2/15 - Depending on Others is Unstable p.21
I am depending on everyone to post something for this section ... Don't disappoint me.
Gassho, Jundo

Depending on other is unstable
It has always worried me that when I have read or heard that "we are all one" I still feel separate - even from people I consider myself close to.
Am I understanding Uchiyama correctly when I think he is telling us that we are actually each living our own unique life experience, and the "oneness" is in fact where Universal Self is living freshly through each one of us, but our experience of that, moment by moment, is ours alone?
