WE ARE COMPLETELY INTERRELATED
If we begin to surrender to ourselvesbegin to drop the story line and experience what all this messy stuff behind the story line feels likewe begin to find bodhichitta, the tenderness thats underneath all the harshness. By being kind to ourselves, we become kind to others. By being kind to othersif its done properly, with proper understandingwe benefit as well.
So the first point is that we are completely interrelated. What you do to others, you do to yourself. What you do to yourself, you do to others. |
