:waves: solid discussion.

I side w/ NonDualistic insofar as form is an emergent property of conciousness, not vice versa. The way he originally put it was rather...dualistic--I wouldn't frame conciousness as some spirit or force outside or behind matter. There is one isness; life and human conciousness stand out not by kind, but degree of organization.

If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama
