When you start to get glimpses of the selfless nature of reality and of this mind-body process, you start to have a different relationship with it, and with everybody around you. This is anatta, selflessness. Seeing through the sense of separation, you start understanding: “I’m not separate from all of us.” The natural result is a sense of connection and caring, and you start to see that this practice is not just for your own reduction of stress. This practice is not just for ourselves—it’s for all beings.
