"Other than Self" is a temporary illusion created by the ego in order to interact with the world as other. Believing in the illusion that we are separate is the primary cause of suffering.

Trying to hold on to what we want is like trying to hold water in our hand. Everything changes. When we remember that, we can appreciate all that occurs.
