No-self = the largest possible you

Identification with no-self is about your expansion, not your subtraction. When you let go of the narrative that you are a separate, limited being, an innate care and concern for others comes forward. Loneliness is replaced by an investment in the common good.

Connection

As social creatures, our health flourishes when we connect with others. At root, we are all of the same source and substance.

Compassion

Our natural instinct is one of compassion, to "suffer along with" others, as well as to experience their joy.

Contribution

Acts of altruism correspond with increased happiness and longevity.  We benefit by caring for our largest self.
