Deeper than you think, the real you, compassion...

(If you received this via email, click on the title to see the rest of the post.)

This video is even deeper than it looks:  Viewing others.   

It has imbedded in it some deep philosophical and real truths and distinctions that deserve being pointed out separately and underlined in our minds.

It shows us how we are not whatever we have or get transported in, and what is the actual YOU. (See and understand and fully "get" this, and your life will be easier:  Who Am I Really?.)

Sure, it deals with prejudice, but it makes distinctions that are really about compassion and the viewpoint that makes compassion possible - even the Buddha (and the Dalai Lama) teaches us to look at people this way, at the core, so that we see why "they are me", in the sense of all of us seeking the same thing...to avoid suffering and to gain happiness.  (See and understand and fully "get" this and your life and view of others will change dramatically upward:  Compassion - For Yourself First, And Then Others - link from there to Compassion And The Human Condition to go a little deeper.)

Learn these two things, completely and deeply, own them completely and deeply, understand them completely and deeply...and your life will be lived at a much higher and happier level...
