + Atman is brahman 
 
>loving others, 
yastu sarvaaNi bhuutaanyaatmanyevaanupashyati .sarvabhuuteshhu chaatmaana.n tato na vijugupsate  isha up. 6
 
He who sees all beings in the Self itself, and the Self in all beings, feels no hatred by virtue of that realisation 
 
>or advaita ideas ?
 
To my knowledge, the phrase 'advaita' or non-dual comes from the mandukya upanishad verse 7.
 
I don't know if i am correct with the above but I pray to the scholars to correct me if i have made any mistakes.Kind regards,Krunal
