You Are an Extension of the Universe

Here’s an idea from one of my favorite minds of all time, Alan Watts:
Too often we create a mental division of the world, and that leads to acts of selfishness, violence, and just a general "me vs. them" mindset.
Such thinking (and living, as a result) can only lead to ultimate unsatisfactoriness. Surely division is less fulfilling than wholeness.
Everything is made of the same stuff. You're no different. You're identical to everything else that exists. What you do is what the universe does. How will that change how you live?
